(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: Raka

I've come across a word in Russian that I can not translate for the life of me. I have tried every online translator and cannot find it in any dictionaries. So if someone could help me out it would be most appreciated. I have included all of the sentence but it is the last word I can not translate.

Это очень тежело

The first two words are " this is, the last word?

Thanks in advance.

I think it means "this is very funny, or amusing"..but I'm Texan. Better get some Russians in here to help.

Ýòî î÷åíü òåæåëî

Raka, there is wrong spelling in russian: "Ýòî î÷åíü òÅæåëî".

Ýòî î÷åíü òßæåëî.

Unfortunately, you took out of context this words. I guess that some versions here:
- She (he, they) feels miserable/wretched/unhappy;
- It is painful/hard for somebody;
- It is painful for her (him) to think about it;
- It is hard to bear;
- It is painful to see, hear, etc.;
- It is a painful/distressing sight;
- Her (his) heart is neavy.

Sorry guys! I was thinking it was spelled with a "she" and not a "zhe". Doesn't "Tyesheet" mean humorous? Maybe I should have studied harder in Russian class.

Hi, guys!
This word means “hard” or “difficult”, depends on a design of all phrase. Something like “This is very difficult”
You could not find it in dictionary because the word тяжело is spelt incorrectly. Second letter is suppose to be Я instead E
I am not a professional. I am just attempting to lean English. But I will be happy to help you with your translation

P.S. This website is the best resource of materials to study, especially slang

Ms Smarty Pants wins the prize. She guessed right. I'd forgotten all about this thread. That's what you get when your girl who has a Degree in teaching and Russian literature sends you an email. Thanks evryone for your help, it's appreciated.

Oh, and Ms Smarty Pants thanks for the help you provided last year. All is well and I get married next month in the Ukraine.
