意味
To try to persuade someone with fake talk.
文化的背景
In Turkish 'esnaf' culture, 'ağız yapmak' is almost an art form. A good tradesman is expected to be persuasive, but a customer who knows the game will call it out to get a better price. Children often 'ağız yapar' to their parents to get what they want. Parents, in turn, use the phrase to show they are aware of the child's tactics, creating a playful but firm boundary. In big cities like Istanbul, 'ağız yapmak' is often associated with people who use too many buzzwords or 'corporate speak' to hide a lack of results. Commentators often accuse politicians of 'ağız yapmak' when they give long, evasive answers to simple questions during interviews.
The 'Bana' Rule
Always remember to use 'Bana' (to me) if you are the one being sweet-talked. 'Beni ağız yapma' is a common mistake.
Don't use with Elders
Even if an older relative is being insincere, saying 'Ağız yapma' can be seen as very rude. Use it only with peers or younger people.
