Radek Zelenka/David Nykl Appreciation, Thunk, Translation Thread

[ShadowMaat]

Hey gang! Remember how you guys helped me with some translations for a fic a while back? Maybe quite a while, now...

Anyway, I've put the first part up on my website. Again, Radek isn't really one of the main characters, but he's part of the team and I'd really appreciate any feedback on how I've handled him thus far (or how I've handled ANY of them). And naturally, if anyone has suggestions for improvement, I'm certainly happy to listen.

newbie here

EPISODE 116-
he said: "Jezisi, ja s tema hercema nemuzu delat!!!"

which means "Oh My God, I cant work with those actors!!!"

ha! That's hilarious! Hey if I read into it carefully, it almost looks like Russian. The word for the actors is different though.
ja-I
s-s
tema-those
nemuzu-can't
delat-work
am I right??

You're, russian is slavic language too. But czech is little more complicated. It has declension and 7 cases (I hope that are right words in english...). So infinitive is diferend.

Like:
Work (verb) - pracovat
I'm working - pracuji
You're working - pracuješ
He, she, it works - pracuje

Word "delat" is more like "do". But in common czech we use "do" for "work"...

I hope you understand what I mean... )

Or try czech-english dictionary here: slovniky.centrum.cz

yea I know that delat' is do.. it's same in Russian. I just figured you translated it as work so it would make sense to english people

I couldn't understand Zelenka in the movie, but I can understand some stuff when I read Czech. *na dne more* for example is the same except that in Russian case, it would be "morya"
I think you have a lating alphabet though.. we have cyrillic.

Я не понимаю Зеленку в фильме, но понимаю когда читаю . haha I forgot how to say Czech in Russian

Uh, I wouldn't say that you're from Russia... Your english is great... )

Yeah, we have latin alphabet, but my friend is from Russia so he teachs me cyrillic alphabet, but I have no idea what did you wrote, though... ) (except Зеленку is Zelenka I think... ))

Hehe thanks I was born and lived in Russia for 14 years. Now I'm in US for 5 years.
