44: May it be easy!


Kolay gelsin! = More power to your elbow! May it be easy! 



Cultural Tip
The literal meaning of "kolay gelsinis "may it come easy for you". Use it when you approach someone who’s working, or say it to a taxi driver after you have reached your destination. It is like saying "Have a good one!", or "Godspeed and good luck!". When you say "kolay gelsin", you are actually wishing that whatever that person is doing at the moment, it may be easy for him. The reply for "Kolay gelsin" is “Teşekkür ederim” [=thank you].
