Significado
Describing sunny weather.
Contexto cultural
Azerbaijan is known as the 'Land of Fire'. This is not just about oil and gas, but also the abundance of sunny days in regions like Absheron and Nakhchivan. In Baku, a sunny day is often a battle between the sun and the wind. Even if it's 'günəşli', locals will always check if the 'Xəzri' wind is blowing before leaving home. During Novruz (Spring New Year), the sun is celebrated as a source of life. A sunny Novruz is seen as a sign of a prosperous year ahead. On sunny days, the 'çayxanalar' (tea houses) move their tables outside. Drinking hot tea in the sun is a common sight, as it's believed to help the body cool down.
Vowel Harmony
Always check the last vowel of the root. If it's 'ə', the suffix must have 'i'.
Sun vs Heat
Remember that Baku can be sunny and freezing at the same time due to the wind!
