Sizi bir türlü çekemeyen kişilere karşı kazandığınız başarılar, onları güç duruma düşÃ¼recektir

Quoting mamamia:

The successes you achieve against people who can't stand you will reduce their power.

Thank you!
I thought çekemeyen to be 'who are jealous on you'! But I d'not understand 'bir türlü' here?

bir türlü- not at all, definitely not (people who can't stand you at all)

Hi

Çekmek is one of those words that can mean a whole ot of things, many of them slang. To check up on this after your Q I looked it up on the dictionary on the left. It gives 47 uses of çekmek! No 13 is:

13. /ı/ to bear, endure, put up with, suffer (an illness, pain, sorrow, trouble, a troublesome person).

Ayla answered your Q about bir türlü.

So literally bir türlü çekemeyen is "those who cannot put up with you at all" That sounds really funny in English so I put themore natural translation "those who can't stand you".
