A common farewell, indicating that one expects to meet again.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Iranians often combine multiple farewells. You might hear 'Khoda-hafez, ghorbanat, ta daf'e ba'd' all in one breath. TV hosts in Iran use this phrase to maintain a 'warm' connection with the audience, often adding 'dar panah-e hagh' (in God's protection). In Iranian universities, students use this with professors to show they are committed to the next lecture. On Instagram, Persian influencers use 'تا دفعه بعد' to tease the next part of a story or a giveaway.
