9 assume airs

( assume (give oneself или put on) airs)

напускать на себя важность, важничать; зазнаваться, высокомерно, заносчиво держать себя; ≈ задирать нос [этим. фр. se donner des airs]

Who were the aristocracy, to give themselves airs? Jackanapes! Half of 'em descendants of those who had got what they had by robbery or jobbery! (J. Galsworthy, ‘The Silver Spoon’, part I, ch.VI) — Кто они, эти аристократы? Какое право имеют напускать на себя важность? Нахалы! Многие из них потомки тех, кто поднялся на высоту только благодаря грабежам и спекуляции.

Gertie: "Even when you're begging my pardon you put on airs. You ask me to forgive you as if you was doing me a favour." (W. S. Maugham, ‘The Land of Promise’, act II) — Герти: "Ты, даже когда просишь прощения, держишься высокомерно. Извиняешься с таким видом, будто делаешь мне одолжение."

He was so much afraid of others putting on airs with him that, in order as it were to get in first, he put on such airs as to make everyone think him insufferably conceited. (W. S. Maugham, ‘Complete Short Stories’, ‘The Outstation’) — От страха, что другие будут задирать перед ним нос, от желания опередить их, он сам до того заважничал, что все считали его нестерпимо самонадеянным.

10 cock of the roost

(cock of the roost (тж. cock of the walk))

1) важная персона; местный заправила (диал. cock of the midden) [walk в выражении cock of the walk означает помещение, где содержится бойцовый петух перед боем]

The cock of the roost sits aloft like Jupiter on an unshareable seat... (O. Henry, ‘The Four Million’) — Местный заправила держится гордо, как Юпитер, нераздельно правящий миром...

‘Well, me [= my] lad... You're gonna [= going to] come out of that beautiful dream and find that You're nowhere near bein' cock of the midden yet.’ (S. Chaplin, ‘The Day of the Sardine’, ch. XI) — Так вот, мой мальчик... Ты пробудишься от своего приятного сна и увидишь, что напрасно считал себя петухом на навозной куче.

‘You think You're the cock o'the walk,’ she said, implying: ‘But I'll tame you, you see if I don't.’ (A. Sillitoe, ‘Saturday Night and Sunday Morning’, part II, ch. XV) — - Вы воображаете себя первым кавалером здесь, - сказала Дорин, имея в виду: "Вот увидите, как я вас укрощу"

2) хозяин положения

Wherever he functioned Nicolas was certainly cock of the walk. (J. Galsworthy, ‘On Forsyte 'Change’, ‘Nicolas-Rex’) — Где бы Николас ни действовал, всюду он был хозяином положения.

Of course Monsignor Montanelli will give himself airs; he was quiet enough under His Holiness the late Pope, but he's cock of the walk now. (E. L. Voynich, ‘The Gadfly’, part III, ch. IV) — Несомненно, монсиньор Монтанелли покажет еще себя. При его святейшестве покойном папе он держался на заднем плане, а теперь стал самой что ни на есть главной фигурой.

I'm the cock or the roost around here when it comes to holding this money. (E. Caldwell, ‘Tragic Ground’, ch. XI) — Когда дело в здешних местах доходит до денег, то распоряжаюсь я.
