What locals actually say

Come on, let’s go.

Hayde, em herin.

“Hayde” is the Turkish-derived everyday call used in Türkiye; a more neutral choice would be “Were.”

Don’t worry.

Meraq neke.

“Meraq” comes from Turkish “merak” and is commonly used in Türkiye instead of a more formal reassurance.

Okay, I’m coming.

Tamam, ez têm.

“Tamam” is a frequent Turkish loan in casual Kurmanji in Türkiye, while “ez têm” keeps the direct present form for “I’m coming.”

Can I pay by card?

Ez dikarim bi kartê bidim?

The instrumental construction bi kartê signals the means of payment, specifically paying by card.

Please make it without meat.

Bê goşt be, ji kerema xwe.

The preposition bê means without and signals that the dish should contain no meat.

My father is at home.

Bavê min li malê ye.

The ezafe construction bavê min links the noun with its possessor and signals my father.

I have to go to work.

Divê ez biçim ser kar.

The construction divê plus the subjunctive biçim signals obligation, while ser kar means to work.

It’s raining again.

Dîsa baran dibare.

The present-tense form dibare signals rain falling now, and dîsa means again.
