Radio Backpack Tooltip

Радиоста́нция Р-107М
R-107M Radio Set
  • NOM Радиоста́нция · Dictionary радиоста́нция (fem., "radio set, radio station");
    Head noun, from ра́дио and ста́нция.
  • Р-107М is the set's Soviet designation: Р for радиоста́нция and М for модернизи́рованная ("modernised"). Read aloud as letters and numbers: эр-сто́-семь-э́м.
  • The game files this item under Рюкза́к ради́ста ("radio operator's backpack"), its radio-backpack slot. In Conflict, a deployed radio backpack becomes a spawn point for your side.
Ра́нцевая радиоста́нция со сре́дним ра́диусом де́йствия, испо́льзуемая сове́тской а́рмией для такти́ческих коммуника́ций на у́ровне батальо́на и ни́же
A mid-range manpack radio set, used by the Soviet army for tactical communications at battalion level and below.
  • NOM радиоста́нция · Dictionary радиоста́нция (fem., "radio set");
    Head noun of the whole description.
  • NOM Ра́нцевая ("manpack, carried on the back") · Agrees with радиоста́нция, nominative feminine. From ра́нец ("knapsack").
  • INS ра́диусом · Dictionary ра́диус (masc., "radius");
    After со ("with"), which takes the instrumental. Со is с with an added о before a consonant cluster, as in со сре́дним.
  • INS сре́дним ("medium") · Agrees with ра́диусом, instrumental masculine.
  • GEN де́йствия · Dictionary де́йствие (neut., "action");
    Genitive, modifying ра́диусом: ра́диус де́йствия, "radius of action", is the ordinary way to say a radio's range.
  • NOM испо́льзуемая ("used") · Present passive participle of испо́льзовать, agreeing with радиоста́нция.
  • INS а́рмией · Dictionary а́рмия (fem., "army");
    The agent of a passive participle goes in the instrumental: "used by the army".
  • INS сове́тской ("Soviet") · Agrees with а́рмией, instrumental feminine.
  • GEN коммуника́ций · Dictionary коммуника́ция (fem., "communication");
    Genitive plural after для ("for"), which always takes the genitive.
  • GEN такти́ческих ("tactical") · Agrees with коммуника́ций, genitive plural.
  • PREP у́ровне · Dictionary у́ровень (masc., "level");
    After на, prepositional: на у́ровне, "at the level (of)". The е of у́ровень drops out when an ending is added.
  • GEN батальо́на · Dictionary батальо́н (masc., "battalion");
    Genitive, modifying у́ровне.
  • The Russian text says батальо́н (battalion), while the game's English version of the same tooltip says company-level. The translation here follows the Russian.
Тре́буется припа́сов: 50
Supply cost: 50 (literally "Of supplies is required: 50")
  • тре́буется · Third person present of тре́боваться, the -ся form of тре́бовать ("to demand").
  • GEN припа́сов · Dictionary припа́с (masc., "supply, stock");
    Genitive plural, because it is counted by the number 50 (five and up take the genitive plural), placed before the colon.
  • Припа́сы (supplies) are Conflict's building and equipment currency, the same number shown on every build card.
Восемна́дцать с полови́ной килогра́ммов
18.5 kilograms (shown as 18.5 кг on the tooltip)
  • NOM Восемна́дцать · Dictionary восемна́дцать (numeral, "eighteen");
    The number, nominative. A cardinal of five and up governs the counted noun in the genitive plural.
  • GEN килогра́ммов · Dictionary килогра́мм (masc., "kilogram");
    Genitive plural, counted by восемна́дцать (five and up take the genitive plural).
  • INS полови́ной · Dictionary полови́на (fem., "half");
    After с ("with"), instrumental: восемна́дцать с полови́ной, "eighteen and a half".
  • The tooltip shows 18.5 кг. Кг is short for килогра́мм, and the audio says the full words. Russian normally writes a decimal with a comma (18,5); the game uses a point.
  • Read as a decimal instead, the noun is genitive singular: восемна́дцать и пять деся́тых килогра́мма.

Loadout: Field Jacket

The arsenal loadout screen, titled Арсенал and снаряжение, with the Полевая куртка M65 tooltip open on the left: its description, Требуется припасов: 0, Фракция: Армия США, and a weight of 0.6 кг.

