What to do to us in the night in the ????
У нормальных пацанов в голове одно и то же:
Normal boys in the head are one and the same
Найти девчонок и устроить вечеринку,
Find girls and arrange dates (at night)
Надо бы, ребята, чик подснять и с ними почирикать.
Must would?, kids, chicks ??? and with them ???
Блондинка или брюнетка - какая разница?

Какие чики лучше? Лучшие чики наши!
Which girls are better? Our girls are better!
Где лучшие чики, ребята? Лучшие чики в Раше.
Where are the better girls, kid? Better girls are in Russia

Мальчик хочет в Тамбов - чики-чики там.
Boys want in ???(a city?) Girls, girls are there
Мальчик хочет в Ростов - чики-чики там.
Boys want in ???(a city?) Girls, girls are there
Парней с окраин в столице считают дикими -
Boys from the outskirts of the city are considered wild
Мы своих девчонок называем строго чиками.
We strictly call our girls Chicks

Припев:
Чики справа - чики слева - чики тут, чики там
Girls to the right, Girls to the left -Girls here, Girls There
Чики справа - чики слева - чики тут, чики там
Girls to the right, Girls to the left -Girls here, Girls There
Чич-чич-ики чики тут - чики справа - чики слева

Нет, не нужен нам турецкий берег и Африка,

Where are the better girls? We are here! Where are the better girls? Here!
У нас куда ни глянешь, бро, увидишь чик везде.

The parts in bold are phrases that Im not sure about otherwise words I don't know are in question marks.

Thanks!

Что делать нам по вечерам среди многоэтажек?
How can we busy ourselves in the night in the multistorey block of flats
Найти девчонок и устроить вечеринку,
Find girls and arrange a party
Надо бы, ребята, чик подснять и с ними почирикать.
Will be great to take some girls and have a chat
Смотри, какие бампера, какая задница!
Look, what tits, what an ass!
Мальчик хочет в Тамбов - чики-чики там.
The boy wants to go toTambov(a city) Girls, girls are there
Мальчик хочет в Ростов - чики-чики там.
The boy wants to go to Rostov(a city) Girls, girls are there
(here's the dualty - чик-чики - can be translated as you did but there's also an allusion to the song by Murat Nasiriv "The boy wants to go to Tambov" which used to be the hit http://www.zaycev.net/pages/235/23537.shtml
In this case чик-чики is not translated like in the song "Cuban Pete":
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJej6kCgxVM
Чё еще надо пацанам, надо пацанам. Где ....
What else do the boys need, the boys need.

Что любят чики, брачо? Чики любят тачки.
What do the girls love Bracho? girls love cars
Брачо, не врача
In this context брачо more likely means brother (as a form of addressing)
It also can be the song title http://www.zaycev.net/pages/276/27602.shtml
Чики любят тачки? Тачкам надо дать прокачку.
Girls love cars. We must drive (very approximate :D )
Об этом знает у нас любой Алёша,
About that knows any Alesha (pet name for Alexei)) - they mean everybody

Мы заряжаем для них любые колеса,
We do everything for them
Мы регулярно их водим в клубы и шопы.
We regularly take them to the clubs and shops
Реальная любовь - это не глупые сопли.
Real love - thats not a foolish snot (melodrama)
Ведь нашим чикам нужен перец, а не паприка.
Indeed our girls need peppers, and not paprika
(Pepper means penis here)
У нас куда ни глянешь, бро, увидишь чик везде.
Wherever you take a glance , bro, you will see girls anywhere

Guys, please don't post the lines like that: Russian-English-Russian-English, it's almost impossible to read. Кошмар какой-то!

"Мальчик хочет в Тамбов" is a cover-version of a brasilian song "Tic Tic Tac" (by Carapiches), which was popular in early 90s. The first lines of the chorus sound very similar to the Russian phrase "boy wants to Tambov", people found it amusing, and that's how cover-version appeared.

You can dl or listen to "Tic Tic Tac" here: http://dc25.4shared.com/download/644433 ... ic_Tac.mp3

Так проще сравнивать. :? Ты хочешь сказать, что два отдельных текста лучше? Тоже минус есть — придётся прокручивать страницу ради каждой строчки.

