WAYS OF DOING THINGS:

Значение глагола to mention в значении "упомянуть" может быть конкретизировано не указывая какие-либо подробности характера упоминаемого или характера самого действия. Такая конкретизация, при общем значении to mention, передается такими глаголами, как to bring up, to touch on, to raise, to broach.

To refer to smth - "отослать к чему-либо", особенно без специального уточнения на что или кого дана отсылка: though she did not mention any names, everyone knew them хотя она не упомянула никаких имён, не знали кого она имела в виду; I apologized for my bad behaviour and the matter was never referred to again я извинился за своё плохое поведение, и это никогда больше не упоминалось; I think what Mary was referring to was clear я думал было ясно на что Мэри ссылалась.

To allude to - "упомянуть что-либо или кого-либо косвенным образом, намекнуть": when he spoke of the major problem I assumed that he was alluding to out scheme когда он говорил об основных проблемах, я предположил, что он намекал/имел в виду наш проект; no one ever mentioned the raid, and Pam only alluded to it in time of crisis никто никогда прямо не упоминал этого налёта, и Пэм в критические минуты только намекал на него.

To touch on - "затронуть или коснуться чего-либо, не останавливаясь на этом вопросе подробно": in my last lecture I touched on a number of important social problems which I am now going to examine in some detail в своей прошлой лекции, я коснулся ряда важных проблем, которые собираюсь подробно осветить сегодня.

To bring up - "поднять какой-либо вопрос для дальнейшего обсуждения": she wished she had never brought up the subject of money она сожалела, что подняла вопрос о деньгах; is there anything else you want to bring up before we end the meeting? Вы хотите поднять ещё какой-либо вопрос до конца собрания?

To raise - "поднять вопрос, начать разговор о чем-либо, о чем не было речи и никто об этом не думал": a number of new and important issues were raised at the conference на конференции были подняты новые важные проблемы; the matter of whether or not the royal family should pay taxes first raised in the article in the Times вопрос о том, должна ли королевская семья облагаться налогами/платить налоги был впервые поднят в статье в газете Таймс.

To broach (the matter, the question) - "упомянуть о чем-либо, что может вызвать смущение или может быть неприятным или вызвать спор": he decided not to broach the subject of divorce until his wife had recovered from her illness он решил не поднимать вопроса о разводе до выздоровления жены; Ella is missing school, but every time I tried to broach the matter with her, she talks back Элла пропускает занятия в школе, но каждый раз, когда я пытаюсь с ней об этом поговорить, она огрызается
