뜻
A common question asking about someone's well-being.
문화적 배경
Asking 'How are you?' is the first step of Ta'arof. It is often followed by asking about one's family (Hāl-e khānevāde chetor ast?). In fast-paced Tehran, the formal 'ast' is almost always shortened to 'e' in speech, even in formal settings. In Dari Persian, 'Chutor hasti?' is common, but 'Hāl-e shomā chutor ast?' remains the gold standard for formal respect.
The Ta'arof Loop
Expect to exchange greetings for at least 30 seconds before getting to the point of the conversation.
Spoken vs Written
In speech, change 'ast' to 'e' to sound more natural, even when being formal.
