Questions & Answers about Перепад высот указан на перевале.
What does перепад высот literally mean?
Literally, it means difference in heights/elevations.
- перепад = a difference, drop, or change between levels
- высот = of heights/elevations
As a whole, перепад высот is a common Russian expression for elevation difference or height difference.
Why is высот in the genitive plural?
Because перепад normally takes the genitive to show what kind of difference or change it is.
So Russian is structured like:
- перепад чего?
- высот
The plural is natural because the idea involves comparing more than one elevation point. That is why Russian uses высот rather than a singular form here.