Без прбелов, строчка через строчку - лучше????
Всю жизнь делали так:

Что делать нам по вечерам среди многоэтажек?
У нормальных пацанов в голове одно и то же:
Найти девчонок и устроить вечеринку,
Надо бы, ребята, чик подснять и с ними почирикать.

What should we do at night among apartment buildings?
Regular guys have on their mind the same old thing:
Find girls, arrange a party,
Guys, we should pick up girls and have a chat with them.

Блондинка или брюнетка - какая разница?
Смотри, какие бампера, какая задница!
Какие чики лучше? Лучшие чики наши!
Где лучшие чики, ребята? Лучшие чики в Раше.

A blond or a brunette - who cares?
Look! What boobs, what an ass!
Which chicks are better? Our chicks are the best!
Where are the best chicks, guys? The best chicks are in Russia.

По-моему удобнее. А разибраться в простыне текста сплошняком, перескакивая с алфавита на алфавит... Даже строфу толком не прочитаешь, чтобы понять общий смысл. У меня лично отбило охоту переводить на середине песни. Хотя и было желание помочь. :(

Об этом способе я и забыла.)))))

Если желание ещё не пропало:

- Пантелеич, а ты вот знаешь как городские баб называют?
- Ну?
- Чики!
- Гм, бл...
- Поубивал бы...
- А может в город поедем? Познакомимся с городскими чиками.
- Поехали. Но только учти, Пантелеич, мне нравятся женщины за 50.
- Ну, за 50 это недорого.

Что делать нам по вечерам среди многоэтажек?
У нормальных пацанов в голове одно и то же:
Найти девчонок и устроить вечеринку
Надо бы, ребята, чик подснять и с ними почирикать.

Блондинка или брюнетка, какая разница?
Смотри какие ......, какая задница.
Какие чики лучше? Лучше чики наши!
Где лучше чики, ребята? Лучше чики в Раше!

Мальчик хочет в Тамбов, чики-чики-та!
Мальчик хочет в Ростов, чики-чики-та!
Парней с окраин считают в столице дикими.
Мы своих девчонок называем строго чиками.

Чики, чики, чики, чики, чики, чики тут, чики там.
Чики, чики, чики, чики, чики, чики тут, чики там.
Чики, чики, чики, чики, чики, чики тут, чики там.
Вот, что надо пацанам, надо пацанам.

Что любят чики ...? Чики любят тачки!
Чики любят тачки? Тачкам нужно дать прокачку!
Что любят чики ...? Чики любят мачо!
Чики любят мачо? Мачо мускулы не прячут!

Об этом знает у нас любой Алеша.
Мы заряжаем для них любые колеса,
Мы регулярно водим их в клубы и шопы.
Реальная любовь, это видно по жопе.

Не нужен нам турецкий берег и Африка,
Ведь нашим чикам нужен перец, а не паприка.
Где лучше чики? Здесь! Где лучше чики? Здесь!
У нас куда не глянешь, то увидишь чик везде.

Чики, чики, чики, чики, чики, чики тут, чики там.
Чики, чики, чики, чики, чики, чики тут, чики там.
Чики, чики, чики, чики, чики, чики тут, чики там.
Вот, что надо пацанам, надо пацанам.

- Вау, НЛО!
- НЛО... BMW!
- BMW? А BMW развивает...
- BMW развивает 250 км в час.
- Классно! Пантелеич, а мой Запор?
- Твой Запор развивает сколиоз.

О том, что такое прокачка тачки, и о других фразах из этой песни.

Thanks everyone for the help!

луговой лютик- I read Брачо аs Врачо so thats why I put doctor. Also, thank you!

vox05- Thanks for your help too. And I think you are asking if I used an online translator? I had to use it for some words but otherwise a lot came from my head. And I totally forgot about the whole Тачки part because I couldn't understand most of it. The only thing I got was netsurfer's post of

You have no idea how to translate. The translation has to make sense in English as well, you know. You don't translate things word for word. Russian word order can differ for English also, so you don't copy the word order of the Russian exactly.

Sorry TATY, just when I didn't know the grammar I would put the words in the order they appeared and as they went down I would change them to make sense. The ones you saw to be completely out of order were probably more confusing to me than you. I only translated word for word when it made no sense at all to me.

