Quoting miona:

Today I celebrated my birthday alone like always. I wished so much you were by my side. I miss everything about you very much. In this way it makes me sad. I know you are crazy but I love you this way.


My attempt



Good, Lady

Quoting ivy306:

Is there any Turkish say...that means..."You catch more flies (bugs) with honey, than with vinegar?"..or something close to this saying with the same meanings?



I don´t know exactly but there is a similar saying about about vinegar. this is a verb: yüzü sirke satmak
It means literally; someone´s face sells vinegar

It means indeed; if one is not smiling, is always glum, then we say "yüzü sirke satıyor"="his face sells vinegar"

If there is another expression, I hope someone say it.



Thread: english to turkish, please. Thank you very much.

Quoting yilgun-7:

my try=

1- I hate asking = Bunu sana söylemeyi sevmiyorum

2- but you must make an effort = fakat bir çaba sarfetmelisin..



to ask= sormak or istemek
in this case istemek, as a wish; like "I want"="I ask"

"Hey gidi"
This is an expression that means you are remembering the past days, like nostalgia. Probably with longing.

"evlat acısı"
The pain of missing, generally when you lost your son, maybe he died, so you miss him. So you call this pain "evlat acısı"

"evlat acısı gibiydi"
it was(or "has been") like the pain of (missing) son
(or daughter)

"seni de biricik aşkını da öpüyorum"
I kiss you, and your unique love (both)

I read that it is something from England. I have never heard and tried either.

If you want, here is a video about it:

Quoting CANLI:

İ thought the rule is

.....Mek İstemek.



wisher and doer are different people, so you can´t use it.

Look:
I want to go to İstanbul
İstanbul´a gitmek istiyorum

But look:
I want YOU TO GO to İstanbul
(I wish, but you will go.)

so;
Senin İstanbul´a gitmeni istiyorum

Let´s see the same wish for the third person;
I want AHMET TO GO to İstanbul
(I wish, but Ahmet will go.)

That is;
Ahmet´in İstanbul´a gitmesini istiyorum

wish is: Ahmet´in İstanbul´a gitmesi
Remember that literally;
I want the "going to İstanbul" action of Ahmet
this is actually we say in Turkish.

For that reason, you can´t use -mek istemek if the person who will do that is not the same person who want it.

Quoting sonunda:

Quoting caliptrix:

Quoting insallah:

Quoting ccrook:

what does this mean

suanda hissettiyim duygulari seninle paylasmak isterdim
at the minute i am feeling sensations which i was wanting to share with you .


kebap in oraya gel simdi konusalim ok


come to your kebap now , lets speak ok ?

by the way i am not certain on this last one



first one is;
I would want to share my feelings (which I feel) now (if it could be possible)

in last onei "kebap" should be an abbreviation for a restaurant which cooks kebap, so "come to the kebap (shop/restaurant)"



How did you get the ´would´ part of speech from this?



he says isterdim: istemek > isterim = I want
isterdim= if I could do, I would want to do
