That sounds better.

What do you think Kafetzou?

It sounds better, but still awkward. What's wrong with my version?

They are what is making me cry already, those memories.

The subject is "beni aÄŸlatan (ÅŸey)", but according to your version the subject becomes "onlar".

OK, so let's set a poll and see if the other users have some ideas.

How about "What is making me cry is those memories"? I don't understand "onlar anılar" anyway - "o anılar" daha iyi olmaz mıydı?

i'd use "it will come" and
"it's them, that make me cry, the ..." or kafetzous suggestion except with 'are' ofcourse
i think a comma is missing between the onlar anılar

Kafetzou, if we say ""What is making me cry is those memories.", then, the meaning "already" is lacking there.

Kfeto, in the first sentence present simple is used, not future tense, so we can't say "It will come".

How about "What is already making me cry is those memories"?

And handyy, kfeto may be right. We often use future tense to describe something that is expected to happen, and is expressed with present tense in Turkish (and other languages). What we don't know for sure here is whether the writer is describing something that happens regularly (simple present tense) or something that is likely to happen (future tense).

So the whole thing would be as follows:

All of a sudden it'll come back to my mind in a flash at a completely unexpected moment.
The memories don't leave me. What is already making me cry is those memories.

Lilian, I hope you don't mind, but I'm taking over this one. I'll re-set the poll, although my feeling is that it's done.

shouldn't the last 'is' be 'are'? i'm not sure myself

No, because the subject is "what", and it was treated earlier in the sentence as singular. It could be "What are ... are ...," but I think that would sound a bit awkward.

Here we go to the beginning.

--At first you didn't accept "What is making me cry is already them, the memories" because of "the singular subject and the plural predicate". but now you do the same thing.

--First sentence is already happening. it is definetely not about future.

The speaker intentionally says "..onlar, (yani) anılar" so why do we omit one of them??

Hmm. Good point. I'm just trying to make it sound more English. "them, the memories" sounds downright weird in English, but I will change it back if you would prefer.

Kafetzou, now this translation is exactly correct. thank you so much for your efforts.

hmm kafetzou,
singular 'what' is the subject of the first verb that is 'is'= "What is making me cry"

the subject of the second 'is' is 'those memories' which is plural, so 'are' should be used
sentence is just inverted= those memories are /what is making me cry/

I agree kfeto "........are those memories "

Sorry, guys, but you're wrong about that. The subject is still "what".

(What I want to say) is this.
(What is bothering me) is the following.
(What is making me sneeze) is the flowers.

nope, i still think it's "are", but ok

You're welcome to think that.
