: : : Мне приходилось слышать переводы Пушкина на укр яз. Ужасно, конечно.
: : : Но по-моему ещще ужаснее переводы Гоголя :-).

: : Poor Bodya :( Maybe the problem is that the Ukrainian translations just never have an opportunity to actually reach your brain (no doubt, an exceptionally small one, if any), since your reactions to anything Ukrainian are clearly dominated by the much faster spinal chord circuits.
: To Yanko: Please don't use English. With your vocabulary and intellect the best language to express yourself is really Ukrainian. It's people like you have brought shame to the whole country and its language.
There's always a better way than to insult other people's language, culture etc.
: If you want to be respected, respect others.
You say that when a few lines above you said "With your vocabulary and intellect the best language to express yourself is really Ukrainian."?
:Hopefully, people of Ukraine who love their country and the language are different from you.
Different in what way?
:Best wishes in your attempts to become a citizen of your country. Timothey.