Field Jacket Tooltip

Полева́я ку́ртка M65
M65 Field Jacket
  • NOM ку́ртка · Dictionary ку́ртка (fem., "jacket");
    Head noun, nominative.
  • NOM Полева́я ("field") · Agrees with ку́ртка, nominative feminine. From по́ле ("field"), as in полева́я фо́рма, "field uniform".
  • M65 is the American model designation, for the year it was introduced, written in Latin letters as in the game. Players read it as эм шестьдеся́т пять.
Полева́я ку́ртка а́рмии США ста́рой моде́ли, предста́вленная в ты́сяча девятьсо́т шестьдеся́т пя́том году́ и изгото́вленная из водо- и ветронепроница́емой сме́си хло́пка и нейло́на
An older-design US Army field jacket, introduced in 1965 and made from a water- and wind-resistant blend of cotton and nylon. (The tooltip writes the year as 1965.)
  • NOM ку́ртка · Dictionary ку́ртка (fem., "jacket");
    Head noun of the whole description.
  • NOM Полева́я ("field") · Agrees with ку́ртка, nominative feminine.
  • GEN а́рмии · Dictionary а́рмия (fem., "army");
    Genitive, "of the army": ку́ртка а́рмии США, "a US Army jacket".
  • GEN США · Short for Соединённые Шта́ты Аме́рики ("United States of America"), read as letters: сэ-шэ-а́;
    Genitive, "of the USA", modifying а́рмии. An abbreviation like this never declines, so it looks the same in every case.
  • GEN моде́ли · Dictionary моде́ль (fem., "model, design");
    Genitive of description: ку́ртка ста́рой моде́ли, "a jacket of an old design".
  • GEN ста́рой ("old") · Agrees with моде́ли, genitive feminine.
  • NOM предста́вленная ("introduced") · Past passive participle of предста́вить (pf., "to present, introduce"), agreeing with ку́ртка.
  • PREP году́ · Dictionary год (masc., "year");
    After в, prepositional. Год is one of the masculine nouns with a special stressed -у́ ending for place and time: в году́, never в го́де.
  • PREP пя́том ("fifth") · Ordinal пя́тый, agreeing with году́, prepositional masculine.
    In a compound ordinal only the last word declines, so ты́сяча девятьсо́т шестьдеся́т stays unchanged. The tooltip shows the digits 1965; the audio reads the year in full.
  • NOM изгото́вленная ("made, manufactured") · Past passive participle of изгото́вить (pf., "to make, manufacture"), agreeing with ку́ртка.
  • GEN сме́си · Dictionary смесь (fem., "mixture, blend");
    After из ("from, out of"), which always takes the genitive.
  • GEN ветронепроница́емой ("windproof") · Agrees with сме́си, genitive feminine. Built from ве́тер ("wind") + не + проница́емый ("penetrable").
  • Водо- is the first half of водонепроница́емой ("waterproof"). When two compounds share a second half, Russian writes it once and leaves a hyphen on the first word, just like English "water- and windproof".
  • GEN хло́пка · Dictionary хло́пок (masc., "cotton");
    Genitive, "of cotton", describing the blend. The о drops out when an ending is added: хло́пок, хло́пка.
  • GEN нейло́на · Dictionary нейло́н (masc., "nylon");
    Genitive, joined to хло́пка by и.
Тре́буется припа́сов: 0
Supply cost: 0 (literally "Of supplies is required: 0")
  • тре́буется · Third person present of тре́боваться, the -ся form of тре́бовать ("to demand").
  • GEN припа́сов · Dictionary припа́с (masc., "supply, stock");
    Genitive plural. Ноль ("zero") governs the counted noun exactly like five and up do: ноль припа́сов.
  • Clothing is free to take from the arsenal, unlike the R-107M radio on the same screen, which costs 50.
Фра́кция: А́рмия США
Faction: US Army
  • NOM Фра́кция · Dictionary фра́кция (fem., "faction");
    The label before the colon, nominative.
  • NOM А́рмия · Dictionary а́рмия (fem., "army");
    The value after the colon, also nominative.
  • GEN США · Short for Соединённые Шта́ты Аме́рики ("United States of America"), read as letters: сэ-шэ-а́;
    Genitive, "army of the USA". Being an abbreviation, it never changes form.
  • The flag beside this line on screen shows which side the item belongs to; each faction's arsenal only stocks its own gear.
Ноль це́лых шесть деся́тых килогра́мма
0.6 kilograms (shown as 0.6 кг on the tooltip)
  • NOM Ноль · Dictionary ноль (masc., "zero");
    The whole-number part, nominative.
  • GEN це́лых · From це́лая ("whole"), genitive plural after ноль;
    Russian reads a decimal as so many wholes and so many tenths. After одна́ it would be одна́ це́лая.
  • NOM шесть · Dictionary шесть (numeral, "six");
    The number of tenths, nominative.
  • GEN деся́тых · From деся́тая ("tenth", feminine to agree with an understood часть, "part");
    Genitive plural, counted by шесть.
  • GEN килогра́мма · Dictionary килогра́мм (masc., "kilogram");
    Genitive SINGULAR: after a decimal fraction the noun is always genitive singular, however large the number. Compare the radio's восемна́дцать с полови́ной килогра́ммов.
  • Кг is short for килогра́мм, and the audio says the full words. Russian normally writes a decimal with a comma (0,6); the game uses a point. In quick speech people often just say ноль шесть.
