معنی

Describing father's job

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Engineering is considered a 'prestige' profession. In the Soviet era, being an engineer meant you were part of the 'intelligentsia'. The term 'Mühendis' is used similarly, but there is a strong distinction between 'Mühendis' (Engineer) and 'Tekniker' (Technician). In many former Soviet countries, including Azerbaijan, engineering was the backbone of the economy, leading to a high number of 'Engineer Fathers' in literature and film. In Baku, specifically, 'Engineer' often implies 'Oil Engineer' (Neft mühəndisi) due to the city's history.

💡

Drop the 'Mənim'

To sound more like a local, just say 'Atam mühəndisdir'. The '-m' already says it's your father.

⚠️

Vowel Harmony

If the job ends in a different vowel, '-dir' changes. E.g., 'Sürücüdür' (is a driver).

Azerbaijani has no gender. 'Mühəndis' works for both men and women, though 'atam' specifically means father.

No, 'Atam mühəndisdir' is perfectly correct and very common.

You can add a word before: 'Neft mühəndisidir' (Oil engineer) or 'İnşaat mühəndisidir' (Civil engineer).

It is the standard word for the profession, used in both formal and informal contexts.

Because of vowel harmony. 'Mühəndis' ends with 'i', so we use the 'i' version of the suffix.

Just change 'atam' to 'anam'. 'Mənim anam mühəndisdir.'
