Thread: Translation of order form

With google Translate and my tiny knowledge of Russian I was able to figure out most of what I needed, but a couple things I can't figure out. Here is the order form http://members.cox.net/gingerale/ozon.jpg

The first one is Country
the second index? I don't know what this means. Zip code maybe?
Third is State
Fourth google translate says is town
Fifth is Address
Sixth google translate says is "Name receiver (specify complete, for example: Ivan Ivanov)" Does this mean the person who will sign for it or something? Or just the person it's being sent to? I'm use to имя or зовут so don't understand anything on this line.

What is эакаэа?

Country
ZIP code
State
City (or town or village)
Adress
Full name of the reciever

I doubt about the Zip code,
but when you write the British adress the index seems like

Индекс = Zip code (AmE) = Post Code (BrE)

It's the person it's sent to, i.e. you.

TATY! Using your adress I tried at very least to change your index. I thought you wouldn't mind if I did so.

I just can't understand why did you rewrite it? Now your adress is evident and everyone can see it clear! :P

Ok great. Thanks Leof and тату

By the way what is the best way to transliterate "ё" correctly? Would it be "yo" or "io"?

I prefer "yo".

I think it is Yo when Ё (in the beginning of the word) and after the vovel and io when it stands after a consonants. Чё can be transliterated like cho.
Am I wrong?

Academic standard transliteration of ё is e (Gorbachev, Khrushchev, Potemkin.... Alla Pugacheva).

In more everyday transliteration I'd just stick to "yo" in all cases. But obviously you can do the whole "io" after a consonant thing, if you want.

Чё as Cho is more a phonetic rendering (transcription) rather than a transliteration, as you are not preserving the original spelling and instead focusing on pronunciation.
