Subject: жизнь-же gen. Trying to translate a caricature caption:Эх жизнь-же ты солдата, знай коли родного брата. Depicts a soldier thrusting a bayonet towards a Russian citizen. Any help gratefully received as this is too colloquial for me. |
| коли - imperative of колоть. |
|
A possible descriptive translation: The life of a soldier really sucks, because, as a soldier, he has no choice but to kill (using the bayonet, although not necessarily) his own brother (his fellow-citizen) |
| Ah many thanks this makes sense. |

tobik, thrusting a bayonet towards a Russian citizen - политику не хАваем. Тебя бы самого шабером под ребрами пощекотать. |
