Hello :)
Is there any very good russian-english dictionary on the internet?
Thanks in advace :)

In Russian translation, a lot of the time that I would use the word “who”, “which”, or “that”, I've been instructed to use «который» instead of «кто» or «что». Under what circumstances would I use «кто/что»?

[edit:] Also, what does one with a feminine noun like «студентка» when one declines it in the plural genitive? With ones like «планета», I know that it's declined to «планет», but «студентк» seems rather difficult to pronounce. Does one just pronounce «студентк», or is there some other rule for nouns of this sort?

All right, let me try this again.

How do you say "baggage claim carousel" in Russian?

I don't like the multitran.ru variant: "вращающееся устройство для выдачи багажа авиапассажирам". It's too wordy.

Thanks for your help!

Heather (who forgot that she should always post to learn_russian in English, not in Russian)

UPD: Thanks to everyone for your suggestions! I'll try these out on my next caller, and we'll see which one works the best!
