| | Hi CursedZephyr, please leave a space after periods and commas, also:
What's happened
What happened |

| | 'What "has" happened?' Isn't it possible? :S |
| | 16 Tháng 2 2009 17:45 |
| | Yes, it's possible. Is it the case here? a present perfect tense? |
| | 16 Tháng 2 2009 17:47 |
| | Yes, it is. Actually, it was. |
| | 16 Tháng 2 2009 17:50 |
| | Kafetzou? Is that present perfect or simple past? CC: kafetzou |

| | Hi lilian,
this is not a word by word translation, so what happened is not in the Turkish text, it's more like
Ozan, what is this appearance |
| | 16 Tháng 2 2009 19:13 |
| | Yes, you're right turkishmiss. But we can't translate it like this. |
| | 17 Tháng 2 2009 04:42 |
| | I don't see any difference between simple past and present perfect here. |
| | 17 Tháng 2 2009 17:57 |
| | "The present one is way better"
Is this an idiom?
or is it "you are more better (good-looking) now" ? |
| | 17 Tháng 2 2009 18:08 |
| | 'The present appearance','The one you have now'. It's what the text says.. I don't know if it's better now or previously.. :-/ |
| | 17 Tháng 2 2009 18:10 |
| | By the way, "way better" = "much better". OK now? |
| | 17 Tháng 2 2009 18:57 |
| | I guess "your present appearence" or "actual appearance" would be better because in this case "halin" is not translated, it can only be understood "ÅŸimdiki daha iyi", but what about "halin"? Because the meaning is not that clear at this point, for my opinion. |

| | It's alright now. Thanks cheesecake! |

| | What's wrong with "way better"? This translation sounds way too formal. My suggestion:
Ozan, what's up with the look?
Why - didn't you like it?
No way - you look better now.
Ha ha - I got it. Thanks.
NOTE: I would not translate "cnm" (canım), because it could be misleading in English. We do not say "dear" or "my dear" between friends - only between (older) lovers or a married couple. I don't think there is a translation for "cnm" in this context. |
