GOOD ADVICE: Ukrainian Lost in Translation

Of course, I have no real working knowledge of my ancestral Ukrainian language and needed to know what 'family forensics' would be there. Using the google translation software did give me direct version. However, sometimes one language's phrase can get lost in translation.

Received a nice note today from Andriy...with a little advice for my blog:
I had a look at your genealogy blog. I do like your design and your approach!
I noticed a phrase in Ukrainian on the top of it - "сім'ї експертизи" which is not quite correct. "сімейні дослідження" would be better. Sorry for that ;)
Thus, the little change to my banner is corrected...and the moral of the story is to always be open to a little help
even from my new distant friend.  Thanks Andriy!
