معنی
Adapting to a new situation.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Turkish offices, 'ayak uydurmak' often refers to the social 'rhythm' of the office, such as tea breaks and informal communication, as much as the work itself. The phrase has a historical connection to the Mehter band, where marching in sync was a symbol of the Sultan's power. In cities like Istanbul, the pace of life is extremely fast. 'Ayak uydurmak' is a common topic of complaint and pride among residents. Older Turks often use this phrase when talking about their struggle or success in using smartphones and social media.
