2020-21 Russian Ladies' Figure Skating

[nussnacker]

I did officially messed up with MY translation.

I feel like generally a lot of things coming from Russia get entirely misunderstood because of translation issues. I think russian as a language is super complex, there's such a variety of expressions and it is so rich with different phrases and words with multiple meanings, where sometimes someone doesn't mean to say anything bad, but with literal translation is sounds bad, and on the opposite, it can be that something sounds ok translated, but russian speaker would be able to tell that person meant to throw shade. Like the phrase 'her Zagitova' sounds normal and I can't explain why it's shady, but a Russian would be immediately able to tell that it wasn't meant it a good way.
I personally just find it amazing

Huh really? Now I'm curious.

During one of the broadcasts TAT commented on Eteri's absence at that particular competition, saying that she most probably was "training HER Zagitova"; and you could feel the hatred she felt for both of them through the screen. So #свояЗагитова (herZagitova) immediately became a slogan for all Zagistan and was displayed on a banner during next competition where Alina was participating.

Ah I get it, like she was implying Eteri outright favours Alina?

 

[Scott512]

of course you should, but he said he was not.
"The news did not unsettle us, of course"

Hopefully he was just trying to say he stayed calm and skated like he normally would and not that he doesn't care about the girls.

After Zhenja Corona news i am not sure that Anna has pneumonia and not also Covid!

Please only a cold for Anya not pneumonia and covid. that would be a double whammy the hard way for this girl. I think if you have a stuffed up nose had a head cold and you have to figure skate for 3 minutes short program in 4 minute long program that's asking a lot if you're not feeling well and breathing well.

No, not that... it just sounds mean somehow. "She's probably training Alina" would sound normal, but "She's training her Zagitova" sounds off, because of the added pronoun. It's complex... that's all I can say It's hard to explain, but you can just tell it doesn't sound nice, there's an added tone of disdain because of that turn of a phrase.

in italian to if you add it that way it would mean she's the favorite

 

[Skatesocs]

I personally believe that all the Eteri fans and the Plushy fans and Mishin fans should unite to take down the common enemy: Tatiana Tarasova.

If a wave of hate of "Sasha is so done" starts now I am ready to fight.

Pigs have flown, this entire year is cursed, I am resigning from being an FS fan and will go to live in a cave somewhere.

[TripleAxelQueens3]

well... okay... i guess Rostelecom judges really said no to reputation scoring.

 

[Novalis]

St. Petersburg beat Moscow here

 

[nussnacker]

Poor Sasha! She probably wasn't feeling well, something must've happened in the background...
Hope she'll get over this bad day quickly and return with vengeance at RusNats.
