I think it should be "home", not "house". I would change it and validate this, but I don't know how many other changes have been made. Tantine, could you please make this edit and validate the translation?

I couldn't get on well with my family so I've lived alone. Because I hadn't got a home.

Hi Tantine, Smy and Handyy!
Sorry I haven't written for so long but I couldn't.
This text is not my so I can't explain that.
We can ask Stijn or Gian (one of them translated it in Dutch) I'm learning Turkish so I was wondered what does it mean in English.
regards! :-)

Hi all,

there is no specific information about the text. it's not clear that her not having a house(or a home) is a result or a reason: the house mentioned in the text is not known whether it is the one at which she lived with her family once upon a time or the one at which she is living now! but there is a truth that in turkish 'için' means 'as',that's why ı chose using 'as' inspite of 'so', when translating it.

regards!!byee..

"için" in this text means "because".

Hi Kafetzou,

then why did you change 'as' to 'so'?

Bye...

Kafetzou, biz genellikle "çünkü" kelimesini "because" olarak çeviriyoruz,
burada "-diği için" kullanılıyor ve "so" koyduğun için ikinci cümlenin anlamı bozuluyor, "bu yüzden evim yoktu" anlamına geliyor.

Handyy, kelimelerin yerini değiştirmeyi denesen, şöyle: as I couldn't get along with my family, I lived alone. ikinci cümle için de "because" ve "home" kullanmak bence anlama zarar vermez, nasıl olsa bunu diyenin neyi kasttetiğini asla anlayamayacağız
Selamlar!

handyy, I didn't change anything here.

smy, "için" is often translated as "because".

"So" is definitely incorrect here. I think the translation should be as follows:

I lived alone because I couldn't get along with my family.
Because I didn't have a home.


In Turkish, the second sentence is a sentence fragment, so it should be one in English as well.

so böyle bi yerde için anlamına gelmez. ...sonucunda evim yok evim olmadığı için değil. doğrusu bu yüzden evim yok olmalı.

nisa, it is the English translation that we are working on here, not the Turkish original.

Hi kafetzou,

at first my translation was like that: I lived alone as I couldn't get along with my family. As I didn't have a house. ı guess ı was confused because you said Tantine to change the translation and Tantine changed it as 'I lived alone as I couldn't get along with my family.
So I didn't have a home.' so ı said you then why you changed it! sorry for my misunderstanding! (smy you understood like me, didn't you?)from the beginning of the poll ı tried to explain that we couldn't use 'so' here! of course ı still don't know what the real meaning of the text is -as smy said we'll never learn it- but according to the meaning ON THE SURFACE we can transalate this text like the first one ı did before it is validated, ı mean with DOUBLE 'as'('as'-or because- in each sentence)

thank you all! HAPPY FEST

De vertaling in het NL is: Ik leefde alleen omdat ik het niet goed kon vinden met mijn familie. Dus ik had geen huis (woning).

I only asked Tantine to change "house" to "home". You can still read my message above.

Hi Kafetzou (and everyone else too)

Sorry about the mistake I made in editing the text. I hope I have got it right this time.

I had too much on my mind the last two or three weeks, so I've not been at my best.

I hope things will now run smoother.

Hi Tantine,

ı guess the translation is correct now (still, ı explained my thoughts about 'house or home', but if the majority think it should be 'home', then no objection)

good day!!
