firesoldier845 Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 My wife is Polish\Russian and I was going to suprise her with a new tatoo with our daughter's name on it in Russian. I don't want to ask my wife for the correct spelling because then she will know something is up and I want it to be a suprise. Our dauger's name is Aleksandra = александра - I'm pretty sure that's the correct translation - can anyone confirm? thanks
Dronas Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 Aleksandra == Александра or Саша or Сашенька or Саня or Шурочка or Шура ;) DimAss Coljo Yappo
P-Y-T-H-O-N Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 Confirmed. The spelling is correct, just don't forget to capitalize the first "A". Cheers.
ThirdELTPoznan Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 If your wife is Polish Aleksandra is just Aleksandra often called just 'Ola' Cheers 3ELT GROM- Grupa Reagowania Operacyjno Manewrowego
pappavis Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 Russian names Aleksandra == Александра or Саша or Сашенька or Саня or Шурочка or Шура ;) Russian woman have poetic names.. :) My ex girlfriend' name is Katserina, but also known as Katya, Katshush, Katshushka. Now i have it quite simply as Vika coz thats the only variation for Victoria. Perhaps Vikush is a differnt for my girfriend Vika? :) :) Russian names are just poetry. met vriendelijke groet, Михель "умный, спортсмен, комсомолетс" [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] [TABLE]SPECS: i9-9900K 32gigs RAM, Geforce 2070RTX, Creative XFi Fata1ity, TIR5, Valve Index & HP Reverb, HOTAS Warthog, Logitech G933 Headset, 10Tb storage.[/TABLE]
Dmut Posted July 26, 2005 Posted July 26, 2005 LOL! Katshush, Katshushka - quite a interesting trasliteration :D Better to pronaunce it as Kat'usha or Kat`ushka. ps: about Vikush - well, you may try call her with this, but keep yourself prepared for dodging flying saucers or frying pans :D:D:D "There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general: recklessness, which leads to destruction; cowardice, which leads to capture; a hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults; a delicacy of honor which is sensitive to shame; over-solicitude for his men, which exposes him to worry and trouble."

Dalus Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Russian names are just poetry. Is it joke? We have 10 names for men and 15 for women, the rest just diminutives. P.S.Konchita - rulez :)
P-Y-T-H-O-N Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 LOL! This thread is a candidate for the most OT!
Dmut Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 well, some rare russian names are definitely a poetry :) while most common names are quite plane in spelling. ps: it is most OT from the beginning :D "There are five dangerous faults which may affect a general: recklessness, which leads to destruction; cowardice, which leads to capture; a hasty temper, which can be provoked by insults; a delicacy of honor which is sensitive to shame; over-solicitude for his men, which exposes him to worry and trouble."

pappavis Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 LOL! Katshush, Katshushka - quite a interesting trasliteration :D Better to pronaunce it as Kat'usha or Kat`ushka. When i was still a nitwit with the russian language i called her "Katushka" and she thought it was funny. I never knew why? But, my brother' wife (a russia, too) told me that a "Katush" is the needle for clothing handwork!! Hahahahaha, oke so i got the joke too :P. Well it's always nice to learn some new russian words :). in 8 weeks i am going to Peterburg, Moscow, Volgograd, Nizhnij Novgorod so i will have plenty of oppertunity to practise the language there :) met vriendelijke groet, Михель "умный, спортсмен, комсомолетс" [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] [TABLE]SPECS: i9-9900K 32gigs RAM, Geforce 2070RTX, Creative XFi Fata1ity, TIR5, Valve Index & HP Reverb, HOTAS Warthog, Logitech G933 Headset, 10Tb storage.[/TABLE]
