Pereletok

Moved the following text from the article:

  • "Soil that will thaw only during a hotter-than-average summer is known as 'Pereletok' (a Russian word meaning "old ice". It can also be referred to as an Intergelisol."

The meaning "old ice" is plain wrong! The russian word for "ice" is "лед" (led, with "d") while here the root is with "t". The word "перелеток" ("pereletok") is having in turn several meanings:

  • derived from the noun "лето" (leto, summer)
    • a young adult animal who lived one summer (example: one-year a snow that is not thawing during the summer, i.e. surviving "over" the summer;
  • derived from the verb "летать" (letat', fly) - migratory birds who "fly over" certain place.

The text is unsorced, and the credibility of the sources cannot be verified. --85.187.29.139 (talk) 12:11, 11 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
