Working together or physically holding hands.
خلفية ثقافية
The 'Halay' dance is the physical embodiment of 'el ele'. Dancers link fingers or hands to show they are one body. The tradition of 'İmece' (collective work) is the historical root of the metaphorical 'el ele vermek'. In Turkey and surrounding regions, same-sex friends holding hands is a sign of deep platonic friendship, though this is less common in modern cities. The hashtag #Elele is frequently used during national donation campaigns or social justice movements in Turkey.
