معنی
Telling someone to take their time.
زمینه فرهنگی
Drinking tea (çay) is a slow ritual. If you try to finish your tea too fast, your host will say 'Acele etme' to encourage you to stay longer. While punctuality is valued, building a relationship over coffee before starting a meeting is more important. 'Acele etme' is used to transition from small talk to business. In coastal cities like Izmir, the pace of life is naturally slower. 'Acele etme' is almost a local motto for enjoying the sun and sea. Turkish carpet weavers and ceramic artists use this phrase to remind apprentices that perfection cannot be rushed.
The Power of 'Hiç'
Add 'hiç' before the phrase ('Hiç acele etme') to sound extra generous with your time.
Watch the Register
Never forget the '-yin' suffix for people you don't know well.
