Is it really Russian?

I got this messages via ICQ instant messenger:

1.Č ňĺáĺ ńďŕńčáî,äđóă.

2.Çäðàâñòâóéòå, ÷èñëî èíòåðíåò-ïîëüçîâàòåëåé äîñòèãëî ïî÷òè 2 ìèëëèàðäà, ïîýòîìó, ïîëüçîâàòåëè-ìîøåííèêè, èíòåðíåò-âîðû, õàêåðû áóäóò ïðîñòî óäàëåíû.

On this site http://www.polyglot-learn-language.com/ ... -3241.html can read this:


In Russian:

Hello! - Officially: Çäðàâñòâóéòå[Zdravstvuite], Ïðèâåòñòâóþ[Privietstvuju] Non-officially: Ïðèâåò![Privet], Ïðåâåä![Preved] (It's perverted Privet), Çäîðîâà![Zdarova], Õàé![Hi]

Good morning/evening/day - Äîáðîå óòðî/Äîáðûé âå÷åð/äåíü [Dobroye utro/Dobriy vecher/den']

And I wonder if the messages I got via ICQ are really Russian messages what alphabet is it? I'm really puzzled. :shock:

Thanks so much for your effort to help me. :roll:

That was exactly not russian. Something must have gone wrong with the site. The correct is:

Здравствуйте - [Zdravstvuite] - you wrote it so, but we don't pronounce the first "v", it's more [zdrastvuite]
Приветствую - [privietstvuju]
Привет - [Privet]
Здорово - [Zdarova]

you can also use Добрый день (Good afternoon) and Добрый вечер (Good evening)

To see this message in a correct way you should change encoding in your messenger (it should be somewhere in "settings" or "options" or "view") from "Western Europe" to "Cyrillic". There may be several "Cyrillic" encodings ("Cyrillic Windows", "Cyrillic KOI8-R" etc) - check them all until you see something reasonable.

I don't use official ICQ client but Russian client called QIP Infium. And there is just setting language interface. But I think the problem is not with my messenger. Because once I got this message: Спасибо,Карол!. And sending messeges written in Russian are viewed correctly...

Anyways such things sometimes happen with Russian texts transferred across the internet and can depend on a number of reasons. This message is not lost but interpreted by the PC in a wrong way. To read such text you need a kind of computer voodoo. :) Maybe someone who did work with ICQ can advise something more exact...
