Contexto cultural

The concept of 'Hayır' is central. It doesn't just mean 'good,' but implies a divine blessing that brings peace and prevents future trouble. Turkish business people often use this at the signing of a contract to acknowledge that the real work (and the risk) starts now. Farmers use this when planting crops, reflecting a reliance on nature and fate for the harvest. Used ironically or with 'Hadi hayırlısı' when someone makes a questionable fashion choice or starts a strange new hobby.
