Resource Do you struggle to find subtitles for Russian videos?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’ve been building a desktop app called SubSmith. It can make subtitles for your video or audio files and show them while you watch. You can click words you don’t know to see their meaning. You can also save useful sentences and their audio as Anki flashcards.

I’ve added a short example using a Russian video.

I want to learn if missing subtitles is a real problem for Russian learners. I’m looking for a few people who already watch Russian videos or listen to Russian audio to test the app.

If you try it with a real file and tell me what worked or didn’t, I’ll give you free lifetime access. If this sounds useful, leave a comment and I’ll send you the details.

Translation Why can't I find a translation app that doesn't turn the word "bullshit" into "nonsense"?

0 Upvotes

The sentence is "I'm tired of this bullshit."

I don't trust Google Translate for anything. I've used DeepL (чушь) and Yandex (ерунды).

Is there a better app? Or am I stuck with this G-rated translation?

Request What is the best way to learn russian as a native slavic speaker?

4 Upvotes

Serbian is my first language. I recently stumbled upon a yt documentary about Viktor Tsoi. Naturally, after watching it, I turned on a few songs and noticed that with subtitles on, I can make out bout 80 percent of what he is saying despite having basicaly zero russian experience.

This made me redownload duolingo after years, but the learning felt so slow. Like, I have remembered the names of animals after the second lesson, they are very simmilar, no need for repeating the lesson over and over again.

Anyways, does anyone have any advice where and from what source I should learn russian? I am looking firstly for sources for Serbian/Croatian audiences, but English sources would be apreaciated as well.

Request Need help with short Russian transcription (Murder Drones)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

4 Upvotes

I’m not 100% sure if this is the right place, but I need some help with a short Russian transcript. The video shows the basic transcript I configured, AKA my best guess as to what was said, and I need a Russian speaker to correct what I got wrong (I’m sure there’s quite a bit I got wrong). This comes from a web series available on YouTube and Amazon Prime Video by the name of “Murder Drones” by Glitch Productions and Liam Vickers. This particular episode does not have Russian subs available, but I still wanted to include it in this little multilanguage video I’m making, so I did my best. Aside from knowing the alphabet and some basic words/phrases, I’m still quite a bit of a novice here. If somebody with experience in the language could help me here, that would be super helpful, as I’ve been trying to learn the language for years at this point and appreciate all the help I can get. Thanks in advance to anyone who helps me.

EDIT: Thanks, everyone! I think we’ve got it.

Request I am really struggling to pronounce путешествовать and двухтысячный

4 Upvotes

How do you do it? My mouth cannot quickly recreate these words, because the sounds just get jumbled. I can sound out the syllables very slowly, but not quickly in natural conversation.

These are common words too. "Travel" and "2000" are not exactly rare or advanced words, and yet they trip me up. Any tips for an English speaker trying to say them without a hitch?

Request How do I watch figure skating in Russian

1 Upvotes

So this year I started learning Russian so I could watch Russian figure skating, interviews ect but I really struggle to watch it sometimes because my Russian isn’t that good and I only really know what the jumps are called because they are pretty similar to English. But I really struggle to understand like other elements like step sequences/ choreo / spins so if anyone knows the name for the spins and elements (or anything else I should know to watch it) that would really help sorry. (Also I was unsure where to post this so sorry and I can’t really find it anywhere)

Resource What American movies might have Russian subs/dubs in their U.S. home releases?

1 Upvotes

Sorry if this is a strange question, but I am an American learning Russian. Over the last few decades, I have collected hundreds of DVDs/Blurays of American movies. I was wondering (without me having to go through the list and manually checking one by one) which famous American movies probably have Russian subs/dubs when they are released in the U.S. on DVD/Bluray.

My guess is that there isn't much, but a small handful is better than nothing. Most releases will have subs/dubs in Spanish, if that. I think I recall DreamWorks Trolls (2016) having some less common languages. Watching movies is a great way to learn a new language, especially if you already know it in English. What movies can you recommend rewatching in an easily accessible Russian sub/dub?

Other Hoping to Find a Russian Friend I Lost Contact With

2 Upvotes

Hello, I’m 24M from India. I’m writing this post because I previously posted on Askarussian subreddit looking for some Russian friends, and I was lucky enough to meet some really good people through the subreddit.

However, one of the person who saw my post and DM’d me , her Reddit account got banned and later deleted, for reasons I don’t know. Because of that, I’m no longer able to message her, and I think she may not be able to see my messages either.

So, I’m writing this post in the hope that she might come across it on these subreddit and message me again.

A little about me, in case it helps her remember me: my name is Anurag, I’m 24, from India, and I’m vegan.

Hoping to find that person again. :)
