Whether or not you've heard of my name, who cares? My hearth is the most sincere writer I know.

The misperception of the personality I have and the one I seem to have makes me so sad

are u sure that the first sentence should be translated like this???))
Pay attention to the tense.
kisilikler-personalities
fark - difference, discrimination
oldugum-i had
göründügüm-i seem to have had

Hi Lilian,

the superlative form for the "sincere" is "sincerest", isn't it??

By the way, hi Enigma_r,

1)the tense in the first sentence is correct: it is about something that relates both to the past and to the present, that's why ı used present perfect there.

2)a personality is -always- CURRENT; habits can change but a personality doesn't change, so ı used present simple and said "I have" instead of "I had" for "olduğum".

3)it is written as "farklı algılamak" not just "fark", anyway, "misperceive" means "perceive incorrectly; misunderstand" so I used "misperception" which meets what is intended to say.

they may be wrong but all these are what ı understood

Hi handyy,

No, dear I'm afraid not.
We add "est" to an adjective to turn it into a superlative form if, and only if, the total of syllables formed is up to 2.
"sincerest" has 3. Therefore the correct form for the superlative is : "the most sincere" like "the most modern" "the most lethal" etc

well, actually I looked at some dictionaries which offer "sincerest", but you are the expert here, so you know the best

handyy, we find many words listed in dictionaries, but many of them, although grammatically correct are rarely used by native speakers.
Conventionally, what is followed is the "rule" I told you above, but if you want to keep the word, no problem, it will sound weird, but I can't say it's wrong.
