Do you know how to find videos where native English speaker translates (consecutive translation) native Russian speaker speaking Russian? Those videos are very valuable for us, Russian-speaking people, as they help us get rid of "Ruglish" and acquire the language the way native speakers speak it.

But those videos are very hard to find. I clearly know those videos exist (or at least existed - maybe they have been deleted since) but they are very hard to find. When I search for them o... See more
Do you know how to find videos where native English speaker translates (consecutive translation) native Russian speaker speaking Russian? Those videos are very valuable for us, Russian-speaking people, as they help us get rid of "Ruglish" and acquire the language the way native speakers speak it.

But those videos are very hard to find. I clearly know those videos exist (or at least existed - maybe they have been deleted since) but they are very hard to find. When I search for them on YouTube or Google what I get are endless videos of Russian-speaking bloggers teaching beginner-level Russian.

For example, I CLEARLY remember that in the videos covering Nikita Khrustchev visit to America there was a consecutive translation on the event in Los Angeles where Khrustschev clashed with the city mayor. I even remember the translation ("Вы меня хорошо угощали" => "Thank you for your wonderful hospitality!"). And yet for some reason they did a voiceover made by Russian native speaker in the documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpxsNqAYXB8&t=1504s .

The best I could find to illustrate what I am looking for is this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3WBUaCbQ0g8&t=2180s but even this is not it (still better than nothing).

Do you know how to find those videos? I am sure they exist but they are extremely difficult to find. ▲ Collapse
