Quoting erdinc:

If you want to be hugged you could say:
"Bana sarılsana."



What is the -sana suffix???
I cannot find it listed anywhere


Quoting erdinc:

Actually the whole concept of hugging is a bit unusual and not so common.



Do you mean that hugging is not common or that talking about it is not common or both?

Quoting mltm:

Poppy, (bana) bi kucak ver. (give me a hug)
Aşkım, (bana) bi kucak ver.

Or "bi kucak istiyorum"



Thanks!
That is what I was looking for "kucak"

Quoting mltm:

Hmm, you want a hug. you want him to hug you, or you want to hug him? And what is the context? Is he a child, a dog, a what?



In English I regularly say to any of my dogs "I want a hug" and I give them a hug. So how would I say "Poppy, I want a hug." But for completeness, how would I say "Sam, I want a hug" expecting Sam (my gf) to give me a hug???

Quoting Deli_kizin:

Yes.. sözlüğümde değil..



And I cannot find any information how to make nouns from verbs other than using the verbal noun suffix. As you say, kucaklama is "hugging" - not "hug"

So we still don't know what "I want a hug" translates as

Quoting Deli_kizin:

And i think kucaklaşma means 'the hugging', instead of just 'hug'.. But i am not sure at all



Yes - I think you are right......

But I cann't work out what hug in this context translates as

Quoting sophie:

So Bod, it seems that we have more things in common. This phone is one of them



* kıkırda *

Good 'phone isn't it.
I especially like the email client on it

Only real negative I have found with it is the inability to set recurring calendar entries

Thanks for the explanation......

So would "Poppy, I want a hug" be
Poppy, kucaklama istiyorum
That would seem to translate more as "Poppy, I want hugging"

Is there a different noun for hug???
