Russian term

кубические глыбы

Russian to English Science Archaeology
This is a text looking at the Paleolithic in Russia. The full paragraph from which the phrase is taken is as follows:

Уже геолог Г. Е. Щуровский (1878) упоминал в качестве "научных методов раскапывания" съемку плана пещеры, разметку центральной линии, послойное вскрытие отложений участками ("кубическими глыбами") перпендикулярно центральной линии с проведением параллельных разрезов.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Jahongir Sidikov

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
