Thread: Hi, can someone traslate my name to russian :)

can someone traslate my name to russian
My name is (Mike) thx a lot..

well i know i clould make my username as my own name..
And then it would Translate it automatic, but i wasn't thinking about that. :P
Hope someone can help me..

What's the habit to ask to translate foreign names into Russian? Names are untranslatable! Why do Russians never ask to translate their names into English?

If you're interested in Russian spelling of your name, it's Майк. And the most of Russians would call you so. As for Russian translation, the most related Russian name is Михаил (imho).

Okay i see your point.. :P
But thx anyway..
well... its ok with the spelling :P

Mikhail is the Russian version of Michael...

Of course, you're wrong There are no Russian and English versions, there are Russian and English names.

LOL! Forgive Americans for the obssession of many of them with different language equivalents of names... It is a sport for many... And the poor Chinese, imagine what it's like, Americans asking them what their names are in chinese and what they look like in characters...

Уже рассказывал этот анекдот:

Зайц, Волк и Хорек собрались ехать в Китай. В китайском посольстве им сказали, что свои имена они должны переделать на китайский лад, заяц сказал: "Я буду Зуй", волк сказал: "Я буду Вуй". Хорек сказал: "я тогда вообще в Китай не поеду".
