Thread: Some words

Hi, I'm drawing this picture and thought that I would add some Russian words to float around on it. I'm not sure of the rules of the Russian language but I wanted these words to be on it.

Love
Hate

War
Peace

Death
Life

Compassion
Hatred

Thanks a bunch.

Любовь
Ненависть

Война
Мир

Смерть
Жизнь

Сострадание
Ненависть...is there a difference between "hate" and "hatred" in Russian? I mean, they mean the same thing in English, it's just that sometimes one sounds better than the other.

I am not 100% certain on those last two; can someone else confirm?

Yes, the last one doesn't seem right. I would say the opposite of compassion is not hatred, but antipathy or enmity (отвращение or вражда).

Compassion and Hatred were little goofs, but hey thanks for the help.
