Only "recently" can be used here.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

There's no need for the perfect in any of these translations.

Olga, "there's no need for something" - could I say: Перфект в этих переводах ни к чему. ?

Jane Leshadded a comment 8 years ago

Слово "недавно" уже подразумевает перфектное время. Конечно, можно сказать как угодно, используя обычный past simple, в разговорной речи вообще всё, что угодно услышать можно. Слово recently может быть использовано равно как и lately. Оба переводятся как недавно, на днях.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

Извините, Джейн, но я не согласен. Мы используем lately по отношению к настоящему, когда мы говорим об общей ситуации: I've been feeling bad lately. I haven't seen him lately. Lately I feel like I don't know you anymore. (Recently I feel like I don't know you нельзя)

А recently мы используем чаще всего, когда речь идёт об однократном действии в прошлом: I recently saw him at the theater. She's a recently divorced mom. (lately divorced нельзя).

Jane, these two words are used in absolutely different contexts and they are not interchangeable.

Uly, dear, I'm so glad you're back. Да, так можно сказать. "Перфект в этих переводах ни к чему" is absolutely correct.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

Thank you, sweetie, it's good to be back now that there are notifications!

Holy Molyadded a comment 8 years ago

Oh yes! 😊

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

Maybe he can use a dash like in Russian: This - hard for me... 🤔

Holy Molyadded a comment 8 years ago

Yeah 😄
