Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Russian Translation Thread

[Attila the Professor]

Irina: "Moyo zolotse" = "My precious" (Even though "gold" is the literal translation, it means something more like "precious" in this scene)

Heh, you sure it doesn't translate as "knowledge"?

 

[The Golden Idol]

Heh, you sure it doesn't translate as "knowledge"?

Hah! Funny.

 

[StoneTriple]

Speaking of translations - what's Russian for damn sexy?

 

[Texas]

What does Dovchenko say when his troops pick him up from the Rocket Sled?

Also, I think Dovchenko utters a line or two during the Russian camp scene in the jungle. What does he say here?

 

[Agent Z]

Hey Golden Idol, thanks so much! Here is the adjusted entry with new screencaps! Thanks for spotting those additional phrases! More bonus "davai"!

Chapter Two: "The Warehouse"

Dovchenko: "On hotchet moyi potroni" = "He wants my bullets!"

Irina: "Schivelitis!" = "Move!"

Irina: "Naydite!" = "Find it!"

Dovchenko: "Vse komne! Zavadite mashinu, schivelitis, bistro!" = "Everyone come to me! Rev up the car, move, fast!"

Soldiers: ""Taschite! Tak tochno! Davai, davai!" = " "Pull! Yes sir! Come on, come on!"

Soldiers: ""Ras, dva, tri!" = "One, two, three!"

Irina: "Nisite v machinu!" = "Take it to the car!"

Irina: "Dayte mne nozh" = "Hand me a knife."

Soldier: "Nozh, bistro!" = "A knife, quick!"

Irina: "Moyo zolotse" = "My precious" (Even though "gold" is the literal translation, it means something more like "precious" in this scene)

 

[Agent Z]

Agent Z, bring on the next chapter!

Chapter 3: "I Like Ike"

Irina: "Go cut him off!" (Going off the English dubbing done for the US Valentine's Day teaser)

Irina: I'm not sure about this one. Before Irina yells "He's not to get out of here alive! Block the exits!", she either yells a word, or a soldier's name? Not sure...

[The Golden Idol]

Chapter 3: "I Like Ike"

Irina: "Dagnat ivo!" = "Catch up to him!"
Yup, the English dub was wrong.

As Spalko gets into the car, various soldiers are yelling "Dagnat!" which means "Catch up [to him]!", "Davai!" and "Bistro!" ("fast!")

Irina: "Zhivo! ("Quickly!") He's not to get out of here alive! Block the exits!"

Soldier: "Tavarish commandir! Gde vi?" = "Comrade commander! Where are you?" Keep in mind this is only the first part of what the soldiers in the truck say, I couldn't tell what they said when they drove right up to Dovchenko.

Dovchenko: "Naydite Jonsa!" = "Find Jones!"

Soldier: "Bomba! Ona vsarvyotsa!" = "A bomb! I'll explode!"

 

[The Golden Idol]

Soldier: "Bomba! Ona vsarvyotsa!" = "A bomb! I'll explode!"

Sorry, I meant "A bomb! It'll explode!"

LOL @ how I originally wrote it!

 

[The Golden Idol]

Next chapter, Agent Z!

 

[Agent Z]

Sorry, I meant "A bomb! It'll explode!"

LOL @ how I originally wrote it!

I was wondering! *LOL*

Alright, great work! Man, so cool!

Okay, the adjusted:

Chapter 3: "I Like Ike"

Irina: "Dagnat ivo!" = "Catch up to him!"

Soldiers:: "Dagnat!" = "Catch up [to him]!" / "Davai!" and "Bistro!" = "fast!"

Irina: "Zhivo! = "Quickly!"

Soldier: "Tavarish commandir! Gde vi?" = "Comrade commander! Where are you?" (Keep in mind this is only the first part of what the soldiers in the truck say, I couldn't tell what they said when they drove right up to Dovchenko.)

Dovchenko: "Naydite Jonsa!" = "Find Jones!"

Soldier: "Bomba! Ona vsarvyotsa!" = "A bomb! It'll explode!"

