意思
To transfer possession of something to someone else.
文化背景
The concept of 'Ta'arof' means you should never accept a gift or an offer the first time it is given. You should say 'Na, kheyli mamnun' (No, thank you very much) at least twice before accepting. Eidi is the tradition of giving crisp new banknotes to children and younger family members. It is a symbol of blessing and prosperity for the coming year. During the month of Muharram, people 'give' free food (Nazri) to neighbors and strangers as an act of devotion and charity. In Iranian business culture, 'giving' your word (ghol dâdan) is taken very seriously, often more than a written contract in traditional bazaars.
The 'Be' Rule
Always remember the 'be' (to). In English, we say 'Give me,' but in Persian, it's always 'Give TO me.'
Slang Caution
Avoid using 'dâdan' as a standalone verb in very casual street settings without a clear object, as it can be misinterpreted as sexual slang.

Ta'arof Timing
If someone offers you something, say 'Na, mamnun' twice. On the third time, you can accept. This makes you look very cultured!
