*When you say "serin" in Türkçe you talk about the weather. This stuff is so cool! Bu şey çok harika!
Therefore, it's better to translate "cool!" as hârika! or süper , mükemmel.
*Haydi (in speaking hadi)
* Akıllı or Zeki, for clever is better if you didn't mean skillful with the word "clever"
+Maharetli or marifetli is skillful
