| | Hi Tzicu,
This text seems to be quite poorly written.
It sounds awful in English too. I think we could improve it a bit in order to sound better.
My suggestion:
Erzurum is a very popular city during winter season. The weather is very cold. There is a ski centre in Palandöken which is visited by many tourists. They ski and have a good time there. People in Erzurum are very nice and tourists like spending time with them. Tourists ski in Palandöken. People are very helpful and hospitable. They are also very happy for meeting new tourists all the time.
What do you think? Does it convey the original meaning in the source text? |

| | Hi Tzicu
Can you speak Turkish?
I suppose you used for translation Turkish text.
and I think it will be better as follow;
"Erzurum is a very popular big city for winter tourism. The weather is normally very cold. There is a ski centre in Erzurum. Its name is Palandöken, which is visited by many tourists. The people ski and have a good time there. People of Erzurum are very good like winter tourism and tourists like spending time with them. The people are very helpful and very hospitable. They are very pleased with presentation to the tourists the place where they are living and to guide them."

| | Hi,
I do not speak Turkish, but I do understand it. Not perfectly though - there the source of some mistakes in my translation of the text.
How should I proceed now?
Thank you,

| | Hi Tzicu
My job is making the English version sound natural
The poll is set to check whether the meaning is correct (that's why we ask for the help of those who master both languages) or we have to make any adjustments.
Some of the suggestions given may be used, others perhaps not. We discuss the translation in order to get the most accurate version. However you'd better wait to make any new edit until the expert in charge agrees, OK?
Don't worry, sometimes I, myself edit the text according to the messages.

| | bu çeviri yanlızca anlamla alakalı değilmiş yani türkçeden ingilizceye aynen yazılmamış örneğin orjinalde ...kadar iyi diyor ama ben ingilizcesinde as görmedim |
