Increasing speed.
خلفية ثقافية
In Istanbul, 'biraz daha hızlı' is almost a mantra for survival in traffic and crowded public transport. Waiters might use this phrase to reassure customers that their food is coming 'a bit faster' than usual. Turkish football fans often shout this at players who seem sluggish on the pitch. In traditional arts like Ebru (marbling), speed is discouraged, so you would rarely hear this phrase there.
The 'Daha' Rule
Remember that 'daha' is your best friend for comparisons. You can use it with almost any adjective to say 'more [adjective]'.
Don't be too pushy
When using this in a restaurant, add 'lütfen' (please) to avoid sounding like an impatient tourist.
