Subject: translation query


Dear seelangers:
    A colleague of mine is trying to find a translation for the word
"pribabakhi," in a Russian poem he is translating. Can anyone help?
Reply to me at mllemily at acsu.buffalo.edu.
    Thanks in advance,
    Emily Tall

Hello Emily: Russian speaker here (musician) says you should give the
context, poet, name of poem, etc. Literally, pribabakhi are the little bells
that play off of the big bells.
Pribabyvat', prizvanyvat' (prizvanivat'?).
