	handyy Number of messages: 2118	@Zimzik, Oceans and Zakho Thanks for your comments but you SHOULD HAVE KNOWN that you can not translate any idiom or proverb word by word. "Ne yardan geÃ§mek ne de serden" means "Ã§ok istenilen iki ÅŸey arasÄ±nda ikilemde kalmak/ ikisinden de vazgeÃ§mek istememek". And this idiom in English [have one's cake and eat it, too.] meets this meaning! All the best.. CC: TheZimzik Oceans Zakho
