شب بخیر

shab bekheir

Good night

意思

A farewell greeting used before going to sleep.

🌍

文化背景

Iranians often follow 'Shab bekheir' with 'Khoub bekhabi' (Sleep well) or 'Khab-haye khoub bebini' (May you see good dreams). It is considered cold to just say 'Shab bekheir' to a loved one without these additions. In Dari Persian, 'Shab-e tan khosh' is also very common, though 'Shab bekheir' is universally understood and used in urban centers like Kabul. Tajik speakers might use 'Shab ba khayr', which is the same phrase but with a slightly different prepositional structure reflecting the local dialect.

💡

The 'Ta'arof' Exit

If you are at an Iranian home, say 'Shab bekheir' when you stand up to leave, not while you are still sitting and eating fruit.

⚠️

Arrival Error

Never walk into a room and say 'Shab bekheir'. It will sound like you are immediately leaving or telling everyone to go to bed.

No, that is too early. Use 'Khoda-hafez' or 'Asr bekheir'. Use 'Shab bekheir' only after it is dark and late.

'Shab bekheir' is the standard farewell. 'Shab khosh' is slightly more formal and can sometimes be used as a greeting (Good evening).

Simply repeat it back: 'Shab-e shoma ham bekheir' (Goodnight to you too) or just 'Shab bekheir'.
