Re: Afanasiya- is it legit? Russian; female; male form Afanasiy is in the database nt
in reply to a message by Kirke
Afanasiya looks like a very accurate Russian transliteration. To make something ending in "iy" feminine, a lot of the time what they'll do is drop the "y" and add "ya" (looks like a backwards R).-------------------------------------------------------
As I said before, I never repeat myself.
