뜻
Moving or doing things quickly.
문화적 배경
The proverb 'Acele işe şeytan karışır' (The devil interferes in hurried work) is taught to every child. It encourages patience and doing things right the first time. In Istanbul, 'acele etmek' is a survival skill. The city's pace is much faster than the rest of the country, and people are constantly rushing to beat traffic. When hosting guests, you should never 'acele etmek'. Rushing a guest to finish their tea or leave is considered very rude. You will often see signs on highways saying 'Acele giden ecele gider' (He who goes in a hurry goes to his death). It's a grim but effective warning against speeding.
Use 'Acelem var'
If you are in a taxi or a shop and need to leave, 'Acelem var' (I have haste) sounds more natural than 'Acele ediyorum'.
Avoid 'Acele Yapmak'
This is the #1 mistake. Always use 'etmek' with 'acele'.

The Tea Rule
Never tell someone to 'acele et' while they are drinking tea. It's the ultimate relaxation time in Turkey.
Softening the Command
Add 'biraz' (a bit) to make it softer: 'Biraz acele edebilir misin?'
