Contexto cultural

When giving directions, people often use their whole hand to point rather than just one finger, as it is considered more polite. In the windy city of Baku, directions are often given relative to the wind (Xazri or Gilavar), but 'oraya get' remains the standard for immediate visual targets. In villages, 'oraya get' might be followed by a description of a landmark like a specific tree or a neighbor's house. A host will rarely tell a guest 'Oraya get' without accompanying them, as it might seem like they are dismissing the guest.
