Dear Seelangers,
     I have a senior who is translating two skazki as an honors
project.  One of them is entitled "Suvorushka" from the collection
"Sibirskie skazki" collected by I.S. Korovkin and published in
Novosibirsk in 1973.  There is one word which has us stumped, even our
resident native speakers.  It is "na fatere" and occurs in the following
context: "A gde Druzhevna Korolevna?  Ona vot na fatere u babushki.
Togda vse troe poshli tuda".  Any suggestions would be gratefully
appreciated!
                                                            Carol Ueland
