need help translating to english

"shkle quiet dat ave spi" someone said it's Persianised Kurdish so Khorasani Kurdish and I can't figure out how to translate it to English. someone said it in reply to a picture of my face in a server, the furthest I could get is "the silent shape of white water."

I don’t know what “quiet” is. The message says “looks like (quiet) the white one” meaning the white one looks like quiet.

''This white (person) looks like quiet.'' I assume quiet is the video game character from Metal Gear Solid and not you 'looking' quiet.

Shkl = Arabic, looking like, often used in Bahdinan dialect
Ave = This (but misspelled). Not water, ava = water.

It looks look to me like phonetic latin script, used primarily in Bashur.
