Hi

salam, khaste nabashid

Hello — thanks for your work

Common polite greeting for shopkeepers and staff — literally 'may you not be tired.'

az diruz sardard daram o hichi komakam nakarde

I've had a headache since yesterday, and nothing has helped

do ruze sarma khordam

I've had a cold for two days

delam az dishab dard mikone, engar chizi khordam ke beham nasakhte

My stomach's been hurting since last night — I think I ate something that didn't agree with me

chizi darid ke baraye sarmakhordegi khub bashe?

Do you have something that's good for a cold?

ye mosakken ghavitar mikhastam, age darid

I'd like a stronger painkiller, if you have one

می‌خواستم (literally 'I wanted') softens the request — a common polite pattern.

bayad ruzi chand bar bokhoramesh?

How many times a day do I have to take it?

in daru bayad ba ghaza khorde beshe

This medicine has to be taken with food

in daru noskheh mikhad ya na?

Does this medicine need a prescription or not?

bedun-e noskheh nemitunid in ro bekharid

You can't buy this without a prescription

be in daru hasasiyat darid?

Are you allergic to this medicine?

behtare chand ruz esterahat konid o ab ziad bokhorid

It's better if you rest for a few days and drink plenty of water

gheimatesh ba noskheh arzuntare

With a prescription, it's cheaper

kheili mamunam, vaghean komakam kardid

Thank you so much, you really helped me
