뜻
Delaying to get more time for a task.
문화적 배경
In Turkish business culture, 'zaman kazanmak' is often achieved through hospitality. Offering tea or coffee is not just a courtesy; it's a strategic way to build rapport and buy time to think during a negotiation. Turkish dramas are famous for long, dramatic stares. Fans often joke that these stares are just the directors trying to 'zaman kazanmak' to fill the 2-hour episode length. Turkish football fans are very vocal about 'zaman kazanmak'. If an opposing player lies on the ground too long, the stadium will erupt in whistles, accusing them of 'winning time' unfairly. Turkish students often use 'zaman kazanmak' during oral exams (sözlü) by repeating the teacher's question slowly or asking for the question to be clarified.
Use with 'için'
Always use 'zaman kazanmak için' (to buy time) to explain your purpose.
Don't say 'satın almak'
Even though English says 'buy', Turkish never uses 'satın almak' for time.
