Hi. What's up? Well, I tried to find the translation for that "bbl nohnmaete mehr"... it is certainly not Russian... doesn't sound like German either... so I don't know. About your project. Here is the translation for your "speech":
Privet, menya zovut Svetlana, mne shestnadtsat' let. U menya prokoloto zapyast'ye. Ya lyublyu igrat' v lakross, hodit' v torgovyy tsentr i obschat'sya s druz'yami. Ya lyublyu slushat' pank-muzyku i boltat' (this is not an actual word for "talk", it's slang) v as'ke (it's slang too).
That's basically it. Might seem a little hard to pronounce, but you can get used to it... kinda... Good luck! |

The phrase you can't understand is using Latin letters to look like cyrillic letters.
What they wanted that to look like is: Вы понимаете меня which means "do you understand me". I have no idea what context this is in, but that's what they wrote. It's Russian.
Katyara's translation was enough, but I would add that the word 'piercing' is a word oft used here now as well (what Katya wrote just sounds weird like, I have a poked-through wrist or something). I would say you can go with "U menya piercing v zapyastye."
Hope that helps |
