Hi everybody,
I'm translating an essay from R to E.
And there is one difficult sentence with which i really need your help.
My native language is R. I was looking for ideas on different russian forums, but was not satisfied.
So the sentence is:
В тебе странным образом уживаются абсолютное безразличие к своему внешнему виду, даже нечистоплотность в будние дни и какое-то купеческое -напоказ-франтовство в праздники.
(нечистоплотность - grubbiness)
The main idea is that there are two contradictory features in one person - from one side it is untidiness, from the other - dandyism...
Looking forward for your options.
Thanks.
