A free translation website for Russian Cyrillic and internet Cyrillic to
English. Some children email letters and these can be translated from internet
Cyrillic to English here. But beware the translation machines make no allowances
for homonyms. For example the Russian word zamok means both a castle and a
padlock. So your letter translated might read ‘ I especially liked the visit to
the old-time padlock rather than 'to the ancient castle'!’
