معنی
we are leaving shortly
زمینه فرهنگی
Leaving too quickly after a meal can be seen as rude, as if you only came for the food. 'Birazdan gideriz' helps bridge the gap between eating and leaving. When you say you'll leave soon, hosts often offer a 'yolluk' (something for the road), usually one last glass of tea or a small snack. In Istanbul, 'birazdan' is usually literal. In rural Anatolia, it is a much more relaxed concept and could involve another hour of conversation. Turkish people are famous for having long conversations while standing at the open door. 'Birazdan gideriz' is often said multiple times during this phase.
The Softener
Use this phrase to soften the news that you have to leave. It makes you sound like a guest who values the host's time.
Don't be too literal
If a Turk says 'birazdan gideriz,' don't stand at the door immediately. Wait for the natural pause in conversation.
