I´d like to find something to impress my new Turkish man... so if you could pick ONE thing to cook what would it be? Never have made Turkish food..but in all everyone has always said I was a good cook.. so

parfüm = perfume

Yakýþýklý ama fakir. O yüzden, bir gün o macera aramak baþlamýþ.

Handsome but poor. That´s why one day he went to look for an adventure.

Kalbým çok aðýr olduðu için sana bu mesaji gönderiyorum, ileri gidebilmem için seni duygularýmý anlatmam gerekiyor. Seninle þimdiden sonra temas etmeyeceðim, o sana baðlý, nerede olduðumu biliyorsun.

Please wait for corrections, I´m not 100% sure about this one. 

I am sending you this message because my heart is very heavy

Sana bu mesajý gönderiyorum. Çünkü, duygularým çok yoðun.

Bütün düzeltme bu kadarcýk mý ?

I am told that the end (ACTION)mayalým ýs not a correct conjugation, others ýn class have translated it
as a negatýve subjuntive,  "we must not (action).  Below is the song DEÐMEZ from the Özem Tekin website.

I am told these words mean

alýnmayalým  we must not be offended
abartmayalým  we must not exaggerate
saklanmayalým we must not hidden
sarýlmayalým  we must not be embraced
ayrýlmayalým  we must not be separated

interspersed are statements that

The face of loves is not seen and never ýs
You are for me someone not loved and never loved.

I think last line ýs.

we must not love not curse and not break up.  It is not Valentines day anymore, should have gotten
this out sooner... haha

Any comments?  lyrics and videolink below. Maybe it explains everything.

DEÐMEZ

Bugün doganýn dengesi yok
Öyle herseyden alýnmayalým
Aglasam kýzsam hiç yeri yok
Baþladýk yarým býrakmayalým
Daha seninle iþim bitmedi bitmez
Aþk gün yüzü görmedi görmez
Sana söylemeye degmedi degmez
Seni benim kadar kimse sevmedi sevmez
Yalnýz kalmanýn alemi yok
Ýçip içip abartmayalým
Aþkta sükutun kýymeti yok
Kaçýp gidip saklanmayalým
Aþksýz hayatýn hiç tadý yok
Fani dünyaya sarýlmayalým
Darlanmanýn manasý yok
Sevip sövüp ayrýlmayalým

Kalbým çok aðýr olduðu için sana bu mesaji gönderiyorum, ileri gidebilmem için sana duygularýmý anlatmam gerekiyor. Seninle þimdiden sonra temas etmeyeceðim, o sana baðlý, nerede olduðumu biliyorsun.

It´s another great posts of yours I´ll need to print out and study. Thank you so much.

I have one follow up questions. A very easy/basic one, but it´s just something I´ve been wondering about. It´s regarding the sentence Þu anda evdeyim.

I´m wondering why it´s "þu" and not "bu" - I have used "bu anda ..." in one of my translation attempts, and it was corrected to "þu anda" but to me "þu" indicates certain remoteness in place/time so I´d translate it as "that moment" and "bu anda" would make more sense to me for "this moment".

So, I guess my question is: Is "þu anda" a set expression? Is "bu anda" ever correct to use? How would you differentiate between the different meaning in 2 sentences:

- I´m not home at this moment (like right now).

- I wasn´t home at that moment (let´s say it´s more remote in time).

I hope you enjoy making those posts Cynic (and everyone else who is so kind to explain things), I´ll keep you all busy for sure
