معنی
Urging to depart.
زمینه فرهنگی
Leaving a Turkish home is a process. You usually say 'Hadi gidelim' to your spouse first, then 'Bize müsaade' to the host. The host will almost always try to keep you for one more tea. In the fast-paced life of Istanbul, 'Hadi gidelim' is often said with a sense of anxiety about traffic. It's a pragmatic tool for survival in a mega-city. In classic Turkish movies, the hero often says 'Hadi gidelim buralardan' (Let's go away from here) to the heroine, suggesting a romantic escape from social pressures. Young people often use 'Hadi kaçalım' instead of 'gidelim' to sound cooler and imply that the current location is boring.
