	minuet Number of messages: 298	In my opinion, there are better english meanings for "gÃ¶zÃ¼ne girmek" like "to win somebody's favour", "to get on someone's good side" or "to keep in good with someone". Does "to give someone a good look" give the same meaning?

	Lein Number of messages: 3389	Not really, I wasn't sure what was meant here. It made me think of 'to take a good look at someone' but that is obviously not what was meant. Maybe 'she will never get on with them'?

	merdogan Number of messages: 3769	It is for me; (according to Turkish text) "No matter what the person she dislikes does, he (they) can't win her love or her interest." Because his mother is not subject in last sentence, Subject has to be a male (he/them).
