뜻
Giving someone the freedom to decide.
문화적 배경
This phrase is a cornerstone of Ta'arof. It allows both parties to avoid appearing selfish. Even if you have a preference, you say 'Har tor māyelid' to show respect. In Iranian business, hierarchy is important. Using this phrase with a superior shows you acknowledge their authority without being a 'yes-man.' In modern Tehran, the phrase is sometimes shortened in speech to 'Har tor māyelin,' reflecting the local accent's tendency to turn 'id' into 'in'. In Afghanistan, the phrase 'Har taur ke mayl-e shomāst' is more common, which is slightly more formal and traditional.
The Ta'arof Bounce
If someone says this to you, don't just pick an option immediately. Say 'No, you decide' (Na, shomā befarmaid) once before finally choosing. This is the 'Ta'arof Bounce.'
Avoid Indifference
Ensure your voice sounds warm. If you sound bored, 'Har tor māyelid' can sound like 'I don't care, leave me alone.'
