Victor:

All right: let's look at the distinction between Knowing and Understanding.
Defined: the art of knowing means to have book knowledge of a subject
and knowledge of the facts available;the art of understanding
means *in addition* to have that 'first feel' where
NO EXPLANATION IS NECESSARY. Let's take you and your
R-u-s-s-i-a-n-e-s-s. You 'instinctively' understood that there
are two different Russian words for 'Mother Russia' or 'Motherland'
(I can't recall which term had the two different words). Now,
do you honestly expect a non-Russian 'Russian expert' to understand
that?? Forgetting competent translators for the moment, and answer
this question, please.

Thanks once again for your cooperation.
