I was hoping someone here could check my translation of this text? It's from "Teach Yourself Russian". Here's what was originally written:
<b>Киев - столица Украины. Это очень старый город, "Мать Русских городов". В Киеве живёт два миллиона человек. Киев очень красивый город. Туристы очень любят отдыхать в Киеве. Здесь есть парки, леса и сады, кемпинги, гостиницы, дома отдыха, исторические иархитектурные памятики.
Однако, Киев - не только тристический центр, но также административный, зкономический и культурный центр Украины. В Киеве находятся болшие заводы, где делают самолёты, телевизоры и мотоциклы.</b>
And here's how I translated it:
<b>Kiev is the capital of Ukraine. It is a very old city, and is [known as] "The Mother of Russian Cities". Two million people live in Kiev. Kiev is a very beautiful city. Tourists really like to rest in Kiev. Here there are parks, _____ (?) and gardens, camping sites, hotels, rest centers, and historical and architectural (?) monuments.
However, Kiev is not only a tourist center, but also the administrational, ______ (?) and cultural center of Ukraine. Situated in Kiev are large factories, where airplanes, televisions, and motorbikes are produced.</b>
Keep in mind, I'm merely a beginner. :)
My Russian is quite rusty, but let me try to help you out a bit.
лес is forest.
architectural seems correct.
зкономический is economical or something like that.
What is this "teach yourself russian" ?
X зкономический
O экономический
