Lale Erguner (X) Oct 23, 2009:
Aybaran's translation is better Murad Awad's translation tells me nothing... Two verbs that mean 'removed' and 'marked' don't seem to have anything to do with tombstoning. I don't agree with Binnur Tuncel's suggestion to remove the 'horizontal' from the translation, because tombstoning is about a horizontal mess. So, I suggest that 'yatay yığılma' is accepted for want of a better term.
I mostly agree with aybaran Hi Romina,<br><br>I have been checking the whole internet websites about the term "tombstoning". Hardly found anything in the context you are giving above.<br>But, from the description you suggest, Aybaran seems to be right. I would rather say simply ''yığılma'' though. ''Horizontal'' juxtaposition as he suggests does not mean so much to me...
