Source language: Turkish

Evlilik sonrası, nerede yaşayacağız, nerede kalacağız? Sana istediğin hayatı verip veremeyeceğimi bilmediğimi hep söyledim. Eşimden boşandıktan sonra maaşımın yarısını eşime ödemek zorundayım, bunların hepsini karşılayacak ekonomik güce sahip değilim.

Title
After marriage
Translation
English

Translated by merdogan
Target language: English

After marriage, where will we live, and stay ? I always told you I didn’t know whether or not I will be able to give you the life you want. After my divorce from my wife I have to pay her half of my salary, I don’t have enough money to afford all that.

Actually, it's not clear. We can't be sure 100% if he divorced or not. I think he most probably divorced from her wife ('maaşımın yarısını eşime ödemek zorundayım' was used in the present tense)

I think he didn't yet because he says " ...sonra = after ".
He could say " I am paying her half of my salary".
At least he dosen't want to divorce and he plays with another woman.

Still, we can't know it. To clarify, "Şu anda maddi durumum iyi değil. Biliyorsun eşimden boşandıktan sonra ona her ay düzenli olarak para yollamak zorundayım."

Dear rollingmaster,
In original text there is nothing like this.

Actually, I agree with merdogan. I understand that he haven't divorced yet, because if it was the case, then he would say: "Karımdan boşandığım için..." But here he is talking about the future plans. He is still maried with a women and he wants to leave her to marry with his lover. But he can't be sure because he knows that if he divorces from his actual wife, he will have to pay her some money. I am pretty sure that the case is like that.

I agree, I just gave an example of the fact that they might have divorced from each other because I’m not sure. The text might be telling us something like in my example. The man wants to marry but he has difficulty with his financial situation. Why? Because he divorced from his wife and the court order specified that he must pay his wife half of his salary. Most probably this is the case but I’m not pretty sure. Maybe he's married and cheating on his wife. If he divorce from his wife, he’ll have to pay her some money and he doesn’t want to marry with lover. However, if the case were like that, the following sentence would be “I will not be able to have the economic power to meet all of them”

In brief, "Eşimden boşandıktan sonra maaşımın yarısını eşime ödemek zorundayım" means 'they divorced from each other' (as in my example) as well as 'they are still married' (like you said).

Wouldn't it be easier to ask paradox1 what his real situation is (about to divorce - already divorced - just thinking about divorcing) so that we can present an accurate translation?

Bilge, could you do that, please?

Haha OK Lilian

Merhaba paradox1,

Metnin hakkında gördüğün üzere epeyce tartıştık En doğru çeviriyi bulmaya çalışıyoruz ve bu yüzden yardıma ihtiyacımız var. Metinde geçen adamın karısından halihazırda boşanıp boşanmadığını söyleyebilir misin bize? Çeviriyi ona göre yapılandıracağız. Teşekkürler

According to the French version, I'd change to "give you the life you _dream_" instead. And maybe change "enough money" to "enough savings" too.

I have always told you that I didnt know if I could give you the life you are dreaming about.

I have no economies for all that.

If it is "dreaming", Turkish version isn't right.

My dear friends,
Isn't it enough to work on this text?

merdogan is right!

Moreover the requester asked for an admin to check the page.

Would "I don't have enough money to afford all of that." be correct? If it is, I suggest that we edit and validate the translation.


Thank you for your help,-in order of appearance, Lilian, Bilge, Mesud, Jens, artemisisis, RedShadow, Lene, and thanks for the translation, merdogan!

Lein wasn't connected yesterday, but as she's in charge with the evaluation, I'll leave her edit and validate the translation.

Thanks all!
The requester has not replied so we don't know whether the divorce has taken place yet, but I think the translation as it is sounds logical. I have edited to 'afford all that' and validated because you are right merdogan, this is a very long discussion on minor points
Thanks again
