English and Russian science Last week was a scandal in Russia, when it was found that in the English version of a web-site of the Russian Academy of Science the Institute of protein (Институт белка) was named as a Squirrel institute. The mistake was made because of use of automatic translator. The Russian word "белок" (protein) in the form "родительский падеж" (like "of the") is similar to the word "белка", which means "squirrel". So, you should know: 1. words "белок", "белка" with accent on the last syllable means "protein", "of the protein". 2. words "белка", "белки" with accent on the first syllable means "squirrel", of the squirrel"
