Dear Robert,
see : http://books.google.fr/books?id=yE8pAAAAYAAJ&pg=RA1-PA298&lpg=RA1-PA298&dq=asseoir+un+cheval&source=bl&ots=blo5RXhZUE&sig=uRfpNsUx6St_Cxl9FApsmH20kuU&hl=fr&ei=RN9fSuDwF4XQ-QaYxoGPCw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5
for "asseoir un cheval" ( word-to-word "sit a horse". Not a rider myself, I found only occurences which dealt with
training horses for circus-like performances.
So it is a bit strange to imagine invader's forces performing prestigious horse-riding positions
rather than caring for security...
Philippe

Objet : [SEELANGS] Horse talk (Grossman - V gorode Berdicheve)
Dear all (and especially riders)
It is 1921. The following para describes what everyone knows will happen
when the Polish troops enter the town of Berdichev:
????? ?????? ?? ???????. ?????? ????? ????????? ? ???????, ????????
??????????? ????????????? ?? ????????????, ???????, ?????????? ?????, ?
?????????, ??????? ???????? ???????? ????????, ???????????? ??????, ?????
????????, ?????? ?? ?????????? ? ????? ??????, ??????? ?????? ?? ????.
The words I can't translate are ?????? ????? ????????? (loshadi budut
prisedat')
I've tried to find examples of this use of the word on the net. The best I
have found is this, from a website devoted to advanced riding techniques.
?????????? ????????? ?????????? 3 ???????? ????????. ?? ???????? ???
??????????, ??????????? ? ??????????, ??? ???????? ??????? ?????? "????
????? ? ?????". ??? ??????, ??? ?????? ????? ?????????? (?????????) ???? ???
?????????.
But I still can't translate it!
Can anyone help?
Best wishes,
Robert
