Help needed from a Turkish speaker

14 replies

I'm looking for a Turkish speaker who would be willing to translate a couple of sentences from English into Turkish for me please.
The situation is that I (British) am being harassed by my Turkish ex (who is a married man). He has paid a tracing agency to track me down (they gave him my address after he paid them to trace me) after I ignored more than 100 emails from him :-/
He is in another country so the UK police probably wouldn't be able to do much.
I want to send a polite email to his wife, telling her that he husband is speaking very disrespectfully of her and chasing me behind her back. I just want it to stop. Perhaps he will stop if I tell his wife. Thank you if you can help.

Google translate works pretty well

Yes Google translate. Keep the English version simple and unambiguous to avoid mistranslations. I have tested the Turkish and it’s very good.

Feel hesitant about using an online translation tool as I know they're not always accurate.

I'm so sorry, no idea what's going on :( Do you have an email address that you could possibly send to me via PM, then I could send the message by email?
