Практикум по синхронному переводу с русского языка на английский

вроде как не уезжала я никуда — since the sentence is colloquial in
Russian, the translation can reproduce this tone: "Just like I never left"
or "It's just like I never left."

1. 
   было вполне закономерным — закономерный is always tricky for
   translation, but here "logical" or "legitimate" will do. It can also be
   rendered as "understandable" or "explicable."
   

1. 
   совершенно нереально — the idea is that this was impossible, rather
   than "unreal," which does not work well here. "Unthinkable" or "out of
   the question" would be the most colloquial renderings of this expression.
   

1. 
   этой кровавой страны — the interpreter should be very careful not to
   translate this as "this bloody country," which does not make sense and, if
   the word "bloody" is used in the British sense, implies a sarcastic or iro­
   nic kind of disapproval, and a figurative meaning of the word, which is not
   what is intended in this statement — (e.g. "the house was in a state of total
   disorder; it was a bloody mess"). Also, since Viktoria Fyodorova has lived
   for years in America, she is obviously not speaking British English.
   

1. 
   но человек я русский — "but I'm a Russian person" is meaningless in
   English, and the idea here is one of apposition — "I have American
   citizenship on the one hand, but on the other I'm still Russian." "I'm
   Russian at heart" provides a contrast to the "American citizenship."
