Translated by handyy
Target language: English

NOBODY IN THE WORLD IS WORTH CRYING FOR. ACTUALLY, THE ONE WHO IS WORTHY OF YOUR TEARS DOESN'T MAKE YOU CRY. HOWEVER, IF YOU STILL WANT TO CRY, HOLD YOUR HEAD HIGH AND THEN MAKE YOUR TEARS FALL.
Remarks about the translation
--"GOZYASLARIN AGLAT" -->makes no sense, I tried to translate it as far as I could understand.

--"DEGEN INSAN" --> I intentionally added "(worthy of) your tears".

This one is a hard one, handyy, but I think you missed the subject of it: HAYAT.

Kafetzou, this text has some indefinite parts, and this is the same for the first sentence. It says "HAYAT HICBIR INSAN ICIN AGLAMAYA DEGMEZ", here it is not clear whether "life" or "nobody" is unworthy, so I guess the requester tried to say "hayatta hiç bir insan..". that is why I translated it like that.

Isn't it, "Life isn't worth anybody crying for"?

handyy, could you please write to the requester and tell him we cannot be sure that our translation is correct because his original is unclear, and ask him to rewrite it in clear Turkish? He's a Turkish native speaker.

Other administrators: I put an administrator check request on this because I don't know how to put it in standby, and it's untranslatable as is.

Kafetzou,

Once the translation was made, it can't be set in standby anymore. That tool works only while the request is still available for translation.

Ah - I see. I'm not sure what to do here. This is where I really need a "hands off" button!

Yes, that's a good example to prove that the device we asked for is really useful!

I already posted a message to Gs-osman, but he hasn't replied me yet.

I really can't understand! I posted two messages to Gs-osman, and though he visited the site, he insisted on not replying me! It seems that we will wait a long time..

Well, the other solution is to reject your translation (with a high rating), and to delete his translation request. Let me know what you'd like me to do.

OK, Kafetzou, you can reject my translation but please explain my mistakes (so that I wouldn't make them again), and for the rating, I would be glad if it could be low -or even without no rating
