Signification
Asking someone to say something again.
Contexte culturel
Using the formal 'Siz' (you plural) and the '-ın' suffix is vital. Even if you are older than the person, if you don't know them, use the formal form. In the fast-paced capital, people might speak very quickly. Don't be shy to use 'Təkrarlayın' multiple times; it's seen as a sign of interest in the conversation. While the word is the same, the accent might be more melodic. You might hear 'Təkrar elə' (informal) more frequently in casual speech. Repetition is the core of the 'Soviet-style' education legacy still present in some areas, where rote memorization is common. 'Təkrarlayın' is a constant refrain in classrooms.
The 'Zəhmət' Rule
Always pair 'Təkrarlayın' with 'Zəhmət olmasa' for instant respect from locals.
Don't just say 'Nə?'
Saying 'Nə?' (What?) is considered very rude. Use 'Təkrarlayın' instead.
