For the first sentence, it doesn't mean to talk with Turkish fans. The writer of this sentence wants him to talk 'about' his Turkish fans. Because they love him very much and they want to hear that he knows it. But I think this is better:

I'll be the happiest girl in the world if you talk about your Turkish fans at least once.

For the second one, to be honest I don't know exactly what to use as the best word but I can explain you the meaning:

The writer and the Turkish fans love him so much and they want him to love them, too. So, is it to repay for their affection?


Yes, we can say "we breath because of you." It'll be better. Sorry, I didn't translate this part quite well.

For the last one, it means "Realize the Turkish fans, realize the presence of your fans !" So, should we use "to see" or "to look at" ?

OK, let's see if I understood.

I'll be the happiest girl in the world if you talk about your Turkish fans at least once.
YOUR TURKISH FANS LOVE YOU SO MUCH. PLEASE REWARD THEIR AFFECTION.
We breath because of you.
Our hearts beat because of you.
We hold on life because of you.
Take notice of us!
Take notice of the Turkish!


Does it convey the meaning?

Yes, I think it's okay now. But if you want to make sure, you may ask for other one's idea.

Ben de başta öyle çevirmiştim ama fanlar onun için yaşadıkların bahsediyorlar ya, o yüzden 'because of' da olabilir gibi düşündüm. Sizce tüm "because of"ları mı "with" yapmalıyız?

Nobody can live because of somebody. Therefore,to use "with" is better. (ofcouse for me)

Hi merdogan,

What I understood is that the writer says that "the fans breath", "their hearts beat" and "they hold on life" because their idol (the addressee) exists. So all that happens because of him/her.

Dear lilian,
I agree with Çevirmen.

The use of '-le' does indeed create the meaning 'with', however I'm not sure whether it's acceptable to use it in that way in English. It may convey a more literal meaning than intended in Turkish.

I wonder, why do Turks always write 'the World' (with a capital w), you don't use Dünya in normal writing either...??

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean. I didn't write "the World" with a capital w.

In normal writing sometimes we use 'dünya' and sometimes 'Dünya'. It depends on the sentence.

You didn't, but Cevirmen did. It was just a side-comment .

Hmm ok Actually, Turks generally make this mistake also in Turkish. It's not so clear how to write 'dünya' with a capital letter or not. I think that's why this problem comes out in English.

But as we know (for now) there is only a World.

Yes, it's true. I don't know exactly if we sometimes write "World" but in Turkish there are some rules. However, I think we shouldn't write the word with a capital letter (here). What do the other ones think?
lilian canale and Chantal?

In English it should never be written with a capital letter unless you speak about something like World War II.
