Quoting turkishcobra

 

I´m a Turkish native and never heard people using "götürmek" for destroy.

Well - let me make a little statement.

When you want to say "flood took the village away."

Sel suları kasabayı götürdü. Yes, it looks like "flood destroyed the village" but it has "causing something to replace." meaning.

Beni götüremezsin > you can´t destroy me. No, it sounds very rasping and does not fit it.

Trust natives, mate. Sometimes native-speaker are more assuring resources than dictionaries

 

 

no objections to being corrected by a native speaker!  just remember the ´trust a native speaker´ thing is reciprocal!  i have seen some well weird English translations on here and occasionally English native speakers not being listened to! (this is not personal to you abi)

Personally, I´ve always listened English native-speakers and never objected them. I´ve been corrected for several times by some English-natives on here and I´m always thankful to them. We´re here for reciprocal help in the end
