nyusha scared this babooshka - she didn't dare to leave her fence until i took the dogs away. i said 'they are good, they never bite'. and she answered 'how can you rely on them?' (разве на них можно надеяться?)

i know, and also kerchiefs. but that's ridiculous, because in russian bAbooshka (a stressed) is an old woman. or grandmother. bAba - is a rural word for 'woman', and 'babooshka' is an old woman
