뜻
Offering a seat to a guest.
문화적 배경
Hospitality is considered a sacred duty. Offering a seat is the very first step of 'Mehmondorchilik' (hospitality). People here are known for being exceptionally polite. You might hear 'O'tiringlar' even for one person to show extra warmth. In the capital, 'O'tiring' is used in modern cafes and offices, often followed by 'Nima ichasiz?' (What will you drink?). Seating is often on 'kurpachas' (floor mattresses). 'O'tiring' here means 'Sit on the cushion.'
Use your hands
Always gesture toward the seat with an open palm when saying 'O'tiring.' It makes the invitation feel much warmer.
Don't just point
Pointing with one finger to a chair while saying 'O'tiring' can feel like a command to a subordinate. Use your whole hand.

The 'To'r' Rule
If you are in a traditional home, point toward the cushions furthest from the door. That is the 'To'r' and saying 'O'tiring' while pointing there is the ultimate sign of respect.
Tea follows the seat
Be prepared! Once you say 'O'tiring' and the person sits, the cultural 'timer' for you to bring tea has started.
