Agreed, the English "beautiful" often doesn't seem to capture прекрасно. I always took them to have some overlapping meaning, rather than being a direct translation.
- geoka9 10y ago> the English "beautiful" often doesn't seem to capture прекрасно I agree, but I'd say "excellent" is even further away in meaning. Translating between such distant languages is always an exercise in compromise, unless you're willing to take great liberties at interpretation (when translating poetry, for example).
- kartem 10y agoBeing Russian I suggest "прекрасно" means "perfect" or "excellent" in this context.
