Using time for an activity.
Contexto cultural
Spending time in a 'Çayxana' is a vital social ritual for men, where 'vaxt keçirmək' involves tea, backgammon, and community news. Hospitality means you should never look like you are in a hurry to leave; spending time is a sign of respect to the host. Like everywhere else, Azerbaijanis use 'vaxt keçirmək' to describe their social media habits, often with a hint of guilt. In villages, 'vaxt keçirmək' is often tied to the seasons and agricultural cycles, like spending time in the 'bağ' (garden).
Use with '-la'
Always remember to use the suffix '-la' or '-lə' when you are spending time with a person.
Don't say 'Vaxt keçmək'
This means time is passing by itself. You need 'keçirmək' to be the active participant.
