[bouy-roon] interjection F/P

Here you go / How can I help you? / Take a seat / Go ahead

DT: command

You’ll surely hear this phrase quite a bit considering Turkey’s exceptional hospitality culture. Listen for it when walking into a shop, when someone is giving something to you, or when you’ve entered a space with seating. Note that ‘buyrun’ is the plural/formal form so you typically won’t use it with friends.
