English term or phrase: my brother
Such as "hello my brother"
R. McLane
baradarm OR baradareh man
Explanation:
The latter is more formal. However, saying "hello my brother" doesn't work all that well in Farsi. Litterally, it would translate as "Salam baradaram."

I suggest you translate as "Salam baradar," which means "hello brother."
