From what language are we translating this?

Frankly, your offer I barely understood. Google Translator is not the best helper in the translation. I think now you understand.

What? I wasn't going to use Google Translate. I asked what language, so that I could point you to people who could speak whatever language you requested. And if it was indeed French, I'd be able to speak it fine.

Before you shoot in the dark with accusations about what a person is going to do, why don't you actually READ what I wrote...

Sorry. It's all Google translator! My English is sooooo bad. You have already seen. And a translation from the Russian language. And, rather than translation, editing, which will translate the Google translator

Translation from Russian... Hm. I do know a Russian speaker here called @pit80, who at least has a basic command of English. There is also @Antiskill (?), I think, who previously put his location as Moscow.

Don't worry about earlier. It's okay.

Anyone else can recommend any Russian speakers around here who are at least on their way to being bilingual?

Yes google translate isn't the best because the translator doesn't take in account of sentence syntax and arrangement certain languages have. Take for example some of the youtube videos that translate those old USSR cartoons it's usually translated in a weird way where you can understand, but it's only translating the words and not arranging sentences right.

I think the best thing for you would be the writing forum! maybe toss the original text, then the ones resulted from google translate and someone can help you arrange it right so you don't lose the story because of the translation!

Hope that helps!
