뜻
A polite request for repetition of something spoken.
문화적 배경
Using the plural 'you' (shomā) and plural verbs for one person is a core part of Ta'arof. It shows you are 'shrinking' your own ego to 'enlarge' the other person. In fast-paced Tehran, the phrase is often shortened to 'Lotfan dobāre begid'. The 'uy' sound in 'beguyid' is dropped in colloquial speech. In Dari Persian, 'Lotfan' is used, but you might also hear 'Meherbāni' (kindness). 'Lotfan dobāre beguyid' is perfectly understood in Kabul. Tajiki speakers use the same root but might spell it in Cyrillic: Лутфан дубора гӯед. The politeness level remains high.
The 'Bebakhshid' Sandwich
For maximum politeness, put 'Bebakhshid' at the start: 'Bebakhshid, lotfan dobāre beguyid?'
Avoid 'Chi?'
Never use 'Chi?' with people you don't know well. It sounds like you are annoyed.

자주 묻는 질문
5 질문No, it's perfect. It shows you are a polite customer. You can also use 'Bebakhshid, dobāre migid?' for a slightly more relaxed but still polite vibe.
You can say: 'Bebakhshid, mishavad āram-tar beguyid?' (Sorry, can you say it more slowly?)
No, that sounds like a command to a dog. Always include the verb 'beguyid'.
'Jān' is very common among friends. It's like saying 'Yes, dear?' or 'What was that, honey?'. It's very warm.
Not really. 'Dobāre' is 'again', 'yek bāre dige' is 'one more time'. They are interchangeable.
