With all due respect srs and bros, the non-turks here would love to learn your language and culture. We would apprec if you could translate it into english at the same time so that we could all benefit fm it. Its beyond islamic adaab to talk to each other while the other one just watchingimsad which happens to me all the time here and they think its cool.imsad

anlardim me: do u understand?

towbah towbah - repent repent

cok aib - how embarassing

ramadan mubarak olsun - May you have a blessed ramadan

no probs...

ur spelling is quite off sis...

anladin mi...
tovbe tovbe
cok ayip
ramazan mubarek olsun...

i obviously dnt have the turkish letters on my keyboard...but you are close enough...

peace.

thanks for letting me know: bildirdigin icin saol
thanks for helping me: yardimin icin tesekkur ederim

Selam aleykum,

MashaAllah nice thread. Ben seveyim bu threada. Haha. My Turkish has gone down the hill. :-\

Well I remember a song or lullaby whatever it's called, my father singed one to me when i was still a child... He took my right hand and began gently making a circle on my palm with his index finger and he sang:

çevrin çevrin, çevrengjik, (he made a circle)
Ortasinda bunargjik (here he stopped the circle)
Bu tutmish (touched my little finger), bu çesmish (the next finger),
Bu pishermish (next finger), bu yemish (last touched the index finger)
Bu demish (then shaked my thumb as if it was angry):
Nerde bene parçene? Nerde bene parçene?


I must have made looooots of mistakes and I know that, so if someone can correct me and tell me if they know this song (I know its meaning)? I'd be very happy.

looolllll

again...when yigiter and abdilhan wake up they will help u a lot more than me...

i grew up with "round and round the garden like a teddy bear...one step two step tickle em everywhere..."

i sort of know this...ur interpretation is pretty hard to uncover seeing as i dnt know it...but the brothers will know it and they will translate...

ill do my best...
the first bit is i think something like "round and round the circle"
i have no idea what bunarjik is...but ortasinda means "in the middle"
then he grabbed ur fingers one by one saying "this one held it"
"this one pulled it"
"this one cooked it"
"and this one ate it"
then the last finger was angry and said
"where is my....." i have no idea what parcene is...
lol...

that was fun....ur from bosnia rite sis...i remember...we met earlier and u explained that ur ancestry had something to do with the ottomans...

loll I'm from Kosovo. Yes, my ancestary has to do with the Ottomans, mashaAllah... My grandfather's father came from Istanbul but as far as I know my roots go to Bursa...

Anyways...

Let me try to explain the song bit where it wasn't clear: Bunargjik is meant to be a well, and in the middle of the well there's suppoused to be a fish. Naaa, it continues... The fingers are like "persons" what they did with the fish lool... Then that last where is my... bit, part. Bit of the fish.

The thumb gets angry and that's why my dad shaked it, lol I laughed so hard as a kid... ;D


InshaAllah the brothers can help too. But jazakAllah khair for trying sis, you did a very good job actually!

şuraya bir kuş konmuş(here a bird landed here)
bu tutmuş(this one caught -by showing thumb)
bu kesmiş(tihs one cut the bird-by showing the next finger)
bu pişirmiş(this one cooked-by showing the next)
bu yemiş(this one ate it-by showing the next finger)
bu da eve gelmiş(and for the last finger u say -and this one came to home and said-where is my piece,where is my piece and then u tivkle the baby immediately... n then it laughs so much ...
