Quoting passer-by

 

 

 

I tried to mean "dont make me nervous"  

 

Thanks-that makes more sense-we wouldn´t use ´chafe´ in that context.

and also from ´turkishlanguage.co.uk´

-(y)ip/-(y)ıp/-(y)up/-(y)üp - and, also

Used when there are two verbs with identical suffixes joined by and/also to simplify the first one.
Kalkıp gittik. [not - kalktık gittik.] - We got up and we left
Oturup konuşuyorlar. ( not oturuyorlar konuşuyorlar.) - They are sitting and talking. Gidip bakmalıyız - We must go and see.

Quoting Sooree

Sırların gönülde kalırsa, muradın çabuk gerçekleşir. Tohum toprağa gizlenirse yeşerir.

 

 

If your secrets remain in the heart,your wish soon comes true. If a seed is hidden in the ground it emerges.

 

My try

Quoting Sooree

Bir ilişkide güvensizlik varsa orda sevgi yoktur . Ve Unutmaki güvenilmek, sevilmekten daha büyük bir iltifattır.

 

 

 

In a relationship if there is no trust there is no love. And remember (don´t forget) that it is a bigger compliment to be trusted than to be loved.

Quoting emw

I just start learning Turkish...  I may ask really simple questions, but my text book does not explain the following sentence really well.  Please help me to understand this.

Ben komedi filmlerini seviyorum.

Can you explain to me what does mean by "ni" after "filmleri"?  I understand "filmleri" as a plural of film, but I do not understand this ni...

 

Thank you,

 

The plural of film is just filmler but because it is described as ´komedi´ it becomes a compound noun which takes the possessed suffix ´i´ ´komedi filmleri´.

The object of the verb ´sevmek´ also takes the suffix ´i´ (eg seni seviyorum )so to prevent two ´i´s from coming together the buffer consonant ´n´ is used.

so .....komedi filmlerini seviyorum.
