Henry, I want to make a tiny bit correction if you dont mind.

The conjunction "da" here works as " because".

In other words it is like " Mesajı samimi bulduğum için yazdım "

I wrote because I found the message sincere.

----------------------------------------------------------

sorun teşkil etmek = to be counted as a problem.,to be seen as a problem.

I guess, it [my writing to you] wasnt counted as a problem by [you].

in other words;

And I guess it[my writing to you] wasnt a problem for you.

 

 

Thanks again, I often have problems translating the separated da/de

I have problems with translating and understanding the next sentence

ben uyumayacağımdan açık cam ilen gayet mutluyum.

uyumayacağım = I will not sleep

açık cam = open window/clear glass

ilen = with/the one with??

gayet mutluyum = I am quite/really happy

I am really happy, I will not go to sleep because I have an open window.

Help!!! {#emotions_dlg.confused} Is it because others can see what he is doing?

He´s not hiding anything?

I will not lose any sleep because I do not hide anything, and that makes me very happy???????

 ben uyumayacağımdan ---> Because I will not  sleep [  here the suffix "dan" is used as " because" --> I know its too much "because " Henry ]

 açık cam ile gayet mutluyum ---> I am quite happy with open cam [camera]

"cam " is an abbreviation of "web cam" in net lang.

Obviously the other person is leaving the web cam conversation and she [supposedly] asks him to turn off his web cam. And he says " it is no point to turn off webcam as[because] I wont be able to go to bed [let it stay open] , I am quite happy with open webcam".

Daha karpuz kesecektik.

We will cut more watermelon. (i guess from the letter this kind of means we will discuss more, or go into more detail)

i tried, but i have no idea what it means... i just tried because i want to test my skills.... and check how others translate. i think my translation should be ignored...

 

We all want to learn and improve our skills. I laugh when I see some of my poor translation attempts from earlier. Your translation attempt was useful to me too, and after all the effort involved, it is always worth posting. Smile

1 comment, the suffix ecek + tik is a combination of future and past tense, and means - about to ....., would ....... (it is different to will, keseceğiz = we will cut)

 Rica ederim Henry, But I can understand you that it must be terribly confusing when we get  broken Turkish texts which consists of silly jokes,incomplete words, typing errors,wrong usage, written with poor grammar..You know chat conversations are the most difficult ones for foreign speakers to translate and make it sense. Even for us it is sometimes like a riddle.Therefore you are doing great !

Tamam zaten eklemem de çok içten bişi sorcam.

-------------------------------    bir şey soracağım.

----------------------------------------------------------

Tamam = ok.

zaten = anyway

ek = appendix, addition

eklemek = to add

ekle +me [negative form in aorist tense] + m [person] = I dont add, I wont add, I wouldnt add.

de = another function of "de" here  works as "but"

çok içten = in this case it is " very sincerly", "honestly"

bir şey = a thing, something

soracağım = I will ask

----------------------------------------------------------

Ok. I wouldnt add [you --->guessing, it could also be somebody else ] anyway, but sincerely [honestly] I will ask you something ´

-----------------------------------------------------------------

And the last sentence is also too complex for me {#emotions_dlg.confused}

Tamam zaten eklememde çok içten bişi sorcam, ikide bir by demek temel bi içgüdü mü yoksa gerçekten bi işi var-ki bu saatte zor - yada uyumak falan mı istiyorsun?

Tamam - ok

zaten eklemem de

- besides, I can´t add also/because won´t add (you?) but 

çok içten birşey soracağım,

- I will ask something very sincere

ikide bir by demek temel bi içgüdü

- is it both .......???????

yoksa gerçekten bir işi var

- or truly he/she has a job

ki bu saatte zor

- that is difficult at this time

yada uyumak falan mı istiyorsun? -

or do you want to sleep or (do) something (else)?

ikide bir ---> Every two seconds

by demek ---> Saying bye

temel bir içgüdü mü --> is [it] a basic instinct ?

yoksa gerçekten bir işi var ---> or she really has some work to do

-ki bu saatte zor - --> which [that] is difficult at this time

ya da uyumak falan mı istiyorsun ? --> or do you want to go to bed or what ?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is saying "byee" every two seconds a basic instinct ? Or she really has some work to do-which is difficult [slight possibility] at this time [of the night]- or do you want to go to bed or what ?

The way this clip is tied to the non-linguistic context makes it extremely difficult. I would have given up. You are one persistent person also, Henry.
