뜻
Encouragement for learning new things.
문화적 배경
Traditionally, Turkish schools were very strict about accuracy. However, in the last 20 years, there has been a massive shift toward 'student-centered' learning where this phrase is now a staple. In the booming tech scene of Levent and Maslak, this phrase is used to encourage 'agile' development and rapid prototyping. Modern Turkish parents use this to break the cycle of 'el alem ne der' (what will others say), encouraging children to be more independent. Turkish people are generally very helpful and patient with learners. They will often use this phrase to make you feel at ease.
