How do you translate parachute to Russian?
1 comments

“Parachute” is identical in Russian, because in both languages it came from French.
It was a trick question. Parent said you can translate anything to Russian. That's a rather uninteresting statement in practice given the parachute example. And there are entire kinds of such examples different in nature.
