My proposal is to leave here on Saturday and stop over in Ankara for a day. Is there anything that requires me to come over urgently? I feel on edge here. Please say hello to brother Ali.
| Remarks about the translation | - I could not think of a good way of expressing "yani" in "Yani huzursuz oluyorum burada". "It literally means "that is" but it does not sound right in this colloquial speech setting.
- Ali is addressed as "abi", that is "elder brother". There is not equivalent way of expressing deference yet closeness here in the US.
