How well does french translate to Russian?
my local bookshop has got some old ,high quality, leather bound Translations of Anatole France's poetry as well as a few volumes of Stendhal and other French'eis that they are selling on the cheap.
for any bilingual people, how well does French, especially verse, translate to Russian?

Both are hard langages to learn, the best you can do if you really want to read French is to become billingual, else you won't understand the meaning of it by direct translation. It goes for every literacy.

the issue is that some languages translate better into each other then others.

fair enough but a french friend of mine tells me ,for example, that Shakespeare just doesn’t translate well into french at all.
hoping someone with experience could help.
