( PLEASE TRIM ! )

Google gives
Бери Сент-Едмундс for Ukrainian and Бери Сент-Эдмундс for Russian but
then a search for the first gets corrupted to the second with both
hyphens by google :(

Being linguistically challenged, is this simply a translation of the
three words anyway? It's difficult to understand where 'translations'
come from some time. Chipping Campden is giving дроблення Campden so
obviously not all words translate?
