: "not the least of which" DEFINITELY does NOT mean "büyük bir kısmı". It means ".... was one of the main reasons" - "başlıca / esas nedenlerinden biri de " Pls. see http://www.proz.com/kudoz/2199286

your link doesn't say that that's not what it means. thank you. But that's what it means eventually, though not the best translation.

hiç de önemsiz sayılamayacak bir neden de
"bunlar arasında hiç de önemsiz sayılamayacak bir neden de..."
ya da;
".... da bu nedenler arasında göz ardı edilemeyecek/önemli bir yere sahip."

: ben "göz ardı edilemeyecek kadar önemli" seçeneğini kullanmayı tercih ederdim. Asıl öneriniz "...nedenle" olsa daha iyi "neden de" rahat cümle kurmayı zorlayabilir. "Hiç de önemsiz" yerine "hiçe sayılmayacak bir sebepten/nedenden dolayı" diye olabilir. :)

bu kadar zahmet etmeseydiniz keşke, direkt disagree de verebilirdiniz. Bir an boş bulunup yazdım, ilk disagree'yi alınca da hide yapmak ayıp olur düşündüm, hiçbir yorum almamış olsaydı kapatırdım cevabı. :) yani bende bu anlamda olduğunu sanmıyorum
