In the previous post, we briefly touched on introductions and greetings. Today, we’ll give small examples of how to greet and say goodbye in Turkish.
Greeting expressions in Turkish change depending on the time of day. In the morning (sabah), at noon (öğlen), and in the evening (akşam), we use the following expressions:
👋 SELAMLAŞMA (Greetings)
Sabah: Günaydın → (Good morning)
Öğlen: Tünaydın → (Good afternoon)
Akşam: İyi akşamlar → (Good evening)
General: Merhaba → (Hello)
👋 VEDALAŞMA (Farewells)
In Turkish, there are several ways to say goodbye:
Görüşmek üzere → (See you soon)
Hoşça kal → (Stay well -used when you are leaving)
Güle güle → (Goodbye-used when someone else is leaving)
Kendine iyi bak → (Take care)
İyi geceler → (Good night- used when someone is going to sleep or leaving late at night)
Elveda → (farewell)
Today, we learned basic greeting and farewell expressions in Turkish. These are essential phrases used in everyday communication.
