Verify translation of азиатские

[domain_trader]

Can this word stand-alone as "Asian": азиатские?

Thanks.

[khurtsiya]

I think it is not. This is plural adjective.

[domain_trader]

Thanks. Man this Russian is tricky.

[khurtsiya]

Just as Chinese/Japanese for me

But I have a question. When people say that a word cannot stand alone in Russian, what does that mean exactly? For example, in English we can have the word 'beautiful', which begs the question, beautiful what? But the word still makes sense standing alone. So if I had beautiful.com, I'd think I had quite a good domain name (in fact, I could probably retire if I owned that name!). So is that what we are talking about? Or is it that these terms in Russian make little sense on their own, much like the prefix 'para' makes no sense unless you attach it to another term like parachute, paraphrase, paranormal, etc.?

[khurtsiya]

I think those words do not make sense.

For example - if You have beautiful.com (ASCII) - You can reire. If You have красивый.com (beautiful.com russian IDN) - You can drop it...

I mean for russians it sounds like the beautiful is particulary ".com"

But who knows... May be such domains will be popular in meaning of domain hacks... F.e. for drop-catcher companies: "Wellcome! Here You find Красивый .COM!"

[domain_trader]

Okay, I understand. So in the same way, might it be possible to use азиатские.com to promote Asian .com's?

[khurtsiya]

Shure.

This will be idn hack

Thanks for your help. I'm now just a little bit wiser.
