意思
A common informal question about someone's well-being.
文化背景
Even when using 'Chetori?', expect the other person to say 'Ghorbanat' (I am your sacrifice) or 'Fadat' (I'm devoted to you) as a very warm, informal response. In Tehran, vowels are often softened. 'Chetori' might sound like it has a very short 'e' and a sharp 'i'. In Finglish (Persian written with Latin letters), this is almost always spelled 'Chetori?' or 'Slam chetori?'.
The 'Khubi' Combo
Most Iranians say 'Chetori? Khubi?' together. It sounds very natural.
Watch the 'i'
If you forget the 'i', you are just saying 'How', which sounds incomplete.

常见问题
6 个问题No, Persian has no grammatical gender. You can use it for anyone.
Yes, if your relationship is casual, but many still prefer the formal 'Chetorid' for respect.
The most common reply is 'Khubam, mersy' (I'm good, thanks).
'Chetori' is 'How are you', while 'Che khabar' is 'What's up/What's the news'.
Only if you are very close with your colleagues. Otherwise, stay formal.
Adding 'to' (you) makes it more emphatic and friendly.
