«Чёрная овца», паршивая овца. Чёрные овцы не столь ценны, как белые, и в далёкие тёмные времена даже считались знаком дьявола. Существует пословица there are black sheep in every flock (в любом стаде есть чёрные овцы), от которой, в свою очередь, пошло выражение there's a black sheep in every family (в любой семье есть чёрная овца). Natasha is the black sheep of the family. She's always in trouble with the police. — Наташа — позор семьи. Она постоянно попадает в полицию. -
