Asking about duration.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In social visits, asking 'Ne kadar sürer?' might be interpreted as you being in a hurry to leave. It's better to wait for the host to indicate the flow of the evening. Due to unpredictable traffic, 'Ne kadar sürer?' is often answered with 'Trafiğe bağlı' (Depends on traffic). It's a daily mantra for Istanbulites. In Turkish business culture, meetings can be long and include social talk. Asking for a strict duration at the start is becoming more common in modern corporate settings but was traditionally rare. During Ramadan, people often ask 'İftara ne kadar var?' (How long until Iftar?). While 'sürer' isn't used here, the concept of duration is central to the daily fast.
The 'Inshallah' Factor
When someone says '5 minutes', they usually mean 'soon'. Don't take the answer too literally in casual settings!
Don't use for age
Never use 'sürmek' to ask how long someone has lived. Use 'Kaç yaşındasın?'
