🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Most 'iyi fikirler' in Turkey are born during long tea sessions. If someone says 'İyi bir fikir' while sipping tea, they are likely ready to discuss it for another hour. In Turkish business, hierarchy matters. While a subordinate can say 'İyi bir fikir' to a boss, adding 'Efendim' (Sir/Madam) makes it much more respectful. When a guest suggests something, a Turkish host will almost always say 'İyi bir fikir' to make the guest feel valued and heard, even if they don't fully agree. In Turkish universities, 'fikir' is treated with great respect. Debating whether something is an 'iyi fikir' is a common intellectual pastime.
