Yorulma

Don't get tired

Signification

A polite phrase said to someone working.

🌍

Contexte culturel

Saying 'Yorulma' is considered a 'savab' (good deed) in a social sense. It builds immediate rapport with strangers. In the fast-paced capital, it's often shortened or combined with 'Asan gəlsin' when entering small shops. In villages, the phrase is often followed by an offer of help or food, reflecting deep hospitality. It is used to acknowledge the 'invisible' work of janitors and security guards, which is a key part of Azerbaijani social etiquette.

🎯

The Double Greeting

Combine it with 'Salam' for maximum politeness: 'Salam, yorulmayasınız!'

⚠️

Watch the Suffix

Never use 'Yorulma' with someone older than you; it sounds like you are talking down to them.
