Russian term or phrase: 7 горячих и 10 холодных (порка ремнем)
"И сколько выделим? Ладно, 7 горячих и 10 холодненьких".

Советское училище. Нового ученика приводят к присяге. Он снимает рубашку и ложится. Бьют по спине, получается...

Буду очень благодарна, если поясните разницу между этими ударами и поможете с переводом!

English translation:heavy and light
Explanation:
Горячие и холодные различаются силой удара, так сказать, полновесные и легковесные. Бить могут чем угодно, в принципе, ремнем, розгами, плетью.
Посмотрите по ссылке - описана, как мне кажется, аналогичная процедура принятия присяги. Стр. 22.

disagree  The Misha: This makes no sense at all for an English speaker. You cannot use "beats" in this sense, unless they are heartbeats.
