  • 4 наделать дел

    тж. наделать делов
    прост.
    do a lot of silly things; make a stir; cause trouble; commit blunders; cf. there's the devil to pay; one has been and done it!; one got smb. into a fix

    - Что молчишь, кикимора? - заговорил Гомозов со злобой и презрением. - Как теперь я буду? Наделала делов и молчишь? (М. Горький, Скуки ради) — 'Why don't you say something, you scarecrow?' said Gomozov, angry and contemptuous. 'What am I to do now? You got me into this fix, and now you have nothing to say?'

    - Смотри-ка, что-то ничего впереди не видать!.. Никак потеряли связь с отрядом!.. Доложили Акинфиеву. - Эх, вороны! Наделали делов!.. - выругался мичман. (А. Степанов, Порт-Артур) — 'Look! There's nothing ahead of us! We've lost the others!'... One of them went to report to Akinfiyev. 'You scarecrows! Now you've done it!' the Midshipman exclaimed.

    Он висел, держась одной рукой за борт, спиной к движению, а другой рукой яростно дёргая и поворачивая штангу, а в это время машина набирала ход. Если бы он свалился случайно, машина пошла бы дальше и, пожалуй, наделала бы делов. (Г. Владимов, Большая руда) — He hung there by one hand with his back to the other trucks, while with his free hand he tugged and turned the rod as the MAZ gathered speed. If he had suddenly lost his grip, the truck would have continued on its way, and there probably would have been the devil to pay.
