뜻
To come into the presence or company of someone.
문화적 배경
Meetings often start with long pleasantries. It is rude to jump straight into business without asking about the other person's health. Visiting the sick (molāqāt-e bīmār) is considered a highly virtuous act in Iranian culture and Islam. People often bring juice or flowers. In official Persian, the word 'dīdār' is often used interchangeably with 'molāqāt' in news, but 'molāqāt' is more common for the actual act of meeting. When meeting an elder or a teacher, the younger person usually initiates the greeting but waits for the elder to lead the conversation.
The 'Bā' Rule
Always remember that 'molāqāt' loves the word 'bā' (with). It makes your Persian sound much more natural.
Don't be too formal!
If you tell your Persian friends 'I want to molāqāt you,' they might think you're about to fire them or give them a performance review!

Hospital visits
If someone is in the hospital, always use 'molāqāt'. It shows you respect the seriousness of the situation.
