Usage examples of "Вердене" in Russian with translation to English

<>
Translations: all2 verdun2
Второе поколение войн – их пик пришелся на Первую мировою войну – зависело от большого количества огневой мощи. Их суть выражена фразой, сказанной, как предполагается, во время битвы при Вердене в 1916 году: «артиллерия разрушает, пехота занимает». The second, which culminated in World War I, was driven by massed firepower, and is expressed in the saying, reportedly coined at the Battle of Verdun in 1916, “artillery conquers, infantry occupies.”
Какие Форсайты, какие Тибо и Ругон-Маккары, какие даже Болконские и Ростовы вообще мыслимы после Вердена, Освенцима и Хиросимы? What Forsytes, what Thibaults, or Rougon-Macquarts, or even Bolkonskys or Rostovs are even conceivable after Verdun, Auschwitz, or Hiroshima?

What is translation in context on PROMT.One

The “Contexts” section on PROMT.One is your translation-in-context tool that helps you find real examples of how words and phrases are used. Just enter a word and the service will show its translation in context — sentences from bilingual sources where this word is used together with its translation into the target language. This helps you understand subtle shades of meaning and correct usage in speech, whether it is a rare term or a common everyday phrase.

Millions of usage examples from real texts

Millions of translation examples are collected automatically from already translated texts: documents, websites, books, movie dialogues and more. Thanks to this, you can see a word in different situations — from formal business style to everyday colloquial speech. For convenience, the results can be filtered by a specific translation or topic, and you can also search within the examples found to quickly focus on the context you need.

How translation in context helps you learn a language
