My dear Professor Neslihan,
I feel very lucky to have met someone like you. There are moments sometimes when people cannot express themselves comfortably. I think this is one of those moments. I truly, really like you. Not only as a teacher, but also as a friend. Believe that when you are happy, I am happy. The only thing I fear is the time you get upset or the times I can't totally express myself. When I transfer to my own department, I will really miss the times I spent with you most of all.

About that 'title' you mention for a teacher...isn't there, in English, a title that matches the original? Also, what do you mean by "restricted"?

	aydin1 Number of messages: 33	Sorry about notes in the text. I have seen the Turkish word "Hoja" used in English before, but I guess one could say "Professor." "Restricted" is maybe "off limits" or "unavailable."

	lilian canale Number of messages: 14972	OK. I'll change it into "unavailable" and set a poll. Perhaps other users can help us. I really don't understand that line

	cheesecake Number of messages: 980	Hello. I think it should be "sinirli" instead of "sÄ±nÄ±rlÄ±" ( they have totally different meanings) in the original text because there are some other tiny errors in spelling in the text as well. In this case, the sentence will make more sense as "sinirli" means "angry". So the sentence should be changed as: "The only thing I fear is the time you are angry..." and the rest is fine I think.

	lilian canale Number of messages: 14972	I think you may be right cheese It makes a lot more sense. sinirli = nervous, irritable, upset, pissed off, mad, etc. sÄ±nÄ±rlÄ± = limited, restricted, scarce, etc. I guess we should edit the original before validating the translation

	cheesecake Number of messages: 980	Exactly So the text should be: Sevgili Neslihan hocam. Sizin gibi birini tanÄ±dÄ±ÄŸÄ±m iÃ§in kendimi Ã§ok ÅŸanslÄ± hissediyorum . . Ä°nsanlarÄ±n bazen kendilerini Ã§ok rahat ÅŸekilde ifade edemedikleri anlar olur. SanÄ±rÄ±m ÅŸu anda o anlardan biri. Sizi gerÃ§ekten Ã§ok seviyorum.

	lilian canale Number of messages: 14972	I've edited the original according to your suggestions, cheesecake. aydin1, Now, we've got to decide about the adjective we'll use. Which one do you think fits better?

	aydin1 Number of messages: 33	"Upset" sounds best to me.

	sencay Number of messages: 12	"Tek korktuÄŸum ÅŸey sinirli olduÄŸunuz zaman." should translate like "The only thing I fear is when you become irritated." instead of "unavailable"
