Quoting Audrey: Quoting caliptrix:
By the way, when someone sneezes, in English we say: "god bless you" but in Turkish it is generally: Çok yaşa "live long!" |
And what's the usual answer to "çok yaşak" ?
I think it's "beraber ...something", but i forgot the second word ...  |
A friend of mine always used to reply sen de gör! when someone wished him "çok yaşa"..
You could also just say "thanks"

When someone sneezes we say ' Çok yaşa!' and the other one replies with one of these phrases:
1.Sen de gör.
2.Beraber/birlikte yaşayalım.
3.Teşekkürler.

Let us live it (a long life) together
Quoting Audrey:
and 'sen de gör', see too ?

in English it would be sth like 'You see (have) a long life too'

I have learnt that "hep birlikte" or "hep beraber" are commonly used for answering to "cok yasa".
