Bu öğleden sonra ben çok yorgun.
Şimdi uyumak istiyorum ama uyuyamıyorum çünkü kız arkadaşım için akşam yemeği pişirmeliyim......
This afternoon I am very tired.
Right now I want to sleep but can't because I have to cook dinner for my girlfriend.
Please correct......

Sen niçin anlatabilirsin?
I am talking about something happening now - not something that is always true......so why the aorist tense and not the present continuous tense???

uyuyamam - Can't sleep, right? It gives a moral touch to the sentence

I think, uyuyamam means "I can never sleep" << aorist tense refers on "always" (negative: "never")

evet......
uyuyamıyorum = I cannot sleep at the moment
uyuyamam = I cannot sleep at any time
doğru mu, yanlış mı?
