Merhaba serba

I won't do a poll, as I am sure of your understanding of the Turkish

Maybe just one little edit, to put the word "turned" instead of "made"?

What do you think?

This is neither bad enough to reject nor good enough to put to a vote until you take a close look at the English and make some corrections.

For instance, you left and turned my world upside down would probably be better.

Hi Lilly, Merhaba Serba, Hi Dramati

Thanks for your suggestion Lilly, I also think that "left" would be better than "went".

David, I don't need to poll here, as Serba is an Expert for Turkish

I don't contest the Turkish, but don't you think that in English topsy-turvy would be better than what was written?

Hi Kafetzou

I'm awfully sorry, my computer went blank whilst I was editing and I didn't realise that you had already accepted the translation.

Do you want me to put it back as it was when you validated? Or is it ok like this?

David,

"Topsy-turvy" seems a rather frivolous term for the context. Someone has been jilted, there has been rupture, they are sad. A sober term seems to me to be much more appropriate.
