意味
Requesting someone to be serious.
文化的背景
Turkish people use 'şaka yapma' very frequently in daily banter. It's common to see people lightly hitting a friend's arm while saying it. In Azerbaijani Turkish, the phrase is 'Zarafat eləmə', which is very similar but uses the word 'zarafat' for joke. Young Turkish-Germans often mix the languages, saying 'Mach keine Şaka' (Don't make jokes). Because of the Ottoman history, many people in the Levant recognize the word 'şaka' even if they don't speak Turkish.
The 'Shock' Face
To sound like a native, pair 'Şaka yapma!' with wide eyes and a slight tilt of the head.
Watch the Tone
If said too aggressively, it can sound like you are actually angry. Keep it light for disbelief.

よくある質問
10 問It depends on who you are talking to. With friends, it's perfectly normal. With a boss, it's rude. Use 'Ciddi misiniz?' for a safer option.

Literally a 'donkey joke', it refers to a crude or physical prank that is often in bad taste.
