Russian to German Translation
Russian languageRussian is mainly a phonetic language. The stress is mobile and does not follow strict rules. However, the stress in the
Russian language plays an important role in distinguish between otherwise identical words, especially when context doesn't make it obvious: замóк/зáмок (lock/castle), стóящий/стоя́щий (worthwhile/standing), молоде́ц/мо́лодец (attaboy/fine young man), узна́ю/узнаю́ (I shall learn it/I am recognizing it); and in expressing the meaning in the sentence (Ты́ съел печенье?/Ты съе́л печенье?/Ты съел пече́нье? – Was it you who ate the cookie?/Did you eat the cookie?/Was the cookie your meal?).
