Gerisini ben hallederim.
= I'll figure the rest out.

*Gidebilirsiniz [= from gitmek= to go]. You all can go. This form is used to address either a group of people (all of you) or a single person if you want to sound formal. For the single, informal form "Sen= You", you'll will have to cut out the final "iz", and thus the verb will be "Gidebilirsin".

Sen= Singular "you".
Siz= Formal, polite "you" or "all of you".

*Ben hallederim.
= I'll figure that out; I'll take care of it; I'll handle it; I'm on it.
