семья

I think that's a 'ya rodilla', not a poanna.

Google says: Semya is Family.

... and Ya rodilla is "I gave birth". According to Google, anyway.

семья is pronounced: Sem'ya

Я родила is pronounced: Ya rodilla

I learned how to read Cyrillic characters in order to read Russian chess magazines, back in the 1970s.

Not kidding.

You got it.

Back in the early 1970s, the chess world consisted of three elements: The Russians, Bobby Fischer, and a few scattered semi-patzers like Larsen and Huebner.

You either read Russian chess magazines, or you read trash.

Larsen wrote a couple of pamphlets (one on the Philidor) but no chess magazines. Huebner wrote even less than Larsen. In Soviet Russia, a chess GM received a salary... so they could do much more writing than Western GMs who had to hold down a job.

You are right.

She informed  us that she gave birth.
