          Reading about things you already know is a fairly good way to pick up (some of) a language, if you ask me, so good luck

            I laughed at the thought these might be needed for those squat Tamiya bottles, then spilt a new bottle of TET that very night.............

                Have found out that there is OCR software which allows you to copy text from a scanned doc into word, so hopefully could then use google translate. It can only go wrong, big time lol

                    Have you got a tablet or smartphone? Then just install the Google Translate app — give it access to the camera and you can get a live translation by pointing it at the page, like this:

                    [ATTACH]397387[/ATTACH]

                    However, I found it works better if you take a picture of the page and then mark the text you want to translate with your finger, because the live translation takes each line as a separate bit of text while it sees marked text as all belonging together.

                              Jakko - thanks for the tip on the translator app. I have a book on T34's in Israel, written by a Russian living in Israel. Purchased the last copy direct from the author - he only had a Russian version left so this will be a big help

                              my purchasing borders on the insane so I only tend to post the odd one every now and again

                              Had an UM moment this week and these arrived yesterday
