Fedor is pronounced FYO-dor. What looks like an ‘e’ with two dots over it in Cyrillic is pronounced ‘yo’, short ‘o’.
As for what he was saying…I couldn’t quite make out the offscreen comment at 18 seconds, but it sounded sorta like ‘What the hell is that?’ in English.
The rest was pretty much straight cursing. “Get away, get away…fuck. Bitch, pederast…” and then “Hit the forehead, not the mouth, stop!..fuck.”
So mostly cursing, some fight instructions, then more cursing. Understandable.
Some of the cursing was a bit indistinct, but the feeling was there.
Umm… Well I think “bitch” would be a lot closer since “сука” means… well… “bitch”. As in both a disparaging term for a woman as well as a dog of the female persuasion.
To anybody wondering how to say “cunt” in Russian, I’m guessing “блядь” or “пизда” are the closest. Pronounced "blyad’ " and “pizda” respectively. Both literally an incredibly obscene and taboo term for the female genetalia or disparaging term for a person (of either sex, but the word is much stronger if used against women).
Note, however, that most Russian swear words are much stronger socially than their English counterparts. While I am yet to find an adult American who would not swear under any circumstances, there are plenty of Russians who live their entire lives without uttering a single swear word from Mat
Yup. In fact, this is why I couldn’t make out some of the words - I haven’t lived in Russia since I was 7 years old, and my knowledge of Russian is almost entirely based on what is said in a family, scientific, or news-program context. I just never learned how to swear properly. :smack:
