My attempt at a slightly longer sentence...

Araştırma sonucunda imiş ´in cümledeki yerinin değişkenliği , yani sadece yüklemden sonra değil, cümlenin başka unsurlarından sonra da gelebildiği ve bunun cümledeki önemli veya yeni bilgiyi vurgulamak için yapıldığı örneklerle gösterilmiştir.

2)imiş ´in cümledeki yerinin değişkenliği=the irregularity of imis´s place within a sentence

4) that it come come after other elements of a sentence

and in order to emphasize an important or new point in this sentence

Hi guys, can any of you help me with this lutfen.

It would be a great help!!

It is still early days but if it is meant to be it will be. We may not feel ready for this right now but everything will soon fall into place.

Daha erken sayılır ama olacaksa olacaktır. Bunun için şimdi hazır hissetmiyor olabiliriz ama herşey yakında yerli yerine oturacak.

I have been so confused and scared this past few days. But I feel that with you I can do anything. I know it is not ideal but we will do what we have to.

Şu son günlerde kafam çok karışıktı ve korkuyordum. Ama seninle herşeyin üstesinden gelebileceğimi hissediyorum. Çok ideal olmadığını biliyorum ama yapmamız gereken neyse yapacağız.

We cannot worry about our families. It will be a shock for them too, but in time they will come to terms with it and support us.

Ailelerimiz hakkında endişelenemeyiz. Onlar için de bu bir şok olacak ama zamanla toparlanacaklar ve bizi destekleyecekler.

Please don´t worry anymore and don´t be angry. Trust me, I understand how you are feeling. Now I am just asking you to be there for me and support me. You are the only person I could imagine doing this with. You´re my everything.

Lütfen artık üzülme ve sinirlenme. Bana güven; nasıl hissettiğini biliyorum. Şimdi senden yanımda olmanı ve beni desteklemeni istiyorum. Bunu birlikte yapabileceğimizi hayal edebileceğim tek insan sensin. Sen benim herşeyimsin.

Dear all,

I am currently trying to translate an article on the Turkish Cypriot dialect from Turkish to English and by doing so have accumulated a number of questions. i am currently trying to tranlsate the following sentence and was wondering if anybody could offer any help/advice/tips etc..

Bu araştırmada imek fiilinin -miş eki almış varyantı olan imiş ´in Kıbrıs ağızlarındaki kullanılışı üzerinde durulmuştur.

My attempt:

When translating I have been taught to work backwards. so..

1) durulmuştur=focus

2)üzerinde= on/about

3) kullanılış=this belongs with  imiş ´in. So.. the usage of imiş

4) Kıbrıs ağızlarındaki=in the Cypriot dialect.

5) olan= subject participle=which

6) varyant-ı= this possessive belongs to imek fiilinin..So.. a variant/variation of the imek verb´s

7) -miş eki almış =replacement of the -miş suffix.

8) In this research

So we have...

In this research, the focus is on the usage of the imiş in the Cypriot dialect which is a variation of the imek verb which has taken the -miş suffix

Any good??

so which is it?  streams eat fleas or fleas eat streams?  first one makes more sense (if you can call it sense!)

Can someone please tell me what this means? I dont have a clue! Thanks in advance!

Maybe a true native Turkish speaker would have known about hidden suffixes all his/her life But someone who is still learning? At some point I should really try and find a way to attend classes for Turkish. Maybe I would start to learn about things like this and remember them

Thank you Gokuyum.The lesson sentence appears to be slightly wrong then? I would not have known to apply -dır after insan. The exercise should have had that already there. Also I had only known nasıl as meaning "how". and didn´t know that it could be used to say "what kind". There still seems to be so many little things about Turkish I am missing out on.

so if i want to say that for example as a hobby i read the newspaper is it better to use gazeteyi okurum or gazeteyi okuyorum?
