معنی
To remember important information.
زمینه فرهنگی
A good host always keeps in mind (akılda tutar) how their guest takes their coffee (sade, orta, şekerli). Forgetting this is a minor social faux pas. The Turkish education system traditionally emphasizes rote memorization. Teachers frequently use 'akılda tutmak' as a command for students to memorize dates, formulas, and poems. When someone gives you a warning about 'nazar' (the evil eye), they expect you to 'akılda tutmak' the advice to wear a blue bead or not show off too much. In Turkish business, relationships are key. Keeping personal details about a client's family or interests in mind is considered a sign of a good businessman.
Use with possessives
Instead of 'akılda', use 'aklımda' (in my mind) to sound more natural in personal conversations.
Vowel Drop
Don't forget to drop the 'ı' in 'akıl' when adding a suffix: akıl -> aklım.
