Say itpi-RI
Meaning
معنی۱
پیر also has a second life as the spiritual elder, the Sufi master. So piri carries dignity that English "old age" doesn't quite match. Iranian families typically keep elders at home rather than in care facilities, and elders are expected to give advice on marriages, careers, and disputes within the extended family.
