Stranitsy

Stranitsy is the transliteration commonly used in English for the Russian plural страницы, meaning pages. The corresponding singular is stranitsa (страница). The term denotes the individual leaves or sides of a bound text as well as discrete navigable units in digital content. Similar words exist in other Slavic languages, such as Bulgarian страници and Serbian page approximations, all referring to pages or page-like units.

In traditional publishing, stranitsy are the printable units of a book, magazine, or manuscript. They are numbered sequentially, and references often specify a range, for example, pages 10–12 or на страницах 10–12. In digital contexts, the equivalent concept appears as web pages or pages of a website. Phrases such as web stranitsy or страницы сайта describe the navigable contents of an online site. The term can also appear in libraries and bibliographies to indicate page counts or to locate information within a document.

Stranitsy also functions as a transliterated label in multilingual or academic discourse, where Cyrillic text may be presented to non-Cash users. While the word is closely tied to printed media, its digital usage has become widespread as the distinction between physical and electronic pages fades in practice. In sum, stranitsy refers to the plural notion of pages across both print and digital media.
