  • 5 не то слово

    разг.
    it is not the word < for it>; that's hardly the word;... is too weak a word to describe one's feelings

    - И вам стало меня жалко? - Он ответил: - Жалко - не то слово. Просто я подумал, что нехорошо оставлять вас одну. (Эм. Казакевич, Сердце друга) — 'And you were sorry for me?' 'Sorry isn't the word. I just thought it wouldn't be nice to leave you alone.'

    - Эту бумагу мама получила уже перед самым концом рабочего дня. Сказала, что для вас это очень важно. - Важно - не то слово, - едва слышно отвечает Завьялов. (А. Чаковский, Свет далёкой звезды) — 'Mother received the message just before the office closed... She said it was very important.' 'Important - that's hardly the word,' Zavyalov replied, barely audibly.

    - Алё, старушка. Ты что там немеешь? Довольна? "Довольна" - это было не то слово. Она не знала, как это всё понять. Тем более после последней её неудачи. (И. Ракша, Далеко ли до Чукотки?) — 'Hullo, there! Have you been struck dumb? Aren't you pleased?' 'Pleased' was too weak a word to describe her feelings. She didn't know what to make of it - especially considering her last failure.
