Kadere inanırmısın? Ben inanırım.Kader veya hayat, ne kadar ilginç, sürprizlerle dolu değil mi? Seni karşıma çıkardı; bu çok güzel.Ama acı olanı birbirimizden uzakta olmamız.

Gönderdiğin fotoğraflar ise; güzel bir akşam yemeğinin üzerine servis edilen tatlı gibi.


Honey kelimesinin Türkçe karşılığı bal demektir.
Sana, balım diye hitap etmek istedim. Çünkü, sen çok tatlısın.Tıpki bal gibi.
Ne kadar çok yersen, o kadar başın döner!
Sende benim balımsın.Çünkü başımı döndürdün.

honey
Translation
English

Translated by handyy
Target language: English

Do you believe in fate? I do! Fate, or life, is so interesting and full of suprises, isn't it? It allowed me to find you, and that is extremely good! But the upsetting thing is that we are far away from each other.

And the pictures you sent me are like a dessert which is served after a nice dinner.

The word 'honey' means 'bal' in Turkish.
I wanted to address you as 'My Honey!'. Because you are so sweet, just like honey!
The more you eat honey, the more you feel dizzy.
You are my honey as well. Because you made me feel dizzy.

filled with ----> full of

"It let me encounter with you, and that is pretty great"

That's not good. Let's find another way to say that. Perhaps:

"It made me meet you..." or " It allowed me to find you..." or even "It made possible for us to meet..."
Also "pretty great" does not combine since "great" means "excellent" "extremely good"
I think you should just use "great" alone.

"You are my honey as well. Because you made me feel dizzy."

"as well" means "too". I don't understand it there, for there is not a similar sentence before that one.
And I think "made" should be "make".

The rest is fine.

What do you think?

Thanks for the editings.

-- You are my honey as well.--> here the requester gives meaning "too" in his sentence.

-- "başımı döndürdün." = "you made me feel dizzy" : past tense is used in the source text.

hummm, perhaps she called him "honey" before (when sending the pictures). That would justify that "as well".
And the past tense in "made" may refer to the time when they were together.

OK, now it makes sense. To the poll!

not "she" but "he".
"honey" can be a girl and a boy can be "honey-bee".

Probably the sentence "The word 'honey' means 'bal' in Turkish" sounds good in turkish, but it should be reversed in english like that: The word 'bal' in Turkish means honey. Cause in this case a speaker "uses" english, not turkish. Otherwise it`s nonsense

It`s possible this way, too.
Actually, the russian translation also is not correct. "Honey" means honey in english, not in turkish, as that translation says.
