A1 Idiom 非正式

Suyu ısınmak

To be in trouble

意思

Being about to lose one's position.

🌍

文化背景

In Turkish offices, direct confrontation is often avoided. Instead, people use idioms like this to signal that someone's performance is unacceptable before formal action is taken. Sports newspapers (like Fanatik or Fotomaç) frequently use this idiom in headlines with a picture of a coach looking worried next to a boiling pot. The idiom's link to the 'last bath' reflects a deep-seated cultural awareness of mortality and the ritualistic nature of endings in Turkish society. Younger Turks might use it for gadgets or apps that are becoming obsolete or 'cringe'.

🎯

Use with 'İyice'

Add 'iyice' (thoroughly) before 'ısındı' to sound like a native speaker when you are 100% sure someone is getting fired.

⚠️

Not for Soup!

If you are in a restaurant and the soup is getting warm, don't say 'Çorbanın suyu ısındı.' Just say 'Çorba ısınıyor.'
