Farsi · Pronunciation Guide
Say "AH-reh" — a long "ah" like in "father," then a quick, light "reh" tap at the end.
āre
As a casual interjection, āre is typically stressed on the first syllable ("Ā-re"), unlike most regular Persian words which stress the final syllable — informal exclamations like this are a common exception to the rule.

"Āre, hāzeram" (آره، حاضرم) is a casual, everyday way to say "yes, I'm ready" — āre is the informal counterpart to the more formal/written baleh, and you'll hear it constantly in spoken Tehrani Persian but rarely see it in formal writing.
Learners often default to the textbook baleh for every "yes," but native speakers overwhelmingly use āre in casual conversation — sticking only to baleh in everyday chat can sound stiff or overly formal, almost like always saying "affirmative" instead of "yeah."
