romanization question

[lexabear.livejournal.com]

I'm looking at a romanized transcription of a (Russian) girl's speech. I can understand most of it, but there's one word I can't figure out:

Child: vish', aeti ty krasnen'kie...

How I've re-Russified it is:
Child: Вишь, эти ты красненькие...

Have I Cyrilicized this correctly? Is красненькие some sort of diminuitive from красый? Should she have said ты here or is she making a speech mistake like children do?



(the child and her mom seem to be playing a game about sending postcards/letters)
The child says the following:
vidish', kak u menja vse xorosho vtykaetsja. (Видишь, как у меня все хорошо втыкается.)
a u tebja... (а у тебя...)
vidish', kak ja xochu vtykat'. (видишь, как я хочу втыкать)
a u tebja nexorosho. (а у тебя нехорошо)
u tebja... (у тебя...)
vish', aeti ty krasnen'kie. (Вишь, эти ты красненькие...)
xochesh' popadat'. (хочешь попадать.)

"Вишь" is "Видишь", yeah. But the whole dialog is very strange :) Where you've got this text?

Yes, you retransliterated it correctly except for the "aeti", which, I believe, stood for "а эти" (the girl just forgot to put a space between A and E). "Красненькие" is really a diminitive form of "красные" (this works for a lot of Russian adjectives: "красный" - "красненький", "белый" - "беленький", "глупый" - "глупенький" etc.).
However there is another typo in the original text. "Эти ты красненькие" doesn't really make sense. So I think it should be "эти-то красненькие" (and, accordingly, the original text should've said "eti-to krasnen'kie".
Maybe you should find a more reliable source of Russian or ask the girl to type more accurately. ;-)

Really strange text:)) but anyway, красненький is the diminutive form of word красный, the same will be синенький, зелененький, желтенький (from синий, зеленый, желтый)

Replying to all above comments...

This text is from the CHILDES (http://childes.psy.cmu.edu/) database of transcriptions to be freely used for language research. The text is odd because the speaker is very young (2 and a half) - I maybe should have specified that directly!

'aeti' does mean эти - the ae isn't just ae, but æ, which is how the transcriber elected to transliterate э. I just simplified it when I recopied it here.

The reason I asked about the ты in that line directly was because I thought it didn't make sense, myself, but I wanted to be sure!

One more question:

Does it seem like the girl meant твои instead of ты?

[borodator.livejournal.com]

No way. Even for 2-year-old.

Возможно, было в оригинале

- Вишь, а эти-то красненькие
