I know that haydi bakalım means Come on.
haydı gidelim means Let's go.
So can I say that Haydi.... is common to english Let's ....
For example Let's dance-can it be Haydi dans ettim?
Thanks a lot!

Let's V = (haydi) V + -(y)elim
Together with haydi, sometimes it sounds better.
let's go -- (haydi) gid-elim
let's meet at 3 -- 3'te buluş-alım
let's not argue -- tartışma-yalım
let's get serious -- ciddi ol-alım
etc.

Evet
You may not use "haydi", that is also possible.
- Başlayalım mı? Shall we start?
- Evet, başlayalım! Yes, let's start!
