         ♦...[ Я] сказал, что ни с кем не общаюсь и нигде не бываю. "...Но вы же были на художественной выставке и там смотрели абстрактные картины". Ах, вот оно что! Хотя это была выставка совершенно официальная и никто не предупреждал, что ходить на неё не надо, но как советский человек я должен был понимать, что на абстрактные картины лучше все-таки не смотреть (Войнович 1). I said that I didn't associate with anyone and didn't go anywhere. "...You've been to an art exhibit, and you looked at abstract paintings." Oh, so that was it! Even though that exhibit had been entirely official, and no one had warned me not to go there, as a good Soviet I should have known that, no matter what, it's best to avoid looking at abstract paintings (1a).
         ♦ Вот оно что! Письмо не дошло до адресата, потому что в адресе ошибка! So that's what happened! The letter didn't get to the addressee because there was a mistake in the address!
         ♦ Конференция, старая лошадь, новые сады, бюллетени и лаванда, овечки с паспортами. Ах, вот оно что! Какой-то французский реакционный префект выслал этих колхозников из Франции, не постеснявшись заявить публично, что они поселились в районе, где интересы национальной обороны требуют повышенной бдительности (Войнович 1). A conference, an old horse, new orchards, bulletins and lavender, sheep with passports. Ah, now I see! Some reactionary French prefect deported those kolkhozniks from France and was not ashamed to state publicly that they had settled in an area where national defense interests required increased vigilance (1a).
         ♦ "Оказывается, когда пьёшь вниз головой, быстро хмелеешь. Хмель сразу же стекает в голову" - "Ах, вот оно что", - сказал Объедало и успокоился (Искандер 5). "When you drink head down, it turns out, you get tipsy fast. The tipsiness runs straight to your head." "Really?" Trencherman said, mollified (5a).
         ♦ [Саяпин:]...Без жены он, сам знаешь, ни шагу. [Зилов:] А он жену вчера на юг отправил. [Саяпин:] Вот оно что. То-то загулял мужик... (Вампилов 5). [S.:]... You know he doesn't make a move without his wife. [Z.:] But he sent her off to the south yesterday. [S.:] So that's why the guy is cutting loose... (5b).
