Usage notes

[edit]
  • Some speakers, especially those of lower social standing, seek to avoid using certain basic transitive verbs (such as qoymaq, vermək, itələmək, vurmaq, soxmaq, qayırmaq and more) which also have obscene senses in contexts where ambiguity might arise. As such, some speakers may feel the need to use a verbal reservation or disclaimer, such as pis çıxmasın (may it not sound wrong, don't misunderstand me) or türkün məsəli (as simple people say), in connection with such verbs. For example, in a dinner setting, before asking whether one's table neighbour should also be served with the same dish one is currently reaching to take, a person might say:
Pis çıxmasın, sənə də qoyum?Don't misunderstand me, shall I serve you too? (literally, “should I put to you too?”)
Such verbal reservations may be deemed as inappropriate by more cultured speakers, as disambiguating is rarely really needed, and is instead adding unnecessary vulgarity to the communication. A safer way to avoid using verbs in such contexts would be replacing them with less ambiguous ones. For example, çəkmək could be used in the sample sentence above instead of qoymaq.
