| miss needle-features ekşi suratlı Explanation: This one very similar to "muşmula suratlı", maybe not that artistic. "At suratlı" makes me rather think of someone (a woman) with long face and a dull expression. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day2 hrs (2015-07-11 13:21:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I couldn't post under the discussion. "ekşi suratlı kadın" On the other hand, I see that there is a literal translation of "ekşi suratlı" as "sour-faced". "A more sour-faced woman never lived. I’ve often wondered what she’d be like drunk—but that’s what no one will ever know." from Agatha Christie, One Two, Buckle My Shoe -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day2 hrs (2015-07-11 13:22:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Translation: "Ondan daha ekşi suratlı bir kadın olamaz. Ekseri, 'Bu kadın sarhoş olsaydı nasıl bir hal alırdı acaba?' diye düşünürdüm. Ama bunu hiçbir zaman bilemeyeceğiz." |
