Thread: Выпуск 3

Как на английском лучше всего сказать "Выпуск третий"? Например, – третий выпуск сборника стихов.

Volume #3, не?

А это не выглядит как-то несерьёзно? Я видел Volume #1,2,3 только на компакт-дисках..

Does "third volume" not sound serious? I don't think so -- it's a perfectly normal way of saying something. Here's a very serious classic, which is issued in "volumes":

If it bothers you, you could also say "installment" or "edition". Though, with "edition" you have to be kind of careful, since it can mean both the next in the series or a reprinting. I.E.:
"I bought a first-edition Hemingway novel." (This is just the first printing of the book in question -- it's not a sequel or prequel).
vs.
"I bought the newest edition of X-Men." (This is one of a series of comic books).

Ок, всем спасибо
