Compare however:

спорт.com - SPORT [both singular and plural in one]

спортивный.com [THE .COM OF SOMETHING TO DO WITH SPORT] - no way to translate this into English, even Sporting.com doesn't explain it, it's the .COM OF SPORTS, a sportual.com (bad English) . However, words in this form sound very good as a domain names in Russian — but are probably not the first choice for a domain name. A good second choice? Yes, if the market opens up some more. I see more of these being registered by domainers today than in the past.

Example: сексуальный.com Sexual.com (the ".com" itself is SEXUAL and is the object of the sentence), compare with секс.com Sex.com which is just a statement of fact in the simple dictionary form: SEX.com

The plural of this form is сексуальные. But, ".com" is singular. So it doesn't work unless it was ".coms" plural.

Also, we have to consider that .com can be either masculine сексуальный.com, or feminine, сексуальная.com, but I have a sense that a website is masculine, and the ".com" domain itself sounds masculine.

If you speak Spanish I think you can understand what I mean better than if you just spoke English.

Re: My new Russian

ABOUT INFORMATION: (информационное)

Blast, what do you mean with [SOMETHING NEUTER SINGLUAR NOUN]?
Is it information (as Babel says) or informational (adjective) as glow says?

I see it realted a lot to Information Agencies. (информационное агентство)
Is it informational agencies?! And if it is indeed informational, why the информационное 182.571 ALONE result on yandex?!

Should we trust Yandex?!?


ABOUT SEXUAL (сексуальные)

You say "If you speak Spanish I think you can understand what I mean better than if you just spoke English." I sure know what you mean.

For instance, beautifull in Portuguese and certain Spanish countries, is the word "bonito" (he) and bonita (she) and bonitos/bonitas (plural)

However, it does makes sense to me "bonitas" cause the first thing that comes to my mind is not that the ".com" (or what is next to the word) is beautifull, but instead that it must be about something that is beautifull, and of course the first thing that pops into any straight male head is chicks!!! Check www.bonitas.com ...

Also, don't you think the correct translation, as I've seen on another Russian dictionary should be "SEXY"?

I mean it associates with sexual photos / the most sexual / sexual girls / sexual poses .... sexy would make much more sense, no?

And why in hell, the "сексуальн" 81.215 ALONE yandex results? I think it means something like "sexually", but who will search for that ALONE?

Should we trust Yandex?!?



ABOUT SPORTS: (спортивный)

спортивный.com [THE .COM OF SOMETHING TO DO WITH SPORT]

I see on Yandex associations like
спортивный магазин sport store
спортивный комплекс sport complex
спортивный клуб sport club
Whick makes more sense as "sport" only, no?!



ABOUT ME

SOMETHING-BEING-DONE-TO-ME.COM (ME AS OBJECT) UNUSUAL
I really believe you are right, I just need to find out and don't know why so many hits in 2 days....


THANKS VERY, VERY MUCH BLAST and GLOW

Almost nobody.

Someone searches for "информационное агентство" on Yandex, then yandex will give a score to "информационное" alone as a word.

Thats why Yandex is not the best tool for domainers.

информационное агентство = wire service, like AP, AFP, Reuters, etc.

агентство is a neuter word, it is singular, therefore информация must agree with it in number and gender, so it too becomes a singular and neuter adjective информационное.

That may be. Some words that are not very appealing as stand alone domains, and have little commercial application, may still get good typein traffic. Wait and see.

Try this tool: http://adstat.rambler.ru/wrds/wrds.p...5&morph=&cgeo=

this tool reports that this word is not searched for on its own.

you may want to try it out on some other Russian words. It it a refreshing alternative to all those silly large numbers that Yandex presents (which are really just showing all possible results of the term in all search strings)
