Russian term
на трех струнах/на двух струнах
Russian to English
Art/Literary
Music
Please excuse my lack of familiarity with the Cyrillic alphabet and keyboard. The above is my best approximation of a musical indication that appears on an older edition of a violin piece that my son downloaded from a free sheet music site. I'm not even 100% sure it's Russian; the original cover page is not included and the majority of the musical markings are the international standard (i.e., mostly Italian, a few violin-specific French terms).

double-stopped, triple-stopped
I play the violin, and this is how we normally talk about 'playing on two strings' or 'playing on three strings'. The 'stop' in 'double-stopped' refers to the fact that you 'stop' the string with the bow.
