hi all,

how would you say, "invincible summer" in Russian. As in "in the midst of winter, I finally learned that there was in me an invincible summer".

EDIT: i've been meaning to ask this for quite awhile now as well--is there a similiar term in Russian for the english navigational term "true north"?

Many, many thanks!!

True north - истинный север. Or географический север - it may depend on the area in which the term is used - I'm not a specialist, unfortunately.

BTW "true" in phrases like "true altitude", "true airspeed" etc is often translated as "истинный".

Multitran special dictionaries can be very useful in such cases.

истинный север - at least the military usage. :)
