1. 'The Bashkir woman' makes me think that it's one particular woman. Does 'Башкирская женщина' here mean 'Bashkir women generally', or does it refer to just one woman? If it's the former, I would consider using poetic licence and putting all of this into the plural: 'Bashkir women “make up the patterns in their heads”, “they are eternal, tireless workers, the guardians of the art and beauty of their people”......' 2. Minor point: titles of books/publications shouldn't be in double quotation marks. You have a choice of three styles in English: No punctuation: There's no difference between these three; it just depends on which style you/your customer prefers. Double quotation marks are normally used only for quotations – things people have either said, or written in books/essays/publications etc, not their titles. |
