probably you mean bena ->bana?

and not sena -> sana

in that case "ben" is translated as "I" in

Ben seni seviyorum - I love you

and bana - me:

Ex: Sarýl bana - hug me

same with sen (you) sana (you)

sen is the subject  pronoun

sana - object pronoun

 

i hope I didn´t make it complicated. Just trying to help.

Ben = me, i

bana = to me

 

ben seni seviyorum - i love you

ben gidiyorum - im going

 

senin resmini gönder bana - send (to) me your picture

ver bana - give (to) me

gel bana - come to me

 

just like that:

sen = you (singular)

sana = to you (singular)

Quoting hadar

Ben = me, i

bana = to me

 

ben seni seviyorum - i love you

ben gidiyorum - im going

 

senin resmini gönder bana - send (to) me your picture

ver bana - give (to) me

 

 

 one change to the above. And if I am learning correctly then the following is the correct order:

 

Bana senin resmini gönder

bana ver

Only learning though so......

bana senin resmini gönder= senin resmini gönder bana.

bana ver= ver bana

 

these sentences have the same meaning with a slight difference in emphasis.

I think learners should follow tinababy´s suggestion.
