[fə'get]
v

(forgot, forgotten) забывать

Mind what you are saying, don't forget yourself. — Думай, что ты говоришь, не забывайся.

Soon learnt soon forgotten. — ◊ Наскоро заучишь, скоро позабудешь.

- forget smb
- forget why
- forget about smb, smth
- forget doing smth
- forget to do smth
- forget oneself
USAGE:

(1.) Русскому я забыл книгу (тетрадь) дома (на работе) соответствует в английском языке I left the book (the notebook) at home или I forgot to bring the book; don't leave your umbrella behind не забудьте свой зонтик. (2.) Хотя глагол to forget может употребляться как с последующим герундием, так и с последующим инфинитивом, эти конструкции описывают разные ситуации: to forget doing smth относится к тому, что произошло; to forget to do smth относится к тому, что еще не произошло, ср. I shall never forget meeting you никогда не забуду, как мы встретились и don't forget to post that letter не забудь отправить это письмо; he forgot to lock the door он забыл закрыть дверь, ср. he forgot locking the door он забыл, что он закрыл дверь. Эти две конструкции различают также значения глаголов to remember, to stop. (3.) Глагол to forget в предложениях, передающих эмоциональное неодобрение, упрек, раздражение, употребляется в форме Present Continuous в отличие от предложений, которые описывают обычные нейтральные ситуации: behave yourself! you are forgetting your manners веди себя прилично, ты забываешь, как надо себя вести; he is always forgetting to give my regards to her он вечно забывает передать ей привет от меня. (4.) See confuse, v (5.) See know, v

WAYS OF DOING THINGS:

Нижеследующие глаголы и словосочетания описывают разные виды забывания, забывчивости - to slip one's mind - "забывать/выпасть из памяти (особенно потому что вы заняты чем-либо другим), забывать что-либо сделать".

Словосочетание slip one's mind - забыть, выпасть из памяти: I'm sorry I didn't phone, I was working and it slipped my mind извините, что я не позвонил, я работал, и это у меня совсем выпало из памяти; I'm sure we have agreed to meet here may be it just slipped his mind я уверена, что мы договорились встретиться здесь, но возможно он об этом забыл.

Словосочетание to skip one's mind - "забывать, что договорились": Jane's moved house, it probably skipped her mind that we had arranged to meet for coffee yesterday Джейн переехала на другую квартиру и, возможно забыла, что мы договорились встретиться вчера на чашку кофе.

Словосочетание one's mind goes blank - "вылетело из головы, (особенно в данный момент, когда вас об этом спрашивают или это вам нужно)": my mind has gone blank - I can't remember her name не могу вспомнить, как ее зовут, ее имя совершенно вылетело из головы; Ann had studied really hard for the exam, but when she saw the exam paper her mind suddenly went blank" Аня много занималась перед экзаменом, но когда она увидела экзаменационный билет, у нее вдруг все вылетело из головы.

Словосочетание to be on the tip of your tongue - "вертится на языке (никак не вспомнить)": What was his name again? It is on the tip of my tongue. Как же его зовут? Его имя вертится у меня на языке.

Словосочетание can't place - "узнать, но не помнить, где или когда вы это/его видели или встречали": I'm sure I've seem him before, but I just can't place him я уверен, что я его видел, но не могу вспомнить при каких обстоятельствах; her perfume seemed familiar but he couldn't place it ee духи казались такими знакомыми, но он не мог вспомнить откуда он знал этот запах.

Глагол to escape smb - "забывать на очень короткое время название или слово": I've seen that actor in quite a few films, but his name escapes me for the moment помню, что я видела этого актера во многих фильмах, но сейчас не могу вспомнить как его зовут.

Словосочетание to go in one ear and out of the other - "в одно ухо вошло, в другое вышло; забывать что-либо очень быстро (особенно потому, что это вас не интересует)": she understands nothing about football, so it all goes in one ear and out of the other она ничего не понимает в футболе, и поэтому все это у нее в одно ухо входит и выходит в другое; I find it all so boring, that it just in one ear and goes out of the other это все так скучно, что у меня это в одно ухо входит, в другое выходит

ⓘ RIGHT TO ROAM Depuis toujours, une très grande partie des plus beaux endroits de la campagne britannique est interdite au public et pendant des siècles, les propriétaires terriens ont tout fait pour que la situation reste inchangée. Cependant, en mai 2000, le gouvernement travailliste introduisit le "right to roam" qui devrait ouvrir aux promeneurs plus d'1,6 million d'hectares de campagne et environ 6400 kilomètres de droits de passage. De nombreux propriétaires terriens ont exprimé leur mécontentement car ils estiment que les promeneurs abîment les cultures et perturbent le bétail mais avec les nouvelles propositions de loi, ils ne pourraient interdire le passage sur leurs terres que 28 jours par an au maximum.

Note: This much-used verb has no multi-purpose equivalent in French and therefore is very often translated by choosing a synonym: to get lunch = to prepare lunch = préparer le déjeuner

get is used in many idiomatic expressions ( to get something off one's chest etc) and translations will be found in the appropriate entry (chest etc). This is also true of offensive comments ( get lost etc) where the appropriate entry would be lost

Remember that when get is used to express the idea that a job is done not by you but by somebody else ( to get a room painted etc) faire is used in French followed by an infinitive ( faire repeindre une pièce etc)

When get has the meaning of become and is followed by an adjective (to get rich/drunk etc) devenir is sometimes useful but check the appropriate entry (rich, drunk etc) as a single verb often suffices ( s'enrichir, s'enivrer etc)
