意思
To offer an idea or plan for consideration.
文化背景
Suggestions are often indirect to avoid appearing bossy. Using 'maybe' (shāyad) or 'if you agree' (agar movāfegh bāshid) alongside the phrase is common. In Iranian hierarchy, a junior employee might use 'pishnahād kardan' (formal) to a boss to show respect, while the boss might use 'pishnahād dādan' to the team. Younger generations often shorten the phrase or use 'nazaret chie?' (What's your opinion?) as a synonym for 'what's your suggestion?' In Dari, 'pishnahād' is also used, but the verb 'kardan' is even more frequent than 'dādan' in daily speech compared to Tehran.
Use the Subjunctive
Always remember that 'pishnahād midam ke' triggers the subjunctive mood in the next verb. This is the mark of a B1+ speaker.
Don't say 'Pishnahād Goftan'
English speakers often say 'say a suggestion.' In Persian, it is always 'give' (dādan) or 'do' (kardan).

If you are rejecting a suggestion, start with 'Ghashange, vali...' (It's nice, but...) to stay polite.
Spoken vs Written
