Hi merdogan,

a few corrections:
momentary ----> momentarily
memoirs ---- memories

"if I even run away" should read "Even if I run away".

If you agree we can set a poll.

"Momentarily" sadece bir an için, geçici olarak, ya da hemen gibi anlamına gelmez mi? Onun yerine "in an instant", "instantly" daha uygun olduğunu düşünüyorum.

Hi guys, what we have to get is an accurate translation, sometimes a single word may make a difference in meaning, that's why I ask you to write your comments in English, so that I can see if the correction conveys the meaning in the original.
There is a difference in meaning between "momentarily" and "instantly", so what I'd like to know is which one is more accurate.
I corrected the spelling of the word, the voters are called to correct the meaning of it. If I knew Turkish I wouldn't need to set a poll.

See what I mean? It has nothing to do with expertise.

Hi Lilian,
She says "Momentarily" is not the correct word here because Momentarily means for an instant and "bir anda" is more like "instantly".
For me "Bir anda" in French "d'un seul coup" in English may be "in a flash" but as you know both French and English, I'm sure you'll know what to do.

Thanks turkishmiss, I think I got it now.
What you mean is something like:

straightaway, at once, forthwith, instantaneously.

Who will pick one?

merdogan
"momentarily" means "briefly" "during a short time"
different from "instantly" which means "at once"
