Learn Turkish: Kalkıp öğretmenini tersleyemezsin; haddini bil! - You cannot just up and snap at your teacher; know your place!

Not necessarily. While kalkmak literally means "to get up," using the converb kalkıp before another verb is a common way to express that an action is audacious, inappropriate, or unexpected. It is the Turkish equivalent of saying someone "just up and" did something. Here, it emphasizes the sheer nerve of snapping at a teacher.

How is the verb tersleyemezsin constructed?

It starts with the root ters (reverse/harsh). Adding the suffix -le makes the verb terslemek (to snap at / to rebuke). Next, -ye- is the inability marker (the negative of -ebil), followed by the negative aorist tense marker -mez, and finally the personal ending -sin (you). Together, it forms "you cannot / you are not able to snap at."

Where does the double 'd' in haddini come from, and what does it literally mean?

The root is the Arabic loanword had (limit or boundary). When a suffix starting with a vowel is added to certain short loanwords (like had or hak), the final consonant doubles—so had + -in (your) becomes haddin. The idiom haddini bil literally translates to "know your limits," which means "know your place!"
