Hello, alexander !  
    
  Once (Tuesday December 21 2010) at 10:34 someone named alexander koryagin  
  wrote to James Bradley. So, look here:  
    
   JB>> Then it occurred to me, even a fast food outlet in N. America  
   JB>> (international?) professes that their sandwich makers are  
   JB>> "artists"  
   JB>> too. So, if authors are also artists; so are *we!*  
    
   ak> I think that the reason we have difficulties is that many words can be  
   ak> translated into Russian only partially. For instance "art." In English  
   ak> it has a wider meaning.  
    
  It seems to me that you'd better consider an ancient and quite literary  
  translation of the word "artist" to slavonic "ÇÇÇÇÇÇÇÇ", i.e. any  
  specialist in some specific kind of handycraft, e.g. making sandwiches. :-)
