Title	Tatiana's Table
Text Submitted by stefaniasha	Source language: English Many years have passed since that time Tatiana made lazy cabbage for Alexander. Yet it was still vivid in her mind: her grandmother's slightly hoarse quiet voice, the taking of the tram across the river, the waning afternoon, the ache in her limping, broken leg: but above all, the desire to make something for someone, for no other reason than to please him.

Title

La tavola di Tatiana

Target language: Italian

Sono passati molti anni da quella volta che Tatiana fece i cavoli al vapore per Alexander.

Tutto ancora era vivido nella sua mente: la voce calma leggermente roca di sua nonna, la fermata del tram al di lÃ del fiume, il finire del pomeriggio, il dolore del suo zoppicare, la gamba rotta: ma soprattutto, il desiderio di fare qualcosa per qualcuno, per nessun altra ragione che compiacerlo.

	anealin Number of messages: 35	lazy cabbage means a Russian (or Ukrainian) national dish (Ð»ÐµÐ½Ð¸Ð²Ñ‹Ðµ Ð³Ð¾Ð»ÑƒÐ±Ñ†Ñ‹ - lenivye golubtsy). It consists of stewed (braised) cabbage usually together with rice and tomato juice (sometimes with carrot). The equivalent of Stewed cabbage with rice in Italian I guess would be an appropriate variant. Or just "lenivye golubtsy" - that would emphasize the national connotation together with the Russian names. Of course with the asteriks sigh and a footnote about caggage
