Thread: translations needed

can someone please tell me how to say the following words in russian:

to unfold
to drift (away)
bent, twisted, wrung
disappointing
disappointed

I looked the words up in an online dictionary.

to unfold
развёртывать/развернуть

to drift (away)
относить ветром

bent,
изогнутый

twisted,
кручёный

wrung
? maybe выжал


disappointing
disappointed

разочаровывать/разочаровать - to disappoint
я разочаровался - I was disappointed

*for disappointed/ing, i really need the words. i know how to say to be disappointed already but i'm not sure about the two words i'm looking for.

*about drift away, i guess, this concerns a boat or whatever (the wind thing). i'm looking for the figurative word.

*then, bent, wrung, twisted, i'd love to find a verb that could do it in the three examples (i'm not yet at the point where my vocabulary in russian is almost as extended as in english).

*when to fold is skladyvat', what is the opposite?

anyway, thanks a lot and what dictionary are you using?

disappointed - разочарованный
disappointing - разочаровывающий

расходиться (с кем-либо, чем-либо) - about interests, opinions, etc

*when to fold is skladyvat', what is the opposite?

раскладывать

for drift away could you also use уплавить, уплыть?

Drift away так же говорят про засыпающих или заснувших людей.

Я думал, что люди обычно говорят "drift off" про заснувших людей, но может быть, использование этого выражения зависит или от страны, или от того, кто говорит.

Уплавить - no such word
Уплыть - да, только наверно лучше "унести".
