It means I'm a French-speaking person myself, who doesn't speak a word of Russian (Babouchka?) and who's too lazy to translate the titles of the list he did for himself for the only purposes of a website.

I already answered that. That's a list I made two days ago. Too lazy to translate them, assuming people would recognize it anyway Just asking for opinions on the list itself, not on how its presented.

Tu n'as jamais dis ca.

C'est convenable, mais je dois recommander 'Un hero de notre temps' par Mikhail Lermontov.

C'est un court et classique roman.
