意思
To make someone understand something.
文化背景
In Azerbaijani culture, if you are explaining something to an elder, it is polite to start with 'Sizin yanınızda olmasın...' (Not to be said in your presence, but...), implying you know they are already wise. In Baku, 'başa salmaq' is often used in a 'tough' way in street slang to mean 'to teach someone a lesson' or 'to put someone in their place'. Teachers are often judged by how well they can 'başa salmaq'. A teacher who just reads from a book is criticized for not 'putting it in the students' heads'. When hosting foreigners, Azerbaijanis take great pride in 'başa salmaq' their traditions, food, and history, often spending hours explaining the nuances of a single dish like Plov.
The 2-Step Rule
First use 'başa salmaq' (explain), then ask 'Başa düşdün?' (Did you understand?). They always go together!
Case Sensitivity
Don't forget the -ı/-i/-u/-ü on the person. 'Məni başa sal' (Explain to me), not 'Mənə başa sal'.
