意味
A male youth.
文化的背景
In Azerbaijan, a 'cavan oğlan' is expected to be the primary helper in social settings. If you are a young man visiting, expect to be asked to help with physical tasks as a sign of inclusion. The concept of 'igid' (brave youth) is closely tied to 'cavan oğlan'. It's not just about age, but about a spirit of bravery and honor. In Baku, the term 'cavanlar' (the young ones) is often used to refer to the trendy, tech-savvy generation that frequents coffee shops in the city center. In villages, 'cavan oğlan' often implies someone who is ready to start a family. Neighbors might ask his parents when the 'toy' (wedding) is.
