Gerçek/ doğruluk tutkunu


Explanation:
Bire bir çevirisi 'Gerçeğe aç olmak' fakat İngilizce'de kullanılan 'hungry for truth' or 'hungry for success' or 'hungry for challenge' gibi kavramlar daha çok tutkun olmak ile ilgili. 'Başarı tutkunu', doğruluk tutkunu' olmak gibi.

Dolayısıyla 'bir şeye aç olmak' burda tam karşılığını vermiyor.
'Gerçeklik tutkunu' olarak çevirirdim ben.

Kolay gelsin
