куры фра
Russenorsk
editEtymology
editInherited from Norwegian Nynorsk kor i fra (“wherefrom”), northern dialectal form of kvar ifrå. The origin of "ы" is not clear, because per Norwegian pronunciation the /r/ sound before /i/ in this case is very close to Russian /rʲ/, which would result in spelling with letter "и" (кури фра).
Pronunciation
editPhrase
edit- where are you going to?
- who are you?
Usage notes
editDespite the translations given by Maximov and Shergin, the real meaning of the phase was probably "where are you from?"
