    What I meant was (Pseudo-Russian) slang, not pseudo-(Russian slang), i.e. the type of verbal expression that can hardly be associated with the Russian language because it is very distant in many ways from its grammatical and semantic tradition. It is closer to the pidgin of a caveman who accidentally picked up several words while being on display at a Russian zoo.