Especially the part where I translated:
Надо бы, ребята, чик подснять и с ними почирикать.
as
Must would?, kids, chicks ??? and with them ???
I knew "Надо", and "и с ними" and ребята I just assumed was used like kid as in Hey kid! Get over here! This was just a bad case of me trying to make it look like I knew what I was doing. Sorry about that! Also подснять and почирикать weren't in my dictionary.

Автобус, а где ответ на мой вопрос?

Простите, я не увидел твой вопрос...

That was another one where I had no idea what was going on. If I had known that Алёша was a form of Алексей, it may have been more clear. (probably not) Is it better to just leave it as "I have no idea" or try to translate it word for word?

Also, I have a question for you(or anyone who can answer)
You said:У меня маленький вопросик.
To me that means: I have a small question.
I would say: У меня есть маленький вопросик.
To me that means: I have a small question.
But there must be a difference? so when is "есть" used in this situation?

Ты спрашиваешь моего совета? Что лучше делать в таких случаях? Я не знаю, что тебе ответить.
Ты понял, что это имя. Уменьшительное от Алексей там или какое-то другое имя, в данном случае неважно. Так что не probably not, а точно not. Это точно не помогло бы тебе понять смысл всей строки.
"У нас" не всегда переводится как we have. Это может значить in our country, in my family, here и много других вещей (важен контекст).

Не знаю, я так не говорю. То есть обычно не говорю. :lol: Как не говорю много других слов, которые и так подразумеваются.)) Ты бы так сказал потому, что "держишься" за английский.)) Оба варианта правильны.

Насчёт "Простите". Можешь на ты.

Так где же ответ на тот вопрос?

программа - software
So Zaya basically asked did you use an (online) translator.
I must admit that's what I thought too. 90% of your previous translation was a complete gibberish. Try to analyze it using the one guys provided to you, and you'll probably agree.

That was another one where I had no idea what was going on.

А я не думаю, что это ответ на мой вопрос. Если я не ошибаюсь, это значит: "Это был ещё один случай, когда я не понимал смысла сказанного". И что ты сделал? Перевёл онлайн-переводчиком или перевёл сам?
Just tell me, you or a translator.))

It just confirm version about an online translator. Translating word to word, wrong accepting meaning and so on. All of them indicate to translator using. I almost have no doubts...

I knew most of the words, it was just the grammar and sentence structure that got me and I couldn't get the meaning from the sentence.

Examples:
Надо бы, ребята, чик подснять и с ними почирикать.
I translated as: Must would?, kids, chicks ??? and with them ???
because I knew Надо=must, ребята=children, чик=chicks, и с ними=with them
So since I knew 2 and 2 I tried to make 4 but I ended up making 3. The other words in it weren't in my dictionary. I had to put ??? for these and that made my translation worse.

Where do you see it obvious that I used a translator?

I know I guessed on some words such as "вечеринку" I thought to myself "I see "Вечер" in there and that means night so what would be arranged in the night with girls... hmmmm" and then I came up with dates (at night).

А я уж думала клещи применять... :lol: :lol: :lol:

It seems obvious because the process you described (mindless word by word translation) is exactly how online translator works. You'll never succeed that way (sad, but true :().

The trick is translating sentences, not words. Words DOESN'T MATTER! First, you always can look them up in the dictionary later, second, if you know HOW to translate, you'll understand the phrase even if you don't know all the words involved.

The easy way is to find the subject and the predicate of the sentence (who does what). In Russian they can "hide" anywhere, but in English you have a strict word order, so you need to analyze the sentence in Russian, and then put the words in proper "English" order.

The most simple example is "Мачо мускулы не прячут". (a) Subject (who) is "мачо", (b) predicate (what they do) is "не прячут". (c) "Мускулы" is an object.

a + b+c = Macho don't hide (their) muscles.
Your translation (Macho muscles don't hide), even if it's very close and all the words are correct, gives an impression, that we'are talking about some mutants (macho-muscles), who "don't hide". :)

Just read some grammar, and then practice on sentences, that have been already tranlated, comparing the Russian originals and English translations. It can be fun! Like a puzzle. :)

I see what you are saying now. But when I was translating it, I didnt see мачо as the subject. I figured it was a borrowed word that modified мускулы so I had macho muscles don't hide. I can see how in Russian this is like your "mutant muscles" but it is fully possible in English to say that macho muscles don't hide. Also, when using Macho in English it is usually used as an adjective so that is the way I used it. But I realize that I'm translating from Russian, not from English so it is different.

