B1 Expression フォーマル

sözü sözdür

his word is his bond

意味

Someone who keeps their promises reliably.

🌍

文化的背景

In traditional Turkish markets, a handshake and the phrase 'sözüm söz' often replace legal documents. This is a remnant of the Ahilik system where honor was the currency. In villages, a man's reputation is built over decades. Being called 'sözü söz' is the highest honor an elder can receive, often carrying more weight than wealth. Even in high-tech startups, Turkish business culture relies heavily on 'güven' (trust). Networking events are essentially 'sözü söz' testing grounds. Protagonists in Turkish dramas are often defined by this trait. A hero who breaks his word is no longer a hero in the eyes of the Turkish audience.

🎯

Use for emphasis

⚠️

Don't over use

If you say this about everyone, people will stop trusting your judgment. Save it for the truly reliable.
