Help with meaning "Russian - Translated"
Recently I have been seeing a lot of knitting pattern that have Russian - Translated in the title.Does this mean that the pattern has been translated into Russian, or that it is English translated from the Russian?
I don't know any Russian, so I don't want to accidentally buy a Russian knitting pattern.I don't want to assume. I would like to know as well and who is translating them because there's a lot of patterns that have the Russian version on this site but not the English. lol. It means the pattern was translated to Russian from another language, most commonly English.
I was wondering, too, so thanks for asking! the question is---- who translated this is it software translation or from a native speaker ?? static/image/common/user_online.gif greenteas static/image/common/clock.gif 2024-12-18 15:10

It can be both, sometimes it's just Russian speakers translation from an English pattern but often times it's just an online translator and not a very good one either.. In Russia there are many communities that are engaged in translating patterns from English into Russian and post these translations on their resources. Participants from Russia have a carload of such patterns. To earn coins they upload them here. The phrase Translation Russian means that the diagram is in Russian, translated from English.
The translation is usually literate, although occasionally it is automatic.
In Russia, as a rule, they know English very poorly, so the English versions are unpopular there and everyone is waiting for the patterns to be translated for them. The trouble with such patterns is that there are many errors in the description of the knitting steps. They may write a blind stitch instead of a single crochet stitch, or skip a row, or write the total amount of stitches incorrectly.
Therefore, even if it is not a problem for you to translate from Russian into English, it is better not to download them.It's better to look for the original. Omg great question, I was wondering the same.
