معنی
A plate with no food on it.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Azerbaijani homes, an empty plate is often immediately refilled by the host. If you want to stop eating, you must explicitly say you are full. Similar to Azerbaijan, in Turkey, leaving a plate 'boş' at a guest's house is a sign that the host should bring more food or tea. In Tabriz, the 'Taarof' system applies. You might refuse food even if your plate is 'boş' as a sign of politeness. In Uzbek and Turkmen cultures, the 'boş qab' is often replaced by a 'boş kasa' (empty bowl) for tea, which is refilled only halfway to keep it hot.
Ordering extra
If you are sharing a large dish (like a 'Saj'), always ask for 'boş qablar' for everyone at the table.
The 'Beş' trap
Be careful not to order 5 plates when you just want one empty one!
