뜻
A polite greeting wishing someone a good day.
문화적 배경
In the fast-paced life of Tehran, 'Roozetun bekheyr' (the spoken version) is used as a quick, polite lubricant for social interactions in metros and shops. In Shiraz, the city of poetry, you might hear more elaborate versions like 'Rooz-e mobārak' or 'Rooz-e khosh', reflecting the city's gentle and artistic culture. In Dari, 'Ruz-e tan bakhayr' is also used, but 'Ruz-e shomā bakhayr' is even more prevalent in formal Afghan etiquette. Tajik speakers might use 'Rūzaton ba khayr', often written in Cyrillic as 'Рӯзатон ба хайр'. It remains a very formal and respected greeting in Dushanbe.
The 'Ta'arof' Closer
Use this phrase to gracefully end a long polite conversation. It signals that you are ready to leave without being rude.
Watch the Sun
If the streetlights are on, stop using 'Ruz' and start using 'Shab'.

자주 묻는 질문
12 질문Yes, it is perfectly fine to use it as a greeting when you first see someone, usually after 'Salām'.
Yes, it's just a shorter version. It's slightly less formal because it omits the 'your' suffix.
The most common response is 'روز شما هم بخیر' (Rooz-e shomā ham bekheyr), meaning 'Good day to you too'.
Absolutely. It is the recommended way to greet a teacher or professor.
No, it is used in Afghanistan (Dari) and Tajikistan as well, though the pronunciation varies slightly.
'-tun' is the colloquial/spoken version of the formal '-tān'. You'll hear '-tun' more often in conversation.
It's a bit formal for a child. For kids, 'Roozet bekheyr' (singular) is more natural.
While 'Khayr' has religious origins, the phrase is used by everyone in Iran, regardless of their faith.
It's better to say 'Sobh bekheyr' (Good morning) at that time.
Yes, 'Salām' is a general hello. 'Roozetān bekheyr' adds a layer of formal wishing.
Write it as 'روزتان بخیر'. Avoid the spoken 'روزتون' in writing.
It's perfect! The '-tān' suffix is already plural, so it covers everyone.
