Well, the French can't.Цитата: RawonaM от января 25, 2006, 20:00I wonder how the word, if borrowed, would adapt to Chinese or Japanese .
The best part is to hear the word sputnik pronounced as [ˈspʌtnɪk].
I've read that the words are borrowed into Chinese but not really very often. So one of the Russian words taken by Chinese was "большевик" and it became "buershiweike" or "рубль" which became "lubu''.

Speaking of "buershiweike"... Does the Chinese language have an "L" sound? Because some Chinese can't pronounce it. I was in a Chinese restaurant a while back and ordered a sprite from the waitress, and she said that "we have srice". It took me a few seconds to realize that she was saying "slice" (a drink similar to sprite). .

So this word is in use, not just an entry in the dictionary?
IThe Russian one looks like a Santa Clause but for some reason had the sign "Babushka" over its head.

Цитата: Смайлик от января 27, 2006, 06:14So this word is in use, not just an entry in the dictionary? By the way I came across it in one novel, but it was the first time I saw this word in fiction. I can even provide the phrase: "On that day her mother exchanged the babushka for the black hat with the large hatpin" (J.Susann "Once Is Not Enough").
they do pronounce "babushka" although with the stress on the "u".
Цитата: f19 от февраля 12, 2006, 17:52There was a link somewhere on the forum. You should apply ""search".
...And the last one. Can anybody share a link on a list of language groups with subdivision or just post it here? I mean, what i need is the full list of Indo-European, Paleo-Asiatic and others groups.
Thanks.
