Just a thought
In place of the untranslatable "Got Soviet?" I'm envisioning a black silhouette of Lenin in a famous pose with the Cyrillic word for "collect" (or aquire or hoard (or accumulate, conglomerate, gather, heap, pile (up).....) as if an edict from the man himself.
Anyone translate for me please?

I can't make the cyrillic letters yellow, ore evn any clearer. I have to search for an image with cyrillic in it and then doodle with it in photoshop.

OK. I've got it.
This is what the wording needs to translate into: " Workers Of The World Collect "!!! Get it? Now can someone translate that into Cyrillic for me sil vous plait? I even found Cyrillic fonts in Photoshop.

Пролетарии всех стран, соберите!
In this case, collect is like unite (gather). My russian is horrible so i dunno if collect as in collection means the same. |

"collect" thesaurus
Did a Babel Fish.
Input: collect, accumulate, conglomerate, gather, heap, pile up, aquire, hoard Output: соберите, аккумулируйте, конгломерат, gather, ворох, куча вверх, aquire, hoard PROMPT returns: Input: collect,accumulate, conglomerate, gather, heap, pile up, aquire, hoard Output: соберитесь, накопитесь, конгломерат, соберитесь, куча, накопитесь, aquire, запас Only one word translates the same: conglomerate=конгломерат. Which I doubt Comrade Lenin would have uttered in the first place. Help!

Well:
соберите=collect in babelfish соберитесь=collect/gather in PROMPT The former means to collect (possibly gather too) The latter means to be collected/gathered. The latter in context: Workers of the world, be collected/gathered! I dont think the workers of the world want to be collected or gathered. Last edited by willie777; 01-18-2007 at 08:12 PM. |
