Kfeto, this sentence is weird.

"If I loved you, it would rain in this city" would make more sense.

yes but that not what it says.
it not in the present and it's not conditional.

I don't know which of the French or English trannslation is the right one, but one of them is wrong : The French translation gives this: "When I have loved you in this town, it was raining". So one of them is wrong; At least it's my opinion
even if it seems that I"m the only one, who think that way.

Why "city" and not "town". I know ,crazy question,
byt the word "town" is used quite often. If you use "city" it means that it's a big, big town. Up to you, I don't understand turkish.
GOOD EVENING.

no that's a reasonable question
because the turkish says sehir which is a city

is this the reason why you voted against?

I wouldn't use : It would rain, but -> "It rained" since it's written in past tense

The tense is incorrect. It should be "when I loved you in this city, it was raining." This is according to the Russian translation...

I voted wrong for this one, but I voted according to the French version. About the Turkish one I coul'nt say, as I don't know Turkish.

But from the French text, the English version would read : "When I loved you in this city, it was raining" (thus a different meaning here with the english)

Please also note : "quand je t'ai aimé" could also describe the act of making love to someone, and so it would be translated by "when I was making love to you..."

I know the tense is not the same as in french but i translated according to the original turkish.

which is in not the simple past, but the AORIST(timeless) past.
and it doesn't say when (-ken) but says( -im zaman)so it's closer to "the time(s) that/whenever"
