English to Russian: Ла Томатина
Source text - English Who cast that first fateful tomato that started the La Tomatina revolution? The reality is no one knows. Maybe it was an anti-Franco rebellion, or a carnival that got out of hand. According to the most popular version of the story, during the 1945 festival of Los Gigantes (a giant paper mâché puppet parade), locals were looking to stage a brawl to get some attention. They happened upon a vegetable cart nearby and started hurling ripe tomatoes. Innocent onlookers got involved until the scene escalated into a massive melee of flying fruit. The instigators had to repay the tomato vendors, but that didn't stop the recurrence of more tomato fights—and the birth of a new tradition.
Translation - Russian Кто первым швырнул тот злосчастный помидор, что положил начало движению Ла Томатина? На самом деле этого никто не знает. Возможно, это случилось во время восстания против Франко, или на карнавале, который вдруг вышел из-под контроля. Согласно самой популярной версии, в 1945 году на фестивале Гигантов (параде гигантских кукол из папье-маше) местное население хотело устроить драку, чтоб привлечь внимание. Им под руку попалась овощная тележка, и самые буйные начали швыряться спелыми помидорами. Они попадали в невинных зевак, и вскоре овощное побоище охватило всех вокруг. Те, кто расследовал эти массовые беспорядки, вынуждены были выплатить ущерб продавцам помидоров, но это не предотвратило последующих томатных битв - и рождения новой традиции.
