[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Russian translation assistance?

Posted: 8/30/2004 10:38:40 AM EDT

Hi all!

I need assistance in translating a letter written to me in Russian/Cyrillic.

Currently, it's an 8mb TIFF, but I can most definitely convert it to something smaller, without a major loss in resolution.

I can make out a few words in it (my name, the "Da" and "Russia"), but that's about it.

If you can help, please let me know where to email the document to!

Thank you!!

There are a few web translators if you can get it to a .txt type document. Not the greatest, but you will get the basic idea.

I would offer my wife to do it, but it takes her along time and she hates it.

Yeah, I tried to OCR it so I could dump it to Babelfish, but with no luck - it's in cursive, and the OCR doesn't pick it up well.

=(

you can send it to me. 8mb is a little big though...

We've got a Russian woman in our office- she imported herself about 10 years ago. we've also got a guy who's philipino, a woman who is czech, one that is italian, and we've got a macedonian here for the summer. they were all born and spent much of their lives in their respective countries of birth.

OK.... here is the translation....

Hi Kythri!

You big Yankee stud monkey. Thank you for your interest in the mail order Russian bride network. Presently we have many disease free (sorta) women in stock. Although your request was a rather strange one (6ft tall red headed chinese girl, wearing cowboy chaps) we will be happy to work with you in this matter. Have your banking account info handy when you call, remember it is $2.50 (U.S.) per minute for sex talk.

Warmest Regards,
Earnestine Borgnineovich
