Girls can use "canimsin" to both friends or lovers. if a boy say this to a girl they are most likely lovers. but if a boy says this to another boy run away at once.

your situation is different. because sender added "kanki" after "canimsin" at sentence. so he regard you as friend. (what a trick.)

thanks kedinegro! it was kanki not kanko unless they are one in the same. But yes arkadas friend. I knew that canim could also mean my soul and you are very correct. I think in my case the meaning was the other of my sweetheart as there seems to be more than one meaning for this word canim or canimisin.

 

What happens when we had the imin to the end of kanki = kandimin?

Bitanecik kankimin

Quoting SuzieCarol

ok i think adding im makes it you are my.

im = you are my

 

not sure if i am correct.

I would think

-im = my 

-in = your

-sin = you are

-imsin = you are my -

kankımsın
