In Reply to: I disqualify the Ukranian girl right away - what would she know about Russia? posted by Victor Khomenko on December 6, 2003 at 09:07:10:
Victor,Nice of you to continue to show your interest.
The Vladivostok college-aged woman chose: Mother Russia.
The Ukrainian college-aged woman chose: Motherland.Does that fit?
I, myself, didn't use (didn't *know*) any Russian for either term.
That's an important point. They could have been translating the two
terms *differently* BUT they were foreign language students so
I suspect they were using the more correct Russian for my English
-language concepts.A second question: who do you believe should be translating, for
example, a Russian writer like Tolstoy into English: a born-and-
raised Russian student of English OR a non-Russian student of Russian?Thanks for this extended dialogue.
