Hello, alexander!

Tuesday October 03 2017 18:26, from alexander koryagin -> Nil Alexandrov:

 >>> Can you write it?
 ak> Do you think "write" is unclear for the Englishmen? "Transcribe" is
 ak> somewhat a scientific word, IMHO. :)

"Can you write it down, please?" -- Would sound more naturally and less
scientific, although people nowadays are pretty well familiar with the tech
like CC (closed caption) and subtitles everywhere on TV.

 ak> I also spent a half an hour listening it. :) I sent my third version
 ak> in the previous message.

"If you plug your phone .." -- cannot hear "phone" here.
".. I mean charge after  -- cannot hear "mean".

 ak> IMHO, pure Russian phrases are more interesting for the foreigners.
 ak> After all this idiom is very clear, and a person understands easily
 ak> that a person has a poor musical ear if it was stepped by a heavy
 ak> bear.

In this context (of Russia and bears), you just support the cliche - bears,
vodka, balalaika :-)

Best Regards, Nil
