He оправдывайся! - Don't try to justify yourselfl/Don't try to make excuses!с)Существует также целая категория особых глаголов, у которых несовершенный вид указывает на состояние, которое является результатом завершенного действия и передается совершенным видом.Я «понимаю» is the result of «я понял», and note that English "I understand" translates them both. The formal pair «разобраться/разбираться» are exactly the same; the verb in «я разобрался в этом» is an achievement with the change-of-state meaning characteristic of perfectives, while the verb in «я разбираюсь в этом» signals the state resulting from the achievement. They may both be translated as / understand, but the former means / have figured out (come to understand), while the latter means I understand (as a result of having figured out). These verbs belong to a very large group of perfectives whose change of state is inceptive, whose imperfectives denote the new, resulting state: «понял, понимаю, поверил, верю, понравиться, нравиться».14.

(Искандер 3). Admittedly, the listener usually turned a deaf ear to the remark about the steepness of the bank (that the miller had to climb up with his four-hundred-pound load) (3a).«Ты же знаешь, твой Гриша никогда ничего нам не рассказывает о своих делах!» В другой раз Ляля пропустила бы фразу мимо ушей, сочла бы её нормальной, но теперь, когда она едва сдерживалась от того, чтобы не накричать на мать, она не могла смолчать и ответила тоже с нажимом: «Но можно и самой поинтересоваться, правда же?» (Трифонов 1). "You ought to know by now that your Grisha never tells us anything about his work!" Normally Lyalya wouldn't have paid any attention to such a remark, considering it merely normal. But on this occasion, when she could barely keep from screaming at her mother, she simply could not keep quiet and replied in an equally aggressive tone, "But you could at least express an interest, couldn't you?" (1a).Он (Ефим) бросил трубку, но через минуту поднял её снова. «Извини, я погорячился», - сказал он Баранову. «Бывает, - сказал тот великодушно. - Кстати, в поликлинике работает новый психиатр...» Ефим пропустил подковырку мимо ушей и спросил, что именно Баранову известно о шапках (Войнович 6). Не (Yefim) slammed down the receiver, but a minute later picked it up again and dialed Kostya (Baranov). "Sorry I blew up." "Nerves. I understand," Kostya said magnanimously. "Incidentally, the clinic has a new psychiatrist...." Yefim let the dig pass and asked what, exactly, Kostya knew about the hats (6a).Я усомнился в его компетенции, когда он (философ) сказал мне, что во всяком случае советские люди никогда не знали голода. Я спросил его, слышал ли он что-нибудь о голоде на Украине, стоившем жизни нескольким миллионам людей, или в блокадном Ленинграде... Он пропустил сказанное мною мимо ушей и продолжал спорить (Войнович 1)....I doubted his (the philosopher's) competence when he told me that in any case Soviet people had never known hunger. I asked him if he had ever heard of the famine in the Ukraine which cost several million people their lives or of the siege of Leningrad....What I said went in one ear and out the other, and he continued to argue (1a).
