iyi ki sen varsin yoksa kime yazacktim bunlari

This is not a word for word translation but I think.....

It is good you are here or who else would I write to about these things.

Confirmation or corrections gratefully received

Thanks

your translation is actually good, but I just modified a little

 Thanks for your help Dilli.

And your English is far better than mine!!

"It is good you are here, otherwise to whom would I write about these things?"

Actually,very few people would actually say ´to whom......´ even though it is grammatically correct.

Tina´s ´who would I write to .........´ is more usual.

 Thanks Sonunda. Any idea how to say "keep smiling". Thanks

Gülümsemeye devam et!  maybe?

Anyone?

Thank you It is good to know what is used more frequently.

keep smiling=> gülümsemeye devam et. (sonunda was faster )

keep smiling=> gülümsemeye devam et.

OMG-that´s what I said! Thanks dilli!

 thanks Sonunda and thanks for the confirmation dilli. Maybe it will cheer him up - I think the season is very quiet so far!!

I have been writing formal articles about science for some days (even at the moment!) so I get further and further away from the daily language
