I have to say you really have a talent for writting. Keep at it! I just wanna put my five cents in the discussion. I've never heard <b>«хлопотьня»</b> [bustling about; feverish activity]. But again, it might be just local. It's in a wide use in the area you are now (I assume somewhere in the Ural) but I never heard it in the Russian Far East where I am originally from. Sincerely, Hi there,

I just wanna put my five cents in the discussion. I’ve never heard «хлопотьня» [bustling about; feverish activity]. But again, it might be just local. It’s in a wide use in the area you are now (I assume somewhere in the Ural) but I never heard it in the Russian Far East where I am originally from.

Sincerely,

It's a Slavic thing, I guess. We have a similar word in Polish. But then, Swedish also has those funky words that you can't really translate directly. Personally, I'm totally in love with "jobbig/t" and even started to use it in English. :) Awesome blog! Love it! Hej Josefina!
