Temat wiadomości: inch As though knew, but forgot -when they put two small strokes after a digit (e.g. 2"), does that mean inch? |

Thank you for "yup", but "huh" is neither answer, nor help. |

Open your eyes and behold then. АГА! |

os. but TM's "uh huh" is an answer:)(a beautifuly american answer) means yes/yup/yes sirrie bob/etc.... |
We-e-el, OK. Now I see - (But for "uh", "huh" they give smth quite different.) And now I see gogolesque's second response. |
uh-huh sounds like "Аха" по-русски meaning "ага", но не "угу". |
|

and "uh" - what we say when we dont know what to say and are thinking out loud or are really stupid "huh" = what? ah.. cave english. i love it! |
I checked the expression - the pronunciation is like ухУ, |
|

os im not so sure i like that pronunciation honestly, writing it in transliteration makes no sense... you just dont have the sound combinations for it in Russian |
nope, it's "ah-hAh". |
|

ага is ah-hah but uh-huh is still not transliteratable |
Weeeel! The transcription of uhuh is омега х Омега and so it's just bound to sound like ухУ. |

yeah, just like th sounds like t in transliteration (murder, its just plain murder) :) |
|
link 7.11.2005 11:33 |
but with transliteration we are also forced to murder your fabulous ы :) |
That's ok. There's no difference between us in understanding of the loss occurring with th and ы through translit. |
may the two strokes " also mean minutes? |
|

pupil i think so,if i remember correctly ' hours " minutes ''' seconds |
or is it "seconds"? |
'for minutes " for seconds |
used also in geographical coordinates (angle measurement) (degrees, minutes, seconds) |
again, only in terms of location (geographic coordinates), not time. |
