There are also other alternatives.......
See this article

I am currently creating a keyboard layout that allows Turkish characters to be typed without interfering with the standard English characters. As soon as I am happy with it, I will make it available to all who want it.

It was a comment for Deli, in my opinion? "you too, deli, like a Turkish person. Bravo!"
"Deli" means mad or crazy indeed, but Deli here uses "Deli" as a nick



Ah!
The lack of capitalisation is what confused me

It would very much help if people would use the Türkçe characters and capitalise proper nouns.

Quoting deli:

iyi cesaret vermek dusunurum



Something about "to give good encouragement" but what does dusunurum mean??? I assume it is a verb but can't find the infinitive in the dictionary

Quoting mltm:

Maybe, it's out of the subject, but I realized that you(Bod) say "I very much like ...." instead of I like .... very much.
Once, I had asked an american in a forum, if I said "I very much like cats" it would be right, he answered me, where the hell did you hear it? and he said if there was something like it, it must be brittish invention.



It is not a British "invention"!!!
It is correct grammar because the preposition (very much) relates to the verb (to like) and prepositions can only preceed the word(s) to which they relate.

In English a sentence cannot end with either a preposition or a conjunction. Here are a few examples of common, but wrongly formed English sentences:

A preposition is something that you must not end a sentence with.

I want to slowly walk to the shop.

I can't go out today because I am not allowed to.

Quoting deli:

fark etmez bod cok guzel turkce konusuyorsun



Farketmek Bod, çok güzel Türkçe konuşuyorun

"To make a difference Bod you must very much like to talk in Turkish"

Is that about right?
