    - X sits around (here, there) whining (sniveling).
         ♦ Надо действовать, ребята, а не сопли распускать. Если только ныть и жаловаться друг другу - толку не будет. We've got to take action, guys, and not sit here sniveling. We won't get anywhere by just whining and complaining to each other.
