    A Clockword Orange

    The film is on the TV right now. It's quite interesting hearing them mispronouncing Russian words in a English accent.

    So far, I've heard "Horrorshow", "droog", "mychik", "gloopy" and "ruka".

    LOL, "You filthy old sumka"

    Gulliver's Travels?!?!

    I couldn't work out why he kept saying "Gulliver" for head - I thought "what's that got to do with Gulliver's Travels by Johnathan Swift?"

    Then of course, it dawned on me - голово!

    Not forgetting bog, chelavek, dyevochka, malchik, and slovo.

    By the way, TATY, I think it was цука - b*tch, not сумка - bag

    Lists words that are used, and notes ones that don't appear to be of Russian origin... I didn't realize there were so many!

    How about "старая кошёлка"? I'd say it's pretty close to the "old bag".

    Yeah, I think so. I wonder what "старая клюшка" will be in English then :)
