意味
Response to welcome.
文化的背景
Hospitality is a point of national pride. The 'Hoş geldiniz/bulduk' exchange is the first step in a long process of making a guest feel at home, usually followed by tea and snacks. In Turkish business culture, building a relationship is as important as the deal. Using 'Hoş bulduk' correctly shows you respect Turkish customs and are a 'good' guest. When you say 'Hoş bulduk' at a home's entrance, you are usually taking your shoes off at the same time. It's a synchronized physical and linguistic ritual. Waiters and shopkeepers will almost always say 'Hoş geldiniz.' Replying 'Hoş bulduk' marks you as a polite and culturally aware customer, often leading to better service.
The 'We' Power
Always use 'Hoş bulduk' (plural) even if you are alone. It sounds much more natural and humble to Turkish ears.
Don't be the first!
Wait for the host to speak. If you say it first, it's like answering a question that wasn't asked.

Smile and Nod
Turkish social rituals are as much about body language as words. A slight nod and a warm smile while saying 'Hoş bulduk' goes a long way.
