SCK - Merry-go-rounds

Alright, Dazzlingic it is 👍.

Anyway, if I can just ask something here in the chat... For those of you who actually understand Turkish, how did you learn it? Was it just from binge-watching shows or what?

Growing up, I was always surrounded by people from all sorts of backgrounds—my closest neighbors were actually Turkish families. Their kids were my peers, so we spent all our time playing outside together. They’d come over to my place, I’d head to theirs, our parents would grab coffee together... it was just a really tight-knit way to live.
As we got older, things shifted slightly—we’d sneak off to corners just to share a cigarette or gossip about our crushes and how school was going...
Eventually, we grew up, got married, and started our own lives, though we still lived close to our families. Even then, we kept those family gatherings going.
It was one of those situations where learning each other's language just happens naturally. They learned mine, and I learned theirs.
There were times they thought they could keep a secret from me by whispering in Turkish right in front of me, thinking I couldn't understand a word—xaxaxaxaxaaaa

The most emotional scene, where I actually caught myself by surprise, was when she thinks he remembered... right there by the fireplace while he's retelling that myth.
😢

When he comes back, I can only manage one glance through my fingers... his reaction is just too much to bear. I wasn't really part of both those moments, so...

It hits hard when they're out by that cottage, talking about her trauma and her parents for the first time.

Even though it’s strictly Serkan’s moment, the most moving scene Kevin played might be when Alptekin finally tells him the truth about Edini's parents.🙏

SCK That terrace scene hit me right in the feels too. Kevin absolutely nailed it. That walk away, the look on his face... you could actually see someone who’s completely lost hope, just pure heartbreak in that moment.

Hande was just as good during her comeback scenes. You could read every single emotion on her face. And that final scene of the episode? The proposal? That look she gave him was easily one of the most touching moments in the whole show.

Honestly, I think Hande really found her stride during those early episodes when she had to carry all those heavy, emotional beats. She totally shined there. As for Kevin, he’s been top-tier since the very first episode.

It was a good life.
Fast forward through growing up, and we were sneaking off to corners just to smoke a cigarette or gossip about crushes and school grades...
Then we grew up, got married, and moved out, but we still stayed close. We kept hanging out with both families.
Learning the language just kind of happens naturally. They picked up mine, I picked up theirs.
Whenever they wanted to keep a secret from me, they'd whisper in Turkish, totally unaware that I could actually understand them, xaxaxaxaxaaaa

🤣 🤣 🤣
That sounds pretty cool. There aren't any Turkish people in my neck of the woods.

I came here mostly to see if there was any teasing or bullying, since it seems like things are more chill here🙏.

Most people probably won't get the first part—just skip it. As for the second half, we're all in the same boat there. 😂

This is top tier 🙏 🙏 🙏 ... honestly, bravo on the creativity! I'm hoping she mentions us again in some future novel 👍.

That sounds awesome! I don't have any Turks living near me.

I also wanted to mention how much I love the drama, especially since we don't really have that kind of public call-out culture here. 🙏.

Did I miss some big fight happening somewhere?🤣
As far as the language goes, I'm totally lost... I could watch Turkish shows for a hundred years and still not learn a single thing.

As far as the language goes, I’m totally clueless... I could watch Turkish shows for a hundred years and still not learn a single thing.

No fight, YOK.😁

What do you mean "clueless"? You know "evet," don't you? You know "bu ne." You know "merhaba." That's plenty. You show up in Turkey, say "merhaba." If you don't understand something, you just say "bu ne, bu ne?" Once it clicks, you say "evet."🤣

shadoworca5 said:No fighting here 😁

What's the big deal? You just need a few basics. You know "yes," right? You know "no"? You know "hello"? That’s plenty. You fly to Turkey, you say hello. When you don't understand something, you just say "no, no." And once it clicks, you say "yes." 🤣

Ahahahha ..I even know how to say "hair"... thank you... of course... I go to Turkey and just repeat those few words and I'm golden 😂

Twitter really doesn't seem to like SCK... there's no way Edser shows up in the trending topics.. I highly doubt Murat has anything to do with it 😂
#killmurat

These are my absolute most emotional scenes.... 🙂

Kudos to all the ladies out there who actually understand and speak Turkish🙏.
I can hold my own in a few different languages, but man, I swear, Turkish just won't stick in my brain no matter how hard I try.

@ Ruya dropped her bag, perfume, and mascara—I’m feeling pretty good about that outcome🙂

@ Ruya, the bag, the perfume, and the mascara all fell, but I'm still feeling pretty good about it🙂

Man... back home, everything has been shut down since December🙄
you can basically only buy bread and toilet paper😁

Just dropping by to claim some space here🤣
I have to agree, that terrace scene with Serkan was absolutely top-tier. Honestly, I think those moments and episode 11 are the absolute highlights for me... Kevin is just being his classic self there👍
Whether it was reading The Little Prince for the first and second time, sitting by the fireplace, or when Serkan finally returns, Hande was just incredible in those scenes👍
That little tear she shed on the couch while hugging him? Simply perfection...
I’m really hoping we just get pure comedy and good vibes waiting for us this summer😁
On a side note, I went on vacation a couple of years ago to the Turkish side of Cyprus, and after having a few cocktails, I started trying to chat with the waiter in Turkish. The poor guy was practically rolling on the floor laughing...

I honestly can't tell where we're even posting anymore... it's all over the place... I'm totally lost🤣

Anyway, Cvele... get well soon, hang in there, and take care of yourself. Keep an eye on how you're feeling; those tests can give false positives sometimes. I'm not trying to scare you, but just stay safe 🙂

On another note, they both liked and followed this girl Hande at almost the exact same time... but then Hande changed her mind and unfollowed her
Let's hope it doesn't turn into a repeat of what happened before... we might want to suspect they're actually hanging out somewhere together🤣

Just kidding... but plenty of people were thinking the same thing. I live for the madness on Twitter🤣

hahahahahahaha. You’re out of your mind. Total garbage 🤣.

So this is where we're looking. If they decide to let us chat in that main thread, then we'll move over there. Honestly, I'm a little lost on where everything is supposed to be.

Cvele, hang in there. Just take it slow and stay sharp. Don't let them get to you, man 😁.

Anyway, Cvele... I really hope you feel better soon. Hang in there and take care of yourself. Just keep an eye on how you're feeling; sometimes those tests can give false positives, and I don't want to worry you... but just, you know, stay safe. 🙂

On another note, they both liked this girl Hande and guy Kevin almost at the exact same time... but then Hande changed her mind and unfollowed him.
I guess we should wonder if they're actually hanging out somewhere together... 🤣

I'm probably just joking around... but I think a lot of people were thinking the exact same thing. I swear, I just love the madness on Twitter. 🤣

Thank you, you're like a sister to me; you really know how to comfort someone.🤣
Please, let's not act like clowns.☕

Are you guys ready?? 🍿

Don't worry, lightning won't strike the same place twice.
Does that satisfy you?
🤣

Here's some proof for you right here:🤣

It looks like things are running a bit behind on my end; I'm still seeing commercials.🤔

Did you Photoshop that? You should know I was already planning on making a Photoshop edit for Cvele🤣.
