Hi,

Could someone kindly tell me what does "DEGMEN BENIM GAMLI YASLI GONLUME" mean?

Thank you in advance

Your touch to my sad old heart

Thank you for your reply, I acually meant YASLI not YAŞLI, it has the same meaning as GAMLI " SORROWFUL. But "DEGMEN" does it mean YOUR TOUCH or FOR TOUCHING MY SAD SORROWFUL HEART, Can you explain it a little more?

Thank you very much 

Değmen = DO NOT touch

In standard Turkish (Istanbul) it is written as değmeyin (2nd pl person imperative form)

"Değmen" form m is used in rural areas.

You got me confused here

O zaman senin değmen ne anlama gelir ?

I cannot see "senin" in it

When there is benim, usually there should be possessive suffix for first person (i.e -m)

Değmen benim gamlı yaslı gönlüme

Do not touch to my sorrowful and in mourning heart

Yas = mourning

 Then in YOUR opinion what means "değmen" ?

Thank you so much for you explanation

Aklım başım karıştı sonradan yaptığım hatamı anladım

anyway thank you Si !!

 -men, in some accents, is short form of -meyin.

gitmen (gitmeyin), kalman (kalmayın)

değmen benim ... - don´t touch my ...

But if you place possessive adjective before the word, the meaning changes:

senin değmen - your touch

değ(mek) => touch (verb)

değ-me => touch(ing) (noun)

benim değmem

senin değmen

onun değmesi

bizim değmemiz

sizin değmeniz

onların değmesi/değmeleri

Vallah the last thing is what I was thinking about.

But later on I thought, people use it like benim değmem senin değmen but it actually has to be benim değmenim senin değmenin etc...

So anyway it wouldnt be correct..

I just checked with my husband and he explained me there isnt anything like değmenim değmenim because of not being a property. So I am all wrong here.

Anyway sorry I didnt want to confuse you all 

Don´t worry, Melike, we are all learning here. Thank you all for your comments, it is interesting that "colloquial" "değmen" can in fact mean "değmeyin" (I wonder if I could ever read about it in some grammar book...)
