Quoting tunci

 

 

Remember his famous slips of tounge which always put a smile on our face.

 

Some of them were,

 

one day while presenting a news , he said ; 

 

"madrid´in midyat ilçesinde bir süryani papaz..."

 

and another day , he said  " İsmail Komandaları´  instead of  " İsrail Komandoları

 

another one was ;

yayınımızda bugün "deniz zeki´yi" ağırlıyoruz. 

 

There were so many of them. But his slips of tounge were always found sympathetic by people. Mekanı cennet olsun.

 

 

Bazı siyasi görüşlerine katılmasam da sevimli bir adamdı. Dil sürçmeleri gerçekten ona daha bir sempatiklik katıyordu. Ayrıca iyi bir Galatasaraylı´ydı. Böyle hayat dolu bir insanın birdenbire yitip gitmesi insanı gerçekten sarsıyor.

Quoting Abla

 

 

Well it has some fifty negative meanings as an independent word, from none to never.

 

hiç can be used with positive predicates  -  in questions:

 

                                Hiç parasütle atladın mı?

 

I have thought of hiç as an emphasizing word which strongly gravitates to negative environments. So strongly that it hardly has any use in affirmative sentences. (The pronoun kimse also likes to go where the light is red.)

 

In the sentence above I think hiç is there to make the sentence more polite: it gives the listener a chance to answer no without losing his face. But this is just a guess and Turks know better.

 

Then let me improve my theory: It has a positive meaning when it is an adverb. Objections?

I have a DVD of his documentary of Galatasaray´s Unforgettable Matches. It is really great. I really appreciated his enthuism of doing so many documentaries about many different issues.

Quoting nessah

 

 

Bir ömür boyu seninleyim desen de istemem artık. Çünkü sen rüzgarın çosturdugu bir toz bulutusun, bugün bana esersin ...yarın başka ellere.

 

AŞKIN İLK SOLUĞU MANTIĞIN SON SOLUĞUDUR

 

 

Even if you say "I will be always with you " I don´t want anymore. Because you are a cloud of dust which wind carries away, today you blow towards me, tomorrow towards others.

First breath of love is the last breath of logic.

Quoting Henry

 

 

Unfortunately my ´English trained´ brain also has problems with double negation. I would never not do that = I would always do that {#emotions_dlg.sad}

 

I have a theory. I think "hiç" is not negative. It is positive. And it means "ever" Because:

1)It doesn´t make the sentence negative alone.

2)And it doesn´t make sense when you use it with a positive predicate.

 

I wait for the objections

From my side - Benim tarafımdan          From our side - Bizim tarafımızdan

From your side - Senin tarafından        From your side - Sizin tarafınızdan

From his/her side -Onun tarafından     From their side -Onların tarafından

Correct me. I did

When I use if there is always a condition. But when this condition hasn´t happened,  an unreal situation occurs. But if someone thinks the condition has happened than a real situation occurs. 

 

etseydi - unreal situation

etdiyse - real situation
