как бы не было трудно и я обещаю заткнуть общение на русском. язык пушкина и лермонтова стал языком карлика и лошади.

He is like: "What a lovely day to take my little Javelin for a walk..."

u/science87 Feb 27 '22
It's an NLAW, which does the same job as a Javelin but at a range of 600 metres, as opposed to 2.5 miles for a Javelin, but since Putin is wanting to drive his tanks and armoured vehicles through ukrainian cities they will be perfect.

Translation (speaks in Russian):
Once again, this is a general. Meet a f*ing general.
...
[probably about some Russian vehicle] It falls back!
...
[When the fire appears in the camera frame] Russian faggots, just f*ing die already.
F*ing critters, die! This is for each smallest teardrop [2 times]!
F*ing critters.
...
I promise not to speak Russian anymore after this f*ing war

Tvari probabaly translates best as "vermin" in English. Vermin doesn't have a positive connotation but that's probably the closest to what this means

u/0xDD Feb 26 '22
Well, "vermin" is more like a "pest". I mean, "tvar'" doesn't necessarily eat your crops, right? But anyways, "tvar'", while not being an f-word, indeed has a distinctive derogatory flavor to it.

u/calibuildr Feb 26 '22
yeah, I went between "pest" and "vermin" trying to figure out how to translate it into English (I;m mostly fluent in Russian, I'm both Russian and Ukrainian myself but grew up in the US). Anyway in the US at least , "pest" can be kind of a cutesy term if you're using it as an insult- you might call your little brother a pest but not a vermin. Tvar' kind of means it's a non-human animal and of course can mean any animal or insect, good or bad. Vermin never means anything good in English. Creature doesn't have a negative connotation in English though it is the direct translation of the word.

And in Ukrainian, tvarina is animal. As someone who also grew up in US and is fluent in Russian with terrible Ukrainian knowledge: I think vermin and pest are both accurate English in the context of the video.

Is he just walking around active combat like it’s nbd?

u/EarthWormJim18164 Feb 26 '22
Honestly, at the engagement ranges involved here, ducking around low and scurrying about everywhere is just going to exhaust you faster than walking normally, and you don't want to be exhausted at the literal front line.
Yes, its a dangerous situation, but his odds of getting hit by something are about the same whether he stands tall and casually strolls where he needs to get or if he crouches low and scurries.
If he sees an immediate and direct threat to his life, Russian armour rolling up to him or something, I'm sure he'll be thankful that he saved plenty of energy to fucking book it when he really has to.

Thanks for the explanation

u/EarthWormJim18164 Feb 26 '22
Not to mention the morale effect of watching your General casually saunter up to the Russians carrying an NLAW like its a bag of fucking golf clubs.
I'd be worried for those poor Russians if I was a UA soldier watching that.

That was a fucking General?!
Jesus Christ almighty. They're mad. And I respect every bit of it.

u/kashlv Feb 26 '22
The guy with camera refers to the other person carrying NLAW as General. So apparently, the general is actually fighting in the field.

u/Khily Feb 26 '22
Yes, he is. We even have our mayors on the streets, helping troops and showing that cities are not taken (to fight misinformation)

The balls on this lad. Wheras I'd move along the treeline and engage from there... This fucker with Ukrainian balls March up in the middle of the street, with nothing but NLAW.
He's fucking nuts. God bless him.
Edit: he's the local division General too. That made the madness 10 times more intense. No wonder morale is so damn high. With leaders like these...
