✾ Book 'The Time Machine' Wells 'La Machine à explorer le temps'

ⓘ I may be some time Ce sont les mots ("je risque d'en avoir pour un certain temps") qu'aurait prononcés le capitaine Oates lorsqu'il sortit de la tente qu'il occupait avec le capitaine Scott au cours de leur expédition de 1912 au pôle sud. Oates souffrait de gelures multiples et afin de ne pas ralentir la progression de ses camarades, il décida de se sacrifier en disparaissant dans la tourmente. Cet épisode est censé symboliser les qualités d'héroïsme et d'abnégation associées au caractère britannique. Aujourd'hui, on emploie cette formule par allusion à Oates sur le mode humoristique lorsque l'on sort d'une pièce ou bien lorsqu'on va aux toilettes.

USAGE:

(1.) Название праздников, в которые входит слово day, таких, как, New Year's Day, Victory Day, Independence Day, International Women's Day, употребляется без артикля. (2.) Русское сочетание "на днях" соответствует английским the other day, если оно относится к прошлому, или one of these days, если оно относится к будущему, сочетание these days в значении "теперь, на этих днях" относится к будущему. (3.) В косвенной речи при согласовании времен вместо наречий ysterday и tomorrow и наречных сочетаний the day before yesterday и the day after tomorrow употребляются: (on) the previous day/the day before, the next day, two days before, two days later. (4.) Русские раньше, в былые времена соответствуют в английском языке сочетанию in old days: in my school days в мои школьные годы. В предложениях с такими наречными оборотами часто используется в качестве сказуемого конструкция с модальным глаголом would и инфинитивом смыслового глагола, которая имеет значение повторявшегося в прошлом действия: in my school days I would often come and play with them в мои школьные дни я бывало (часто приходил поиграть с ними). (5.) Русскому существительному сутки соответствует английское сочетание day and night, русские однажды - one day, через день/каждые два дня - every other day. (6.) Good day! может быть как приветствием, так и прощанием. В качестве первого оно произносится с повышающей интонацией, а в качестве второго - с понижающейся
