Art/Literary - Idioms / Maxims / Sayings / Idioms | | Turkish term or phrase: Kardeşime kafa taktın. | Greetings,
A relative said this to me recently – I think she meant that I had (wrongly?) decided that her brother thought in a particular way and/or had certain intentions, though I'm not completely sure.
All the best, and many thanks,
