Title	Onerim,c. tesi burdan ayrilip bir gunluk ankaraya...
Text Submitted by imelrur82	Source language: Turkish Onerim,c.tesi burdan ayrilip bir gunluk ankaraya ugramayi dusunuorm! Acil gelmemi gerektiren bi durum varmi? Yani huzursuz oluyorum burda. Ali abiye slm soyle

Title	My proposal is to leave
Translation English Translated by ToprakA	Target language: English 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. Ahmet Toprak
