I think native Russian speakers can confuse some words and stresses, but they won't confuse forms of the verb, cases and declensions.
I wonder what mistakes can't be done by native English speakers.

Not entirely true. In some cases we do confuse declensions. Please decline for me "5296".Quote:

Ebonics do a lot breaking rules. Sometimes they say something like that:

In my favorite writers book (Terry Pratchett) witches (country sticks) speak very similar.

Good choice.
Pratchet writes so many books, you could make a full-time career out of translating for him :D
unfortunately the pay shit for translations in Russia. That was for fun.
Now I take full-time carrier just reading him, my goal now is to comlete reading all of his books. Unfortunately I do not have a lot of time for that.
Comments are promising. :)
Bydaway, maybe I'm ignorant of the idea but why not "Глиняные ноги" to make it sound more Russian?
yes, Глиняные ноги would be much better, but for whatever reason I originally translated this way, and it just stuck there. There is a link to "Колосс на глиняных ногах", and it is gone. The worst thing I have nobody to blame outside myself. :(Quote:

Поздно! Даёшь всем участникам форума по авторскому экемпляру! :)
и где я их столько возьму? Впрочем, если купите себе, вышлете мне, я подпишу и пошлю обратно. Вполне возможно.
Это была шутка, я даже понятия не имею о чём эта книга.
очень зря, книга действительно сильнейшая, впрочем ка и другие книги автора. Я надеюсь, я не шибко испортил ее переводом. :)
