意味
Speaking alone.
文化的背景
In some rural areas, talking to oneself is jokingly said to be a sign that you will soon become rich, though the more common belief is that it's a sign of 'delilik' (madness). With the rise of Bluetooth headphones, people often joke that they can't tell if someone is 'deli' (talking to themselves) or just on a business call. The concept of 'Nefs' (the self) involves a constant internal dialogue. Talking to oneself can be seen as a way to discipline the ego. Authors like Sait Faik Abasıyanık often depict characters who talk to themselves as a way to show their deep connection to nature or their isolation from society.
