ayıb et
/ajɯb et/
Literal translation
make [it my] fault
Intended meaning
Said to stake one's word on a claim: if what the speaker says turns out not to be so, the hearer may hold the speaker at fault.
- How tamamdı, it talağanlay etgense, ayıb et, endi ol seni bahçaŋa janlasa, – dedi başhası."Yes, that's enough, you've handled him as if a dog had savaged him — blame me if he comes near your garden now," said the other.
