Doesn't something get lost in the translation? I've talked to folks fluent in Russian and they say there is a lot in the original language that doesn't translate well. Even with folks speaking the same language this applies. Peter Jennings hears "Let's Roll!" and translates it into Canadian as "Let Us Roll." Just not the same thing.
