Social Sciences - Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc. | | Russian term or phrase: A otnosheniia kakoby? Nu, tak. Seichas ne ochen' | Interview with a drug user. He is talking about the people who he injects with. He mentions one name and the interviewer asks him what his relationship is like with this person.
Is 'Nu, tak" - So, so / nothing special.
'Ne ochen' - presumably this means 'not great'.
He goes on to say: Seichas ne ochen' potomu, chto ya seichas tuberkulezom zabolel, vo-pervykh. Vot seichas ya k etomu ne tak uzh sil'no otnoshus'.
Any ideas what "ne tak uzh sil'no otnoshus" refers to. I thought maybe he is saying that he isn't so interested in taking drugs anymore. |