---

Really? Ok, I didn't know that.

Also the example about macho wasn't the best, because technically speaking it can be translated as "Muscles don't hide macho" (where "muscles" is a subject). "Macho" is indeclinable like many other borrowed word in neutral (i.e. ending on 'o' or 'e'), so it's impossible to identify case and that causes some confusion (in Russian cases help to understand connections between words, as you know). In cases like that you can only rely upon a context.

Quote:

---

---

Можно-то можно, но смысл будет другим.

Macho don't hide (their) muscles. - Мачо не прячут мускулы.
Macho muscles don't hide. - Мускулы мачо не прячутся.

Возможно, ты не видишь разницы из-за того, что в английском и "прятать", и "прятаться" это to hide. Но она есть. В первом случае to hide - это "to deliberately put or keep something or someone in a place where they cannot easily be seen or found", во втором - "to go or stay in a place where no one will see or find you" (приблизительно; надеюсь, вы поняли, что я имею в виду).

Причем второе лично мне вообще кажется бредом. "Твои мускулы прячутся, мои мускулы не прячутся", ну не смешно ли? Впрочем, мое мнение значения не имеет.

Нормально Macho muscles don't hide звучит по-английски или нет, неважно, смысл изменился. gRomoZeka дело говорит.

Мне тоже иногда помогал понять смысл именно грамматический разбор. Правда, предложения были немецкими.

it can be translated as "Muscles don't hide macho" (where "muscles" is a subject).

Ну, на то мозги даны, чтоб понять, какой из возможных вариантов логичен.)

Простите, я не увидел твой вопрос...

Прости or ваш. Make up your mind, you can't use formal простите with informal твой.

So either, простите... ваш or прости... твой

I knew most of the words, it was just the grammar and sentence structure that got me and I couldn't get the meaning from the sentence.

Examples:
Надо бы, ребята, чик подснять и с ними почирикать.
I translated as: Must would?, kids, chicks ??? and with them ???
because I knew Надо=must, ребята=children, чик=chicks, и с ними=with them
So since I knew 2 and 2 I tried to make 4 but I ended up making 3. The other words in it weren't in my dictionary. I had to put ??? for these and that made my translation worse.

Since when does ребята mean children? You mean Ребёнок or Дети?

Ребята = Guys, just like we say in english.
подснять is pretty self explanatory. At a glance, u know под means lift (like поднять to lift up) and снять to get, grab.

so the really only slangy word is почерикать, which is like попiздеть/побалтать (поговорить). Just hang out, talk chill, whatever.

I wouldn't assume you used a translator but I think you coulda fixed the word order at least a little bit. You looked like a not so educated Russian guy translating from Russian to English.

Ребята can be a plural of Ребёнок. But it is more commonly used as Guys like you said. I don't know where I got it from but somehow there it was tied to children in my head. Another oops

Examples of where I could have done it better? Also, that is what I am! A not so educated person trying to translate :lol: I have only been studying Russian for 1.5 years. (In school)

And Zaya after reading what gRomoZeka said I realized that in order for Мускулы to be the subject the verb would need to be reflexive.

I was confused because Мускулы was in accusative plural which looks like Nominative plural. This made me think it was the subject because as I said before in English I think of Macho as an adjective, and since it has no declination, it wouldn't change.

Well sure, I'll give you that but come on... Talk about kids in a song that is mostly about boobs and butts? :) Didn't you know that Russia is famous for its care for children and the elderly? :P

Well I dunno, I've been learning for 5 years so its a bit of an unfair advantage... but I dunno

У нормальных пацанов в голове одно и то же:
Every guy is thinking the same thing
Найти девчонок и устроить вечеринку,
Find chicks and start partying.
Блондинка или брюнетка - какая разница?
A blonde or a a brunette, what's the difference?

I'm not going to type it all because it would be pointless as it has already been corrected. But you just have to learn the difference between the Russian way of describing things and English. Sometimes, words or sets of words have to be omitted because they become awkward when translated.

Автобус, do you have any other song you'd like to translate?

I'm waiting for your next translation (not word by word one, but new and improved ;)). Also a description of the mental steps you made to translate sentences you don't fully understand could be of use. This way we can help you better.
