Inviting someone to take a seat
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Hospitality is paramount. If you don't offer a seat and tea immediately, you are considered a bad host. It is common to stand up when a guest enters the room. Very similar to Azerbaijan, but 'Oturun' is more common in daily formal speech than 'Əyləşin,' which sounds slightly more old-fashioned or extremely formal in Istanbul Turkish. Azerbaijanis in Iran use this phrase but often mix it with Persian etiquette (Taarof), making the invitation even more repetitive and insistent. Similar Turkic roots. The concept of the 'head of the table' (tör) is vital; you don't just say sit, you point to the 'tör.'
The Hand Gesture
Always gesture with an open palm facing upward toward the seat. Never point with one finger; it's considered aggressive.
The 'Siz' Rule
If you are using 'Buyurun, əyləşin,' you must continue the conversation using 'Siz' (formal you) and formal verb endings.

Don't be too insistent
While hospitality is important, saying it 10 times in a row can make a guest feel pressured. Twice is usually enough.
