He went through a year's training at the Army Language Institute and then had a job translating clandestine broadcasts. He's recently been refreshing his Russian through correspondence with someone in Russia and most of it has come back to him. Not that I know anything about it! Ref's may be the only phrase for all I know.:-) |

11 Jul 09 - 02:10 AM (#2677225) Subject: RE: Russian Translation for 'I love you From: Zhenya According to the Word translator it is "ya tebya lyoo-blyoo" That last one from George P. looks correct to me - I studied Russian for several years, although it's been quite awhile now. Like some other languages, Russian has different forms of the word "you" depending on the person(s) being addressed. "Tebya" would be the more familiar kind, and "vas" would be more formal, or it could also be plural, if I'm recalling that correctly. (Like tu and vous in French). I guess if you're telling somehone you love them, it would likely be someone close to you! The order of words shown by Ref is also technically correct, but I've usually heard it said the way George showed it. Literally, it would translate back as "I you love". But a Russian speaker would understand this meant "I love you" becase the word "you" is in the accusative case. The word would have a different form if it was the subject of the sentence and not the object. |

It appears that there are many translations. George and Paul are matching yet others are different it only for a simple song Im putting together. The comedian at work tried to convince me it was......... Pissonyer the silly sod. And started singing a daft song to go with it. Thank God for Mudcatters at least you get some sense out of them despite the confusion of several translations. Thanks again folks. Kind regards to all Pierre. |

My brother just called and gave this to me as the "intimate" form of "you" for this phrase. This is how it would sound: Yaw = I LublYU = Love which sounds like "looblYOO" TEByaw = you |

12 Jul 09 - 01:09 PM (#2678313) Subject: RE: Russian Translation for 'I love you From: Ref "Tih" or "teh" for the first syllable is an either/or. In speaking it, you just sort of hint at that without giving it any emphasis. On the other hand, my teacher was a Dutchman who was married to a Muscovite, so gawd only knows what kind of accent I was subjected to! |

12 Jul 09 - 02:27 PM (#2678404) Subject: RE: Russian Translation for 'I love you From: Artful Codger Ref: The accent is still on the second syllable. And when giving pronunciation for a language, it's customary to give "standard" pronunciation--as presented in tutoring materials--rather than dialect. In standard pronunciation, the first syllable is reduced, hence better rendered in English as "ih". |

17 Jul 09 - 02:20 PM (#2682352) Subject: RE: Russian Translation for 'I love you From: robomatic You can say: Ya (sounds similar to the German word for yes, rhymes with the Russian word Da which means yes) Teb-ya' (rhymes with Ya above, accent on the second syllable) lyu-blyu' (long vowel pronunciation, accent on the second syllable) Ya tebya lyublyu. Ya lyublyu tebya means the same thing. Russian, like many European languages but not English, changes word endings as the word is used, so you can pretty much scramble the words in a sentence of Russian and the meaning is not lost. Which brings me to the observation: You can also sing or say: "lyublyu tebya" (or tebya lyublyu") and leave out the 'ya' because the form of the word 'lyublyu' implies the 'ya' |

20 Jul 09 - 02:42 PM (#2683988) Subject: RE: Russian Translation for 'I love you From: Artful Codger robomatic: In some Slavic languages (like Czech), one would only supply the pronoun as an emphatic, but in Russian (especially with a declaration of this sort) it is not customary to omit the pronoun--and particularly not with a declaration of this sort, where informality would be inappropriate to the sentiment (unless you want it to come off like "Love ya" or "Gimme a beer".) |
