Vertaling - Turks-Engels - BU KAHROLASI HAYAT SENI BENDEN ALACAK KADAR...

the source language is Turkish

Can it be better like this?
"if this God damn life is so cruel that will take you away from me. What can I do?"

As comment to the Danish translation you find the following translation :"This damned life will take you away from me so cruelly. What can I do?" This text I find correct.

I think original text has been changed or I made a mistake so I have changed my translation.

Same reason as Minny told.

Danish translatin should have a problem then because original text is in Turkish...

:"This damned life will take you away from me so cruelly. What can I do?"
this can be translated into Turkish as below:

Bu kahrolası hayat seni benden böyle acımasızca alacak. Ne yapabilirim?

Original sentence is an IF sentence without a doubt. so must be the Danish translation...

Serba you are right about "if" But alacak is future tense.
I agree with Merdogan's version

Ok guys, it seems to be clear that we have an "if" clause here, but the tenses to be combined are: "What can I do if (...) life is so cruel..." the rest has nothing to do with the choice of tense for the conditional.

The only part which could be in future (because of the "if" ) is that "What can I do". In that case it could be: "What will I do", however, I don't think it's necessary, since "What can I do" is an expression meaning "I can do nothing". See what I mean?

For a "meaning only" translation, to me, Serba's line sounds correct. If the meaning is the same as in the original, I don't think we should change the verb tenses at all.

turkishmiss bu cümle future tense filan değil
cümlenin yüklemi o değil

Esas cümle bu:
Hayat acımasızsa ben ne yapabilirim? bu cümlede iki tane yargı var birincisi "hayat acımasız"
ikinci yargı "ben ne yapabilirim"
