意思
To ask for someone's thoughts or opinion on a subject.
文化背景
Asking for an opinion is a key part of 'Ta'arof'. It shows you don't want to be 'khod-ray' (self-opinionated/dictatorial). In the fast-paced life of Tehran, this phrase is often shortened in speech to 'Che fekri mikonin?' (dropping the 'd'). Among Iranians living abroad, this phrase is often used to maintain a sense of cultural connection and polite discourse even when speaking a mix of Persian and English (Pinglish). In these circles, 'Fekr' is treated with great weight. Asking this question can lead to a long, philosophical discussion rather than a simple 'yes' or 'no'.
Use it to be polite
If you're not sure what to say next, ask 'Shoma che fekri mikonid?'. It gives you time to think while making the other person feel important.
Watch the 'i'
Don't forget the 'i' at the end of 'fekr'. Without it, you sound like a textbook from the 1950s.

The 'Nazar' Alternative
If you've already used 'Che fekri mikonid' twice in a conversation, switch to 'Nazaretan chist?' to sound more fluent.
Wait for the answer
In Iran, people might take a moment to give a thoughtful answer. Don't rush to fill the silence.

常见问题
10 个问题Yes, slightly. With close friends, use 'Chi fekr mikoni?' or 'Nazaret chiye?'.
'Fekr' is 'thought' (the process), while 'Nazar' is 'opinion' (the result). They are often interchangeable in this phrase.
No, for that you would say 'Be chi fekr mikoni?'. 'Che fekri mikonid' is specifically for opinions on a topic.
Start with 'Be nazare man...' (In my opinion...) or 'Man fekr mikonam ke...' (I think that...).
Absolutely. It is very respectful and highly recommended when speaking to parents, teachers, or older relatives.
It's an indefinite marker. It makes the question 'What (kind of) thought are you having?' rather than just 'What thought'.
Yes, it's a great way to end a professional email when seeking feedback.
Sometimes. If you ask 'Baraye akhar-e hafte che fekri mikonid?', it means 'What are your thoughts/plans for the weekend?'.
No, it's just informal/colloquial. Slang would be something like 'Che khabar?' or 'Chi migi?'.
You would say 'Darbareye man che fekri mikoni?'.
