peer agreement (net): +1People's Defense Platoons (destroyer) Explanation: stribas stribas (2) šnek. civilinių ginkluotų sovietų valdžios būrių, 1944-1954 m. Lietuvoje padėjusių okupantams vykdyti represijas, narys Reprisals against pro-Soviet farms and villages were harsh. The NKVD units, named People's Defense Platoons (known by the Lithuanians as pl. stribai, from the Russian: izstrebiteli – destroyers) used shock tactics to discourage further resistance such as displaying executed partisans' corpses in village courtyards. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forest_Brothers (Sovietinė propaganda, norėdama sumenkinti partizaninį judėjimą, tvirtino priešingai ir partizanus vadino banditais, o suformuotus iš pritariančių valdžiai ginkluotus būrius, talkinusius reguliariai Raudonajai armijai - liaudies gynėjais, kuriuos savo ruožtu, žmonės vadino paniekinamai - stribais (rus. истребитель - naikintojas) arba skrebais.) Nezinau, kaip jums tai tiktu prie konteksto... bet iki siol radau tik paaiskinima sio zodzio. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2009-11-20 07:01:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Da radau stribai isversta kaip = Destructor http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic.php?t=68305 |

stribas (a local armed member) Explanation: Siūlyčiau palikti stribas (a local armed member), nes vertimą bus sunku rasti. Jeigu tai yra prozos kūrinys ar pjesės scenarijus (iš pateikto teksto atrodo, kad taip), mano nuomone, reikėtų palikti tikruosius veikėjų vardus kaip komsorgas, partorgas, stribas, tik vardinant veikėjus prie tikrųjų vardų skliaustuose paaiškinti, kas jie tokie, pvz.: Veikėjai: ...., son, daughter, stribai (local armed members) ir t.t. http://www.komisija.lt/Files/www.komisija.lt/File/Tyrimu_baz... Stribai The Stribai were a “local armed unit” established in Lithuania by resolutions of the LKP(b) CK and LKT and intended to fight “with banditry and other anti-Soviet elements.” Especially significant were the CK and LKT resolutions to found a squad of 20-40 Stribai in each district.
