письмо другу (про Ялту Крым)

Answer 1

Dear AnyaI learned a lot of new Yalta . And you know what the most common version , the name of the city comes from the Greek. ( Gialos ) - " Beach", but there is a hypothesis that has a name of Turkic origin. The first mention of Yalta , dating from 1154 year , we find the Arab historian al- Idrisi . Halite , or Kaulitoy Dzhalita he calls kumanskyh ( Polovtsian ) city on the Black Sea coast. Since Crimean yalyda means " ashore " ( Crimean Tatar Yaly - " shore " is thus borrowing from Greek and is all from the same Greek.And Yalta beaches and natural , gradually collapsed due to heavy landslides. Only in the late 20th century, people have taken to stop landslides and create beautiful , comfortable beach. It was built retaining walls, slopes will balance the load , and in the seabed were dug trenches that covered stone. Floating cranes were installed stotonni groynes between which lay millions of cubic meters of rubble. Vidshlifuvavshy it has completed the work of the builders of the sea . The artificial beach created now even in areas that recently were considered completely unsuitable for swimming. Now both sides of Yalta, on the west and east , uncomfortable seat trim shear cliffs occupied beaches.
