Bedeutung
Trying hard to achieve something.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The concept of 'Emek' (labor) is highly respected. Showing effort is often more important than the result in social settings. Teachers often use this phrase in reports to indicate that a student is trying, even if their grades are low. In Turkish workplaces, 'showing effort' (visible busyness) is sometimes valued as much as actual productivity.
Use with Adjectives
Add 'büyük' (great) or 'yoğun' (intense) before 'çaba' to sound more fluent.
Avoid 'Yapmak'
Never say 'çaba yapmak'. It's a classic beginner mistake!
