I wonder if you mean....

I was sure I would find you here.

That does match the translations better.

I've unlinked the sentences that didn't match.
I'm not sure about the Turkish, though.

Thanks a lot, marafon!

Could you check the Turkish translation? The English sentence does not mean "I was sure I would find you here" (inner certainty) but "I was bound to find you here" (outer certainty).

Gulo_Luscus Gulo_Luscus 2024 m. lapkričio 23 d. 2024 m. lapkričio 23 d. 19:44:12 UTC flag Report link Permalink

I believe that “to find you” conveys a sense of inevitability.
I also think it’s difficult to express the exact difference without adding extra words, such as “of course,” “certainly,” or “absolutely.”

I’ve added “Seni burada bulacağımdan emindim.” for “I was sure to find you here.”
This translation conveys slightly more certainty. However, it’s still acceptable to keep all translations linked.
