뜻
Doing something together as a group.
문화적 배경
The concept of 'İmece' is the historical basis for this phrase. It refers to mandatory or voluntary communal work in a village. Turkish companies often value 'biz bilinci' (we-consciousness). 'El birliğiyle' is used to boost morale during tough quarters. During the 2023 earthquakes, 'el birliğiyle' became a national motto for relief efforts across the country. Large Turkish families often use this phrase when preparing for holidays (Bayram), where everyone has a specific role.
The 'ğ' Rule
Remember that 'birlik' becomes 'birliği' because of the vowel that follows. Don't pronounce the 'g'!
