Vocabulary:

yeter [= enough;
cut it out]
tamam [=okay;
alright]
sustum [=I shut up;
I kept quiet].
(past
simple) from susmak= to keep quiet/silent; to hold one’s tongue; to shut up
Tip:
Although the
verb “sustum” is used here in the past simple tense, the
meaning is future [I will shut up/I will keep quiet]. This is common in Turkish, where the past
tense is sometimes used to talk about an action that will happen (future) or
is happening now (present continuous). E.g., when someone is rushing you, you
can answer by either saying “geldim” [=I came] or "geliyorum" [=I am coming], although you will hear “geldim” more often since it is like saying "I am already there, don't rush me."
