Talk:стекать

Implicit "down"?

Can this word not be used for flow "up" or flow "along"? 78.32.74.28 17:25, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

No, the base verb is текать. The prefix с- means down from, down off of. Down is not implicit, it is explicit. —Stephen 17:35, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

flow up can be translated as "втекать", "затекать"; flow along - "протекать", "течь". --Jaroslavleff 06:32, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
