Salla gitsin

Let it go

意思

Telling someone not to worry.

🌍

文化背景

Among young people in Istanbul, 'sallamak' can also mean to lie or exaggerate. However, 'salla gitsin' always retains its meaning of dismissal. It's a hallmark of the 'cool' urban identity. In the Turkish workplace, there is a strong hierarchy. Using this phrase with a superior is a major faux pas, but using it with a peer creates a 'biz bize' (just between us) bond of solidarity against corporate stress. In coastal regions like Izmir or Antalya, the 'salla gitsin' attitude is a way of life. It reflects the 'yavaş şehir' (slow city) philosophy where stress is actively avoided. On Turkish Twitter (X), 'salla gitsin' is often used to dismiss 'trolls' or 'linç' (online mobs). It serves as a tool for digital mental health.

💡

The Shrug Factor

Always pair this phrase with a physical shrug or a dismissive hand gesture for maximum native-like effect.

⚠️

The Respect Rule

Never use this with your Turkish in-laws or your boss unless you have a very, very close relationship.

The 'Nazarlık' Combo

If something breaks, say 'Salla gitsin, nazarlık olsun' (Let it go, let it be a charm against the evil eye). It's a very common cultural response.

It's not inherently rude, but it is very informal. It's like saying 'Forget it' in English—fine with friends, but potentially dismissive with a stranger.

No, it's best for minor inconveniences. Using it for serious matters makes you seem unsympathetic.

'Boşver' is more common and neutral. 'Salla gitsin' is more slangy and has a more 'active' feeling of throwing the problem away.

Absolutely not. Stick to 'Sorun değil' or 'Rica ederim' in professional writing.

Yes, 'Sallayın gitsin,' but the singular 'Salla gitsin' is often used even when talking to a group.
