뜻
With extreme attention to every detail.
문화적 배경
In the Ottoman era, masters of 'Tezhip' (gold illumination) were expected to work with such precision that their brushes were made of a single cat hair. The concept of 'Sırat' (the bridge to heaven) being thinner than a hair influenced the language to value extreme spiritual and moral precision. Turkish state institutions are known for their 'kılı kırk yaran' (meticulous) paperwork requirements, which can be frustrating for citizens. In Turkish universities, a 'kılı kırk yaran' professor is one who is respected for their rigor but feared for their grading.
