Subject: Гульчачак Ъ-Ханнанова, Уфа; Анна Ъ-Дорофеева If you are translating an article and the authors (at the end of it) are listed like this:Гульчачак Ъ-Ханнанова, Уфа; Анна Ъ-Дорофеева What is this Ъ supposed to be? Thanks! |
| это фишка журналистов Коммерсанта, не переводится имхо |
| but what is it? what purpose does it serve? |
| Ъ stands for KommersantЪ (Russian pre-revolution grammar) as its name was written approximately until 2002. Now it's just a kind of trademark. |
| понт |
| And it means that both Hannanova and Dorofeeva work for Kommersant |
|
afaik (i may be mistaken though), this is a part of the Kommersant brand (the paper is often referred to as "Ъ"), as they prefered a spelling with Ъ (old pre-Bolshevik spelling rules) До реформы русского правописания в 1917—1918 гг.... достаточно бесполезный Ъ в конце слов занимал примерно 4 % объёма текста и, по подсчётам Л. В. Успенского, до реформы правописания на него ежегодно уходило около 8,5 млн лишних страниц http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ъ_(кириллица) |

суслик - микрософтовский движок не умеет включать закрывающую скобку ) внутрь линка, поэтому чтобы линки работали правильно в случае с Википедией лучше оформлять их по правилам html, а не просто вставив на странице. Как сделать? Вставляем на страницу саму ссылку, после этого обрамляем ее такими тегами: перед ссылкой печатаем: <a href=" после ссылки печатаем: ">Ъ (кириллица)</a> Итого получаем (см. как выглядит гиперлинк) Ъ (кириллица) |

thanks guys for both versions :) |

Suslik By the by, as a Historian, you can bet i know about the hard sign and its "ostraciz-ation". And you can trust that I love finding books which have them (after every bloody word) and that I spend far too much money to then buy them and gaze at them with what I call Historian's Envy. :))) |
| спасибо за камент, alk)) |
| Nina, O RLY? do you have an eye for antique books? Aren't they hard to read? |
| btw, Kommersant used to issue some of its dailies (i guess) in loo rolls;) they even secretly appeared in WCs of Duma) |
|
Suslik Of course I do. Hard to read: for a foreigner they are a b****, but I love them. |
|
2 суслик btw there is no evidence that was Kommersant and not his competitors or haters |
| This was supposed to be a smear campaign by Nashi movement. |
| oh i c... |
