意思
To hinder someone's progress or disturb their work.
文化背景
The phrase is deeply tied to the city of Sinop, where Diogenes was born. There is even a statue of him there holding a lantern. Turks value 'imece' (collective work), but 'gölge etmek' is a warning against 'micromanagement' which is often disliked. The word 'ihsan' (favor) in the full idiom is an Ottoman-era word, giving the phrase a classical, dignified feel. The idiom is frequently used in song lyrics to tell an ex-lover to stop interfering with one's new life.
Use it for 'Backseat' drivers
If someone is telling you how to drive while you are driving, 'gölge etme' is a perfect (if slightly rude) response.
Tone matters
Saying this with a smile makes it a joke; saying it with a flat face makes it a serious boundary.
