意思
A toast for good health.
文化背景
In Iran, 'Be salamati' is often said while clinking glasses of 'Doogh' (a savory yogurt drink) or non-alcoholic beer. The gesture is the same as Western toasting, but the focus is on the blessing of health. In the diaspora (USA, Europe), 'Be salamati' is the standard wine toast at parties. It serves as a strong cultural identifier among Iranians living abroad. In traditional 'Luti' (chivalrous) circles, toasting is an art form. They might toast to 'the health of the one who is loyal' or 'the health of the mother.' Young Iranians use 'Be salamati' on social media as a caption for photos of food, drinks, or new gadgets, often using the hashtag #سلامتی.
The Response
Always remember the response: 'Salamat bashid'. It makes you sound very polite and fluent.
Not for Sneezes
Avoid the urge to say this when someone sneezes. It's a common mistake for Spanish/English speakers!
