Didn't know his name was Muhammad.

Didn't know his name was Muhammad.

Magomed is just a Russian translation of Muhammad

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Someone should tell Ankalaev's agent what weight class Leech is in.

 

[loisestrad]

Magomed is just a Russian translation of Muhammad

You don't "translate" names.

 

[LBNose]

You don't "translate" names.

Of course you do

Khabib even pronounces his own last name as Nur - Muhammad, not Nur - Magomed

 

[93confirmed]

Strange callout. Why?

 

[loisestrad]

Of course you do

Khabib even pronounces his own last name as Nur - Muhammad, not Nur - Magomed

It's all cool, LBNæse.

 

[Just Creed]

Ank is taking the crazy horse approach to fighting: women, retarded, welterweights, I'll fight anyone

 

[LBNose]

It's all cool, LBNæse.

Glad you agree, læisestrad

You don't "translate" names.

Right

 

[KillerIsBack V2]

You don't "translate" names.

It’s actually complicated… as somebody who studied and worked in relevant fields on the matter…
All the guys replying to u are over-simplifying it with naked examples.
Wetherit is translitiration or translating or just mere pronunciation, there’s too many factors to consider as it depends on the situation.

If You think what Khamzat did to Leech was bad, can you imagine what Magomed would do to him

 

[Reign009]

Lol random af.

Li Jingliang doesn't talk about you because you're in a different weight class. Does he have him confused with someone else?

 

[loisestrad]

Right

Sure, names of famous culturally important figures (or places, cities etc) has been "translated" or rather taken over. To make those names or figures fit in to your culture and way of speaking.

Normally it's a sign of respect if you're calling a contemporary someone by his/ her name. And a sign of disrespect if you aren't.
