IRIB2: مهمانان ویژه
Greetings,
How do you say “I dare you to (do it)”, please?
I wonder if you can use ‘جرئت’ here.
The context was lovers’ banter: the girl said to the man, “Okay, now propose to me so I can say no.”
The man replied, “I dare you to say no!”
Best wishes, and many thanks,
Simon

An orthographic note:
Both جرأت and جرئت are correct, but the second form seems to be more preferable.
