A2 Expression 正式

لطفاً اجازه دهید

lotfan ejaze dahid

Please allow me

意思

A polite request for permission to do something.

🌍

文化背景

Asking for permission is a core part of Ta'arof. Even if you are entitled to something, asking for it makes you look 'ba-adab' (polite/well-bred). In the chaotic Tehran metro, this phrase is your best friend. It is the only way to move through the dense crowds without causing offense. Students in Iran are very respectful. They will never speak without first saying 'Ejāze?' or 'Lotfan ejāze dahid.' When visiting an Iranian home, you should ask for permission before entering rooms other than the main guest room.

💡

The Magic Word

If you forget the whole phrase, just saying 'Ejāze?' with a questioning tone is usually enough.

⚠️

Don't be too casual

Using 'Ejāze bede' with someone older than you can be seen as a lack of upbringing (bi-adabi).

The Subjunctive

Always remember to use the 'be-' prefix on the verb that follows this phrase (e.g., be-ravam, be-khonam).

💬

Ta'arof Power

Even if you know the answer is 'yes', asking shows you respect the other person's authority.

You can, but it sounds very formal. Use 'Ejāze bede' instead.

No, but it makes the request much softer and more polite.

They are the same, but 'dahid' is the more common way to say it in this specific phrase.

The most common response is 'Befarmāid' (Please do / Go ahead).

No, for 'let's go' use 'Be-rim'. This phrase is only for permission.

Yes, it is very common in formal emails and letters.

Yes, in some contexts like 'Govāhināme-ye rānandegi' (driving license), but 'Ejāze' itself is the general word for permission.

It's a shorthand for 'May I speak?' or 'May I go out?'.

Yes, 'Be-zār' (from gozāshtan) is used very casually, but it's not 'permission' in the formal sense.

Change 'man' to 'mā' and the verb to plural: 'Lotfan ejāze dahid mā beravim'.
