Hello, Mike!

Amazing!


And if I may say something about English - I was amazed by the enormous amount
of terms used to describe different sea regions. We have almost zero analogues
in Russian - the British were in fact great sailors:

Trade Winds
Roaring Forties
Furious Fifties
Screaming Sixties
Horse Latitudes
Doldrums
Westerlies
etc.

Or the classical:

The sun is over the yardarm.

My favorite ;)

Nothing even close exists in the Russian language.

Best regards,
             dp.
