An alternative suggestion Explanation: If you are still looking for an English translation of this word, I would suggest two steps: 1) provide its correct Ukrainian spelling, and 2) see if you can find a Russian equivalent, that should give you access to many more specialized dictionaries. |

projection Explanation: Sources: 1. Russian-Ukrainian Construction Dict-ry [Ukr. ризаліт = Rus. ризалит] 2. Russian-English Dict-ry in 3 volumes [it also gives another translation for ризалит: "break", but I would noy use it]. Vadim see above |

risalita Explanation: Ryzalit is not English (It may be Polish spelling, etc.) Russian: ризалит Ukrainian: ризаліт (Частина будинку, що виступає за основну лінію фасаду. Ризаліти розташовуються симетрично центральної осі фасаду. У архітектурі Ренесансу і класицизму вони підкреслювали симетрію будинку і прикрашалися колонами, пілястрами, фронтонами (Зимовий палац у Санкт-Петербурзі, будинок мерії у Москві, архітектура Гінзбурга у Харкові). У сучасній архітектурі ризаліт - це один із прийомів посилення виразності будинків і споруджень. Origin: Italian (risalita) meaning projection, ledge. The English should borrow Italian spelling to show exactly this kind of architectural element, like in "HEIRS TO AVERKY KIRILLOV": ... After the tragic death of Averky Kirillov, the ownership of the palace was passed on to his widow Evfimia E. Kirillova (1622-1682), who passed away in October of the same year... ... at that time architecture was beginning to lean towards the fashion of symmetry, so they had to build a narrow risalita ledge on the right side of the porch. www.rik.ru Хай Вам щастить |
