245: Everything fell apart


Her şey ne çabuk ne kolay dağıldı sonunda!
= How everything fell apart quickly and easily in the end!



Artist: Toygar Işıklı
Song: Sonunda



*dağıldı [from dağılmak= to fall to pieces; to collapse]


Language Tip:
"ne" can be used as a question word meaning "what?", or like in the sentence above, to express exclamation meaning "what!" or "how!":

Ne cabuk! [=How fast!]
Ne kolay! [=How easy!]


The word-for-word translation of the sentence is:

[Her şey]      [ne çabuk]   [ne kolay]   [dağıldı]    [sonunda!]
Everything      how fast        how easy      fell apart     in the end/eventually!


So the overall meaning would be something like: 
                   How everything fell apart like smoke in the end!
