B1 Collocation ニュートラル

hesabını vermek

to be held accountable

意味

To explain one's actions to others.

🌍

文化的背景

Accountability is often hierarchical. A lower-level employee 'hesap verir' to a manager, but managers rarely 'hesap verir' to subordinates, making the phrase a marker of power dynamics. The phrase is used in the media to describe 'bringing to justice'. When a criminal is caught, the news often says 'Adalet önünde hesabını verecek'. The 'Day of Judgment' is often called 'Hesap Günü' (The Day of Account). This gives the phrase a deep, almost cosmic weight in the Turkish subconscious. Hashtags like #HesapVer (Give an account) are frequently used on Turkish Twitter to demand transparency from public figures.

🎯

Use with 'Bunun'

If you don't want to name the specific mistake, just say 'Bunun hesabını vereceksin'. It's the most common way to use the phrase in an argument.

⚠️

Don't over-use

It's a very strong phrase. Using it for small things makes you sound aggressive or dramatic.
