Kir, about "to tell the truth".

You can say either 'to say the truth' or 'to tell the truth' = "по правде
сказать" - both of the readings are correct ;)

You can also use SPEAK THE TRUTH :)
The problem is that it drates on ear. I would suggest to possible variants:
FRANKLY SPEAKING or
TO TELL THE TRUTH.

Dear Margarita,

Comprehensive Russian-English Dictionary by Prof Smirnitsky and Prof
Akhmanova (Большой русско-английский словарь проф. Смирнитского и проф.
Ахмановой -- 25 издание от 2002 г.) gives the following variants :

'to tell/say the truth' and 'truth to tell/say'.

Regards,
Kir
