معنی

Agreeing that something is true.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

In Turkish 'sohbet' (social talk), saying 'Doğru' or 'Haklısın' frequently is not seen as interrupting; it is seen as being an engaged and polite listener. The concept of 'doğruluk' is a pillar of Alevi-Bektashi and Sufi traditions in Turkey, symbolizing the 'Straight Path' to divine truth and moral perfection. In business, 'doğru' is used to confirm the terms of a deal. Using 'Doğrudur' (It is indeed correct) adds a layer of formal commitment to the statement. On Turkish Twitter and Instagram, 'Doğru' is often used as a single-word comment to agree with political or social critiques, similar to 'This' in English.

💡

The Nodding Rule

When you say 'Doğru' in agreement, a slight single nod of the head makes you sound much more native.

⚠️

Avoid 'Doğru' for Offers

Never use 'Doğru' to accept food or drinks. It sounds like you are confirming a fact about the coffee rather than wanting it.
