Subject: Another call to the site administration to restore the smooth, tested, old data entry system gen.
As we have to endure the new (improved?) English-language interface requiring users to type in their passwords after each new addition, which is a pain in the rear, this is an example of its flaws: There is no "Informal" = "разг." category anymore, so to enter a new term users need to be looking for "Colloquial", which is okay, but not quite the same. However, here's the real kicker: "офиц." has been replaced with "Official expression", which is a total embarrassment, instead of "Formal". Once again, we're calling out to all veteran users to support our request for the administration to restore the old Russian-language database that worked just great. Why fix it if it ain't broke??

Как мы вынуждены терпеть нового (? Улучшенный) английский язык интерфейса требуя от пользователей ввести свои пароли после каждого нового дополнения, которое является боль в задней части, это пример его недостатки: Существует нет "неофициальные" = "разг." категория больше, так, чтобы ввести новый термин пользователям нужно будет искать "Разговорный", который является хорошо, но не совсем то же самое. Тем не менее, вот реальный футболист: "офиц." была заменена на "Официальный выражение", которое является общим смущением, а не "формальным". Еще раз, мы кричали, чтобы все ветераны пользователям поддерживать нашу просьбу администрации для восстановления старого русского языка базы данных, которые работали просто великолепно. Почему это исправить, если оно не сломалось?

ART сам не понял, что сказал. А похоже наш человек, только о многом забыл.

To Serg_2012: I posted a message in English, this is my native tongue, so if the machine translation looks weird to you, it's not my fault, buddy. Maybe you should read the original version to get what I was talking about.

ART, what's your question then?

To kale:
We all here enjoy adding new pairs to the database, however, personally, I have a number of issues with the new system:
1) Choosing a specific category (e.g., slang) still places a new entry into "gener."
2) Examples of usage (in the comments field) are not displayed, it's a real shame.
3) A number of gross inconsistencies in the list of categories ("official" is just one example).
4) Having to re-enter the password every time one of us adds a new term is a pain in the rear, putting it nicely.
That's it for now.
Cheers

oh, i see. you hope to reach the admins this way
it might be more productive to email to the owner (pom@aha.ru) or to one of the moderators (alk@inbox.ru)

as for the language (or version?) of the interface, the russian IS available.
could it be that you switched to english inadvertently? if so, then you should be able to switch [back] to russian. to do so: sign out, delete browser cookies for multitran.ru, then sign back in - at that point it offers the choice of the interface language/version.
