意味
Wishing someone recovery from illness.
文化的背景
It is common to say 'Geçmiş olsun' even to strangers. If you see someone sneeze on a bus, or if a waiter drops a tray, saying it is a sign of being a 'kibar' (polite) person. When visiting a sick person (hasta ziyareti), you never go empty-handed. Cologne (kolonya) and sweets or soup are standard, and 'Geçmiş olsun' is the first thing said upon entering. On social media, if someone posts a photo from a hospital or mentions a problem, the comments will be 90% 'Geçmiş olsun' or 'G.O.' (the shorthand version). Sometimes people follow 'Geçmiş olsun' with 'Nazar değdi' (The evil eye touched you), implying the misfortune was caused by envy, which helps the person feel less 'at fault' for their luck.
The 'Size de' Rule
If someone says 'Geçmiş olsun' to you, always respond with 'Sağ ol' (informal) or 'Teşekkür ederim' (neutral). If the situation affected them too, say 'Size de geçmiş olsun.'
Avoid the 'Death' Trap
Never use this for a death. It's the most common mistake for foreigners and can be seen as very insensitive.

よくある質問
4 問Yes! If a friend goes through a breakup, 'Geçmiş olsun' is a kind way to acknowledge their pain and hope they move past it.
Absolutely. It's a neutral, respectful phrase. For extra respect, use 'Geçmiş olsun Efendim' or 'Size geçmiş olsun.'
You can still say it. It acknowledges that they *were* sick and you are glad it's (hopefully) over.
In texting, people sometimes just write 'G.O.' or 'Gecmis olsun' without the Turkish characters.