Next chapter, Agent Z!

Soon! On the way!

 

[The Golden Idol]

Soon! On the way!

Come on, Z! Bring it!

 

[The Golden Idol]

Agent Z, when's the next chapter coming?

 

[Udvarnoky]

I think the identities of Andrew Divoff and Pavel Lychnikoff are confused in the opening scene. Great work, by the way!

Yes, and I knew better too! *sighs*

When the final posting is done, with all the chapters, that will be corrected. Thanks for spotting that!

Great work, by the way!

Thanks! The Golden Idol has proven to be a great resource! An appropriate username if there ever was one.

Agent Z, when's the next chapter coming?

Now!



Chapter 4: "Of Interest to the Bureau" Nothing

Okay, and now comes the nightmare that is Chapter 5, which consists of many, many (potentially) Russian phrases shouted during the chase that takes place between the KGB baddies and Mutt and Indy on the motorbike.

So, this is very inexact, but I'm going to post as many screencaps as I can, approximated to the areas where I think I hear Russian.

Expect lots of pictures of cars and some people who are in the foreground of the shout, but not speaking the actual Russian in the background.

Let's get this one going then....

Chapter 5: "Mutt Williams"

Haha, thanks!

Chapter 5: "Mutt Williams"

KGB: "Von ani! Davai! Davai bigi bistrey!" = "There they are! Come on! Come on, run faster!"


Right before Indy goes "Go, go, go, go, go!" a Russian agent taps the other one on the shoulder and says "Davai, davai!"

KGB: "Davai ishyo, blizhe, blizhe!" = "Come on, more, [move] closer, closer!"

KGB: "Durak!" = "Stupid!/Idiot!"

KGB: "Von on! Derzhi ivo!" = "There he is! Hold him!"

KGB: "Aaah!"

As the car backs up, they may have said something quick in Russian, but I couldn't catch it.

KGB: "Vot! Davai, davai, za nim! Sukin sin!" = "There! Come on, come on, after him! Son of a bi*ch!"

KGB: "On uhodit! Bistreye, bistreye!" = "He's getting away! Faster, faster!"

What's interesting about the above sentence is that it's incorrect in Russian. The agent says "uhodit", which means "walking away", when he should have said "uyezhaet", which means "driving/riding away" (I wrote it as "getting away" in the above translation). Also, the agent that says the above lines has a non-Russian accent that is evident only in the above lines, which is a bit weird.

KGB: "Svolotch! Kaziol!" = "Bastard! Goat! (to call someone a goat is an insult in Russia)"

KGB: "Mama daragaya!" = "Mommy dearest!"

KGB: "Davai za nim! Bezhim!" = "Come on, after him! Run!"

KGB: "Davai, nazad! Pashli!" = "Go back! Let's go!"


Ready for Chapter 6!

That's awesome!

Ready for Chapter 6!

I was surprised how quickly Chapter 5 was done! You are nothing short of Awesome on top of Incredible my friend. Amazon Warrior, Regina, and the other fine Spalkonians over at AgentSpalko.com wanted me to pass along their gratitude for all you have done!

Chapter 6 will be up later today!

Hey, no problem!

[nitzsche]

So basically, these Russian speaking parts are mostly just filler. The trouble I had with Spalko was Cate sounded like she was speaking something in English with a Russian accent when she was actually speaking Russian. I thought I was missing a lot of dialogue until I realized she was speaking Russian. In most cases, it is obvious - but there are moments where you think you should understand what Spalko is saying.

Thanks for this thread and for all the contributors for unlocking the translations!

A great quote to bring us to the interrogation theme of our next chapter too.....


Chapter 8: "Old Friends & Enemies"

Dovchenko: (There may be a Russian word before "professor"?)

Indy: "Nyet" = "In your face!"

Irina:


A surprisingly "easy" chapter, considering it mostly takes place in a Russian camp. There is some background Russian, such as when Indy and his captors exit the tent, but it would be tough to pick up on that dialogue, I'm sure.
