Translation for "Sotki"
« on: April 19, 2011, 09:01:04 AM »
Can anyone tell me what this terms means? It has to do with area ( square foot/yard/meter). My Russian dictionary does not list the term and an online translation tells me "weave".

That is colloquial term for are (100 sq meters);
Сотка = ед. ч. Сотки = мн. ч.
Sotka = singular, sotki = plural

Sotka is 100 in common parlance

1 sotka = 100 m2 = 1/100 hectare = 0.024710 acre = 0 acre and 119.5 yd˛
