Why? Because.

A great site is Google Translator for the Cyrillic and Romanization. An added bonus: it's not too polite to translate swear words. If Google Translator can't come through for you, try working here (in shiny blue!): English Online Translator and TTS.

The syllable in bold italic is the syllable stressed.


Season One: Foundations

  1. Da svidaniya, Kapitan
    1. До свидания, Капитан = Goodbye, Captain = Da s'vidahnya, Kapitahn or Da svidaniya Kapitan (my spelling, using my own version of transliteration.)
    2. пойдите с Богом = Go with God = Poydeetyeh s' bohgum or Poidityeh s’bohgum (my spelling)
  2. Paths Not Taken
    1. (Sorry, I don't have the Cyrillic) = Holy Fuck; Fuck (in) the mouth = Yehbanee v' roht or Yebani v'rot (my spelling) Oh, the joys of http://www.insultmonger.com NSFW!!! You have been warned! This site is truly filthy and unfortunately does not offer the Cyrillic, making it hard to backcheck the transliterations. Yebani v'rot!.
  3. Coming Clean
    1. только немного = Just a little = tolkah nyeemnogah or tolka nyimnoga (my spelling)
  4. Witness
    1. Бог, быть с Вами = God be with you = Bohk beets vahmeeyah or Bokh bit s'vamieh (my spelling)
  5. Broken
    1. (Sorry, I don't have the Cyrillic) = Fuck head = Yebanat (another one from http://www.insultmonger.com NSFW!!! You have been warned!) For more on this lovely little word and its variants, go here: http://www.russki-mat.net/e/Russian.htm and click on the word ебать in the paragraph for the variations of "mat' ", below the abbreviations key. (russki-mat.net pages SFW)
  6. Devil His Due
    1. дерьмо = Shit = Dyermah or (as I like to spell it) "Dierma"



Season Two: Hitting Our Stride

  1. Naissance
    1. вверните Вас = Screw you! = Vyerneetyeh vahs! or Viernityeh vas! (my spelling)
    2. конечно = certainly = Kohnyeshna
    3. Говорим по-русски? = speak Russian? = Gavarim pah-Roosski? (Shortened to just: pah-Russki?)
    4. Немного = A little = Nyeemnogah, or "Nyimnoga" (my spelling)
    5. только минута = just a minute = tolkah minoottah or tolka minuta (my spelling)
    6. Вы серьезный? = you serious? = v’seriozni?
    7. Серьезно! = seriously! = seriozna
    8. Не за что = Don't mention it! = Nee zah shtoh or Ni za'shto (my spelling and it's actually lit. tr. = There is nothing.)
  2. Baklava
    1. (N/A) = Little slut = shlee-yoosh-kah or shliushka (not my spelling but from our favorite Cyrillic-ommiting NSFW!!! website, www.insultmonger.com. What can I say? It's got a great selection of kick-ass zingers--Maer)
