[Count von Phoib]

I'm trying to learn Russian trough various ways, and one of my ways of improving my pronounciation is by listening, with text, to songs of tatu and then reading the russian out aloud after that.

(Yes, tatu, as my pronounciation was denounced terrible and unintelligable, so drastic efforts are needed to get it good )

However, this piece of song got me puzzled for almost an hour... even with translation next to it!

So, I got a bit curious, how many here would be able to write down, in Latin alhpabet (what we write here) what she is saying? She is saying two things repeated; the second one is quite easy, the first one is difficult untill she repeats it at the end of the fragment.

The original English title was "All the things she said", however, this is not the title of the Russian song, which makes it very hard to find the lyrics.

Good luck!

wouldnt the english version have been a translation?

what about your russian friend?

[Count von Phoib]

No, the English version isn't the translation, thats the frustrating part.

And my russian friend said my russian was unintelligable, so...

And it's to practice how you pronounce it, not to understand what they say...

AFAIK, that song is not a translation from 'all the thing she said'. like the song 'not gonna get us' the title in russian is 'nas ne da gonat'.. something like that...

[IconOfEvi]

I wanna learn Japanese first...then maybe Russia

Didn't I mention that already?

And nobody even guessed? Come one, or should I start pointing Russians to this thread to see if anyone can solve it?

[maskawaih]

Phoib, i was refer to someone up above after yours.

[Acid]

I'm part Russian but i hardly know any of the language, i only know a few words and short sentences.

[trex238]

Being part of a ethnic background means nothing when learning a language. Hell, I'm part Chinese & I know more Russian than Chinese.

Do svidanya, tovarichi!

[Cylon Terrorist]

exactly works the other way around too

im all english but i can speak alot of spansh and i 've neva even bin to spain

[Shardukars]

Its really hard for me to learn japanese because I'm to dang lazy. Bytheway that song learning way is pretty good to learn pronounciation, and u might even pick up some words after a while ^^. Im korean but Im better at english than korean, (but that doesnt mean Im bad at korean!) 하하 한글을 영어보다는 쪼금 못하지 ..

Me and Silver Mobius need to steal you...

Oh I thought it was Das Vidnanya! Doesn't that mean good luck?

Anywas - Das Vidanya errr...Do svidanya comrade!

[trex238]

Do svidanya means until next time or until we'll meet again. I haven't heard of Das Vidanya but then again the guy I was learning from just dissappeared so I don't know too much.

[IconOfEvi]

OOoooh so it doesn't mean good luck? Well at least everytime I used it it could also be applied as We'll meet again
