зимою

Я читаю Приключения барона Мюнхаузена (я новичок). "Дело было зимою." что является зимою по-английски?

-спасибо

WINTER

It happened in Winter

"Зимою" - это то же самое, что "зимой".

Со мною = со мной
Идти своей дорогою = идти своей дорогой

и т.д.

То же самое с прилагательными (синей = синею).

That makes sense, gracias.


--Большое спасибо, Оля + Vadim84--

-ою is the archaic, now poetic feminine instrumental ending.

Зимою is archaic Зимой (in winter).
And poetic as well.

Здесь все игнорируют сказанное выше?

Хорошо!
Моя очередь!

This means the same with зимой.
ою is an old form of the ending ой.
It sounds very poetic!
Compare with весной - весною.

I hope it was more than helpful! :D


Ah, yes, one more thing - it sounds very poetic and thus is used in poetry...quite often...yes!
(Вот, я даже добавил новую важную подробность в пояснение!)
:lol:

Здесь все не понимают, что когда один писал пост, он не обновлял страницу ветки и не видел, что кто-то в этот момент уже успел отправить пост, отвечающий топикстартеру? :)

We don't say so. We say like this:
Большое спасибо, Оля

Ладно! :lol:
Всякое бывает!

Зимою is poetic for Зимой.

No, I am no a poet, thank you for asking. I hate poetry.

Oooooookaaaaaaaaay.

Зимою - это архаично-поэтическая форма слова Зимой

You guys are all wrong.

зимою is an archaic instrumental case for femenine nouns.

compare: со мною - со мной

It makes it more poetic

That's what everyone has been saying.

IN UKRAINIAN it is the standard instrumental ending:

Я говорю українською мовою.

Зимойу - ета аркаично-паетичискайа фойййрма сйлйова зе-мои?

А-а-а!.. Саучазьнег! Превед!..

Тёма! Чё такое зимою??

На вопрос-то человеку уже ответить надо бы!

До вас долго доходит! :?

ЗИМОЮ = During the winter

To be more precise, in Old English it is "an winter", if my memory serves me. Prepositional bonds, you know. And it also must be some inflexion, but I don't really remember this one.

TATY, how can you be serious in such circumstances? Don't you see nobody including kalinka is listening to each other here? Everyone is jabbering. Somebody is drunk, somebody is insane, Бармалей курит грибы etc. :lol:

Don't worry, Vadik, TATY only listens to himself anyway! :lol: :P

It's an interesting obseravation.

I'm extremely good at obseravating.

I'm good at SERVING people.

Serve me a table.

Do you know what SERVING means in basurero's language? :lol: If not, check the Watching Sin City thread :wink:

I am much better at obseravatating. And when it comes to obseraravatating, my neighbor is the best

Yes!! Indeed!

And зимою means зимой.

I was drunk when I wrote that.

O RLY?

Guys, just answer the OP's question!

зимою is the instrumental case of зимой in its archaic-poetical form! Jesus, why doesn't anyone actually HELP the guy?

Well said KV!

by the way зимой=зимою here

And why didn't Kirschtorte thank me? Wasn't my answer helpful enough? :(
Next time I shall think twice before helping Kirschtorte! :|

зимою = зимой = during the summer, in (the) summer :)

No. It's during the Spring. Spring is my favourite. http://ramil.kicks-ass.org/smileys/tease.gif

I have a spring with a spring constant of 634.2Nm-1. I love him.

Is that a MALE spring? How do you call him?

I call him "Potent". He's damn smooth.

Quite a good name for a man :)

Is it a good name for a Spring too?
