[neonixie-l] Re: IV-1 datasheet English translation

[Paul Andrews]

I 'paraphrased' much of the literal translation e.g. 'Max' instead of 'not 
greater'. The translator completely failed to translate Накала, though it gave 
the Roman alphabet equivalent of Nacala. From the context it was fairly clear 
that it is the filament, which I translated as heater. 'Incandescent' was the 
closest I could get at the time, though I am seeing things like накаливания 
being translated as both 'filament lamp' and 'incandescent bulb'.

If you've used it, that is good. Google Translate can be a bit hit-or-miss 
- for example, it renders ЗНАКОСИНТЕЗИРУЮЩИЕ as "mind-synthesizing" instead 
of "character-generating" (technically, "character synthesizing" when used 
without the context) which is a bit humorous... This may be because the 
corpus it was trained on was mostly psychology books.
