uyuyamam - Can't sleep, right? It gives a moral touch to the sentence

can't sleep - meaning that circumstances do not allow me to go to sleep.....not that I am trying to sleep but that I just can't!

Yes, exactly

"moral touch" anladım.....

I think, uyuyamam means "I can never sleep" << aorist tense refers on "always" (negative: "never")

Quoting caliptrix:

Let's complete it:
(Ben) yÃ¼zmeye gitmek istiyorum

I am alittle tired, let me have a break lol

Have you woken up yet Caliptrix ??? lol

Am I right in thinking that istemek is a special case because it takes the full infinitive? If it were any other verb then it would take a short infinitive instead.....

For example:
yÃ¼zmeye gitmek istiyorum
yÃ¼zmeye gitme hoşlanıyorum

Yes, I am awake!

istemek has full infinitive for only the same subject.
Subject: "Ben"
Activity doer: "Ben" (same person)
so: Gitmek istiyorum
But if the activity is done by another one, for example: "Sen"
everything will change :o
Senin gitmeni istiyorum
It can be also for the same person:
Benim gitmemi istiyorum
But this is very weird.
(This topic has been already told by me many times. I remember! So, try to search)

On the other hand, hoşlanmak goes with "-dan".
YÃ¼zmeye gitmekten hoşlanıyorum
But it is also weird because: do you like the "going" part? I think it must be:
YÃ¼zmekten hoşlanıyorum

Quoting natiypuspi:

I like sleeping = Uyumayı beğeniyorum

I think beğenmek is not suitable for here. It must be "Uyumayı seviyorum".

Thanks Caliptrix for the correction.

So when can I use beğenmek and when sevmek?

Unfortunately, I don't have an idea exactly.

if you say [noun] + seviyorum (present continuous), it means generally the special love: I love:
Ahmet'i seviyorum: I love Ahmet
Seni seviyorum: I love you
as an exception: if the nouns is plural or a member of a family, it doesnt mean special person:
Sizi seviyorum: I love you(you all)
Kardeşimi seviyorum: I love my brother/sister

if you say [noun]+ severim: it is the person you love generally.
Ahmet'i severim: I like Ahmet
Kardeşimi severim: I love my brother/sister

if you say [activity] + seviyorum/severim, it means like a hoby love:
yemek yapmayı severim: I like cooking
uyumayı severim: I like sleeping
yağmuru izlemeyi severim: I like watching the rain
televizyon izlemeyi seviyorum: I like watching TV

beğenmek is for something about another person:
Ahmet'i beğeniyorum << a bit weird usage of I like Ahmet as special person
but if there is an activity:
Ahmet'in bu davranışını beğeniyorum << it is the behaviour of Ahmet.
or it can be a meal you like:
bu yemeği beğeniyorum << But a bit weird again.

hoşlanmak is also used for a special person:
Ayşe'den hoşlanıyorum

or an activity you like:
kitap okumaktan hoşlanıyorum (can be interchangible to "-i seviyorum")

Sorry I cannot explain well. I hope there is someone who can write exactly.

Ok Sago thanks. I guess I'll take your word, since your the real deal

, I just had to be sure so I didn't sound like a babbling idiot.

And really, how many Turkish people celebrate birthdays?
Almost non of my close friends care about birthdays. So that is not a common "song"

PM: private message: Ã¶zel mesaj
if you were talking about the messaje you wrote here, it is not "PM", it is a "post". It can be called "yazı" or "mesaj" in turkish for here.

Kolay gelsin.

Thank you for your correction caliptrix,
İ thought we shouldn't translat 'PM ' as we don't translate some common words like 'email'

In fact, I don't prefer to use "email" in Turkish. It shpould be at least "e-posta" or something like that.
