BAŞLA|N|GIÇ ´beginning´

 

-geç/-giç is a derivation suffix which makes nouns from verbs. Not very common. Similarly, süz|mek ´to filter´ > süz|geç ´filter, strainer´ (the utensil).

My Try:

 

Bak yine kader sessizce örmüş ağları
Biçare gönül uzanmıyor ki kolları
Hep kara haber getirdi yaz yağmurları
Senden bihaber geçer mi ömrün kalanı?

Look, destiny has knitted its nets again silently
Such a poor heart, arms do not reach. (This line  is not clear to me.)
Summer rains brought only bad news.
Am I going to spend the rest of my life unaware of you?

-----------------------------

Karanlıklar içinden gün doğar ya aniden,
Belki öyle can bulur yarım kalan hikayemiz..
Gidecek yerim mi var?
Diyecek sözüm mü var?
Bunu eller anlamaz sana ihtiyacım var
 
The sun rises all of a sudden from darkness
Maybe our story which was cut in the middle will come to life again the same way.
Do I have a place to go?
Do I have a word to say?
That is what hands don’t understand. I need you.

You know, I think participles and infinitives are more ergative in Turkish than finite forms. There is more flexibility between active and passive. In finite forms you don´t see it so often.

A nice speech.

 

I just happened to read an article about çay today. What do kıtlama çay and tavşan kanı çay mean?

Which one is better

 

                      Konuşacak bir şey yok OR

                      Konuşulacak bir şey yok  ?

 

Is there a difference in the meaning? What if it was a possessive costruction, for instance şeyimiz?

That is what I was afraid of. This is crucial ambiguity. Does passivizing help?

 

                    Unutulması zor. ´It is difficult to forget her.´
