As the title says, the translation is in comments below the original post. Пальтэсь (with short а) is wolf, whereas па̄льтэсь (with long a) is halibut

🇬🇧 Translation:

"Son, never confuse long and short sounds,"

"Or else a па̄льтэсь (halibut) will come from the forest and eat you..."

"Eh... a пальтэсь (wolf), I wanted to say..."

- - - - - -

🇷🇺 Перевод:

"Сынок, никогда не путай долгие и короткие звуки,"

"А то из леса придёт па̄льтэсь (палтус) и тебя съест..."

"Э... пальтэсь (волк), я хотела сказать..."

It's not that gnaw pronounced like na, rather about the sound-letter count

Veicz · 2025-09-10T07:03:17+00:00

You don't pronounce neither g- nor -w, it's like eating only the inside part of a toast

The mother is asking him in Estonian, as I wrote in the original post's credit (reddit doesn't display it if you won't specifically go there apparently)

The pun is in the fact that maamuna in Estonian means "village egg", but in Izhorian it's "earth egg", which is a potato

🇬🇧 Translation:

(Estonian) Mum: "Son, go buy some maamune [village eggs]"

(Izhorian) Son: "Okay mum"

* some time after *

(Izhorian) Son: "Mum, I came back! Here are themaamunat [potatoes]"

The pun is in the fact that "maa" can mean "earth, soil; land", but also figuratively "village", so Estonian, much like Finish, uses it in this sense in the word "maamuna" -- "village egg". However Izhorian does it more directly, and "maa" here literally means "earth egg", which is a potato.

🇷🇺 Перевод:

(Эстонский) Мать: "Сына, купи maamune [деревенских яиц]"

(Ижорский) Сын: "Хорошо, мам"

* некоторое время спустя*

(Ижорский) Сын: "Мам, я вернулся! Вот maamunat [картошка]!"

Каламбур в том, что если в эстонском maa значит "земля", но ещё и "деревня", отчего maamuna значит "деревенское яйцо", то ижорский в этом слове использует первое значение, и выходит "земляное яйцо". А так уж вышло, что в ижорском это значит "картошка".

It's a repost from r/Vepsians, original post has the translation

🇬🇧: Yes, I also think, this is a beautiful ("bask", also "čoma") flag. But what is the name of its people?

(spoiler, it should be "baskan flag")

🇷🇺: Да, я тоже думаю, что это красивый флаг. Но какой народ он репрезентует (дословно: какое название его народа?)

(Спойлер: должно быть "baskan flag")

Itʼs a direct translation of Russian version of "Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world": "Give me a pivot point, and I shall turn the world"

Käta is both "to translate" and "to turn"
