А в чем проблема с Никольским собором? А Тсарс[буква, которой вообще нет в русском языке] - это не "царский" случайно? |

Who told you that is not translate? St.Nicolas the Miracle-Worker Cathedral aka St. Nicolas Cathedral that is to say Собор Святого Николая Чудотворца ака Никольский Собор. Actually Nikolsky it's a common name. |

**(why the second part of the name is not translated?)** if you mean the -sky "part of the word" ---- you're right that it bears the same function as does -sky in the word "TSARSKY" ---- that is, -sky is a suffix (in this case, sing., masc.) that imparts broadly the same meaning as the English suffix -(a)n (as in Moldov-an, Morocc-an, etc.) |
