意思
Used to say a place is well-stocked.
文化背景
In places like the Grand Bazaar (Kapalıçarşı), 'yok yok' is not just a phrase but a business philosophy. Merchants pride themselves on being able to source anything for a customer. When hosting guests, a 'yok yok' table is a sign of respect and generosity. It's common for hosts to apologize for 'missing' items even when the table is overflowing. The neighborhood 'bakkal' (small grocer) is a cultural icon. Despite the rise of supermarkets, people love the bakkal because 'yok yok'—they have the specific small things you need at 10 PM. With the explosion of e-commerce apps like Trendyol or Getir, 'yok yok' is frequently used in digital marketing to emphasize that the app is a 'super-app'.
Use the Locative!
Always remember to say WHERE the 'yok yok' is happening. Use -de, -da, -te, or -ta.
Not for People
Don't use it to say someone is absent. 'Ali yok yok' does NOT mean Ali is very absent.
