@Alfred Hugecock as a Russian native speaker I would say when it comes to "Грозный" translation ... well.... Formidable or even Fearsome are more accurate translations.
People always say, “Ivan the Terrible, he's so terrible. I'm so scared of Ivan. He's bad news." When in fact, the correct translation is “Ivan the Awesome”
Not exactly. "Grozniy" is used when the person causes some danger and you feel unsave about him. When a russian says "Ivan Grozniy" it means he is terrified with him
There's a story that said, during the Massacre of Novgorod, that Ivan had very unique forms of execution born from his demented mind. Allegedly, Ivan had a large frying pan created, and he used it to literally roast his enemies. Not to mention the Archbishop of Novgorod was sewn into bear skin and thrown to the dogs. He boiled his treasurer alive in a cauldron. His Councilor was even hung and the Orpichniki took turns hacking the Councilor's limbs off. Suffice to say, when the Russians call you 'the terrible' they're not messing around.

6:08 Text Bubble: "If I eat one more potato I'm going to turn into a spud myself". There were no potatoes in Muscovy during Ivan's times. Potato plants were introduced in Russia a 100 years after Ivan's reign and then it took another 100 years for potatoes to become a food staple. The turnip was the Russian staple food until the mid-XVIII century.
The Russian call him- Иван Грозный, which in fact meant Ivan the strict, not Ivan the terrible, I know he wasn’t a very just individual however he was called something else and it would be fair if the western historians would call him what he was actually called by the people he ruled over by
Ivan and Henry the 8th would probably get along with both having a lot of wives and all. Even the stories of each wife seems somewhat parallels of each other. Plus they had an oversized sense of self worth, insane paranoia, hatred or anyone who challenges their power, and ruthless cruelty.
Compared to Henry VIII, he was an innocent child playing in a sandbox. During the entire reign of Ivan the Terrible, 4,000 people were executed, and under Henry VIII, no less than 72,000 people were executed.
@Vlog-hu8gb they should translate it correctly. Ivan was called "Formidable" in Moskovia, not terrible. Also to the point, the Good Queen Elizabeth I killed mare of her subjects than Ivan IV.
You do know that it was made to reflect Muscovy's religion back then. Religious tolerance was not the best thing practiced at that age so they used that word.

Ivan the Terrible was given this nickname by the Pope after he refused to become Catholic. Don't forget that Constantinople just ceased to exist, and turning Russia Catholic would almost eliminate Orthodox Christianity. And Ivan IV was an obstacle to that. That says a lot about our distorted perception of history
Tsar Ivan IV in Russia known as "Terrible" in the Commonwealth was known as "Ivan the Coward" because during the Polish-Russian wars he always closed himself in fortresses and never decided to face the Polish army in the battlefield.
The greatest mistake about Ivan IV was the translation of his name to the European languages. 'Grozny' (грозный) does not mean terrible in this case but formidable. Word 'grozny' derives from 'groza' (гроза) - thunderstorm. But as Russia is terrible so one of her greatest tsars historically was called terrible.
It’s not really a mistranslation. Ivan was indeed a Terrible tsar during his reign, and one of the few leaders in history to have a unique title (like Richard the Lionheart and Suleiman the Magnificent)
What if everyone person who did something bad, maybe like steal a candy got “terrible” after their name. Ouch, well, what do I know. I’m just a rat with raternet.
