معنی
To bicker or talk back
زمینه فرهنگی
Wrestling (Güləş) is the national sport. Using it as a metaphor for an argument shows how deeply the sport is embedded in the national psyche. In traditional families, 'söz güləşdirmək' with a father or grandfather is considered a significant sign of disrespect, much more so than in Western cultures. In 'Meykhana' (Azerbaijani rhythmic oral poetry), performers actually *do* 'wrestle with words' in a competitive but artistic way. This is a positive, skillful version of the idiom. Azerbaijani internet users often use this phrase to mock 'trolls' or people who argue in circles in the comments section of news sites.
Use it to end arguments
Saying 'Gəl söz güləşdirməyək' is a polite but firm way to stop a pointless debate.
Watch your tone
If you say this to a boss, you might get fired! It's very informal.
