A1 Expression ニュートラル

Bir kere

Once

意味

A single time.

🌍

文化的背景

Parents often use 'bir kere' to express long-standing frustration. It implies that the child never listens, and they are asking for a single exception. In talk shows or street interviews, starting with 'Bir kere...' is a classic way to seize the floor and establish authority. Some believe doing something 'bir kere' (like sneezing) might be a sign, leading to the phrase 'bir kere daha' (one more time) to break the luck or bad omen. When offering food, a host might say 'Bir kere tadına bak' (Just taste it once) to be persuasive without being overbearing.

🎯

Sound more native

Drop the 'r' in 'bir' when speaking casually. Say 'bi' kere' to sound like a local.

⚠️

Watch your tone

Starting with 'Bir kere...' can sound aggressive if your voice is loud. Keep it soft if you just mean 'firstly'.
