Л = Rook (Ladya)
К = Knight (Kon')
Кр = King (Korol')
Ф = Queen (Fyerz which means something as Fortress)
С = Bishop (Slon which means Olifant)
  

Yusupov once said that “The problem with the Dutch Defence is that later in many positions the best move would be ...f5-f7” but he is surely wrong.

Thank you both for your help. I knew I could count on someone in the Forum! Be able to ask questions is just one of the reasons it's a good idea to be a member. Smiley

Also, the google web translator isn't as horrible as the translator bots used to be.  

A while ago, someone posted a 50 minute video of a Tal lecture and asked for a translation. If you have short passages that you want translated, you might get a positive response here!

Those who want to go by my perverse footsteps play such pawn structure with fuzzy atypical still strategic orientations

A while back I bought a couple of books on the Veresov which were written in Russian. The advert said that there were symbols used instead of language -- not so. 

There is enough Russian there to make me want to know what it is all about. Any suggestions on how I can translate some of this (without doing a Russian language course)?
