The train is about to start. — Поезд сейчас тронется.
•CHOICE OF WORDS:(1.) Русские наречия степени около, приблизительно, примерно, почти передаются с некоторым различием в значении английскими наречиями about, around, nearly, almost. Когда речь идет о движении в пространстве или во времени или о том, что поддается измерению, about обозначает: a little more or less than больше или меньше обозначенного предмета или предела; it is about six сейчас около шести/приблизительно шесть - может значить без нескольких минут шесть или несколько минут седьмого. Almost указывает на то, что предел или предмет не достигнут, но, что до этого остается очень мало времени или расстояния: almost/about - very close to the point очень близко к желаемому. Nearly также указывает на некоторое расстояние от желаемого предела: nearly/about/not quite/not yet completely - указывает на то, что желаемый предел не достигнут. Ho almost обычно обозначает более близкую точку во времени или пространстве, чем nearly: it is about/almost/nearly six o'clock (lunch, time, two miles away, bed time) сейчас около шест /почти шесть/скоро шесть (скоро время ленча, около двух миль отсюда, пора идти спать) ср. he is about sixty ему примерно шестьдесят/около шестидесяти; he is nearly sixty ему к шестидесяти/скоро шестьдесят. Nearly дальше от обозначенной точки времени или пространства, чем almost. (2.) Наречия и наречные обороты приблизительности about, around, almost, nearly, more than, less than обычно стоят перед определяемым словом: he counted more than ten policemen in the crowd он насчитал более десяти полицейских в толпе. Наречные обороты or more, or less, or so обычно стоят после определяемого слова: he stayed there for a week or so (or more, or less).II [ə'baut] prpупотребляется при обозначении:1) направления речи, мысли - о, об, относительно, насчёт, про- book about smth, smb- read about smth, smb2) движения в пределах ограниченного пространства - по, везде, кругом, неподалёку- walk about the room- run about the garden3) при себе, с собой4) насчёт, о5) в•CHOICE OF WORDS:В значении 1. наряду с about могут употребляться предлоги on, of, concerning с одними и теми же существительными или глаголами. Однако они различаются стилистически и передают разные ситуации: about и of употребляются в бытовых ситуациях при сообщениях общего характера и обычно сочетаются с глаголами и существительными нейтральной лексики: to speak about/of money, to talk abou/oft the vacations, to think about/of the children. Предлоги concerning и on отличается от about и of более формальным характером, и сочетаются со словами более официального стиля: to deliver a report on ecology зачитать доклад по вопросам экологии; research concerning behavioural patterns исследование, касающееся поведенческих моделей. Предлог on предполагает обдуманный, формальный характер информации, более или менее академическую форму изложения и употребляется глаголами и существительными типа report, research, lecture: a book (a lecture, a film) on art книга (лекция, фильм) по искусству; to speak on literature говорить на литературные темы. Поэтому on не употребляется с глаголами ярко выраженной бытовой семантики типа to chat, to quarrel, etc. -

70 throw one's weight about
разг.вызывающе, заносчиво держаться; важничать, задаваться; помыкать кем-л.Who the hell gave you the right to throw your weight about and attempt to tell experienced actors what to do and what not to do? (N. Coward, ‘Collected Short Stories’, ‘Star Quality’) — Кто, черт побери, дал вам право помыкать актерами, которые столько лет отдали сцене, и учить их, что им надо делать и что не надо!
‘Look, Herbert,’ she said quietly, ‘I talk a lot - and they say I throw my weight about and lay down the law - but I don't suppose I'm much good really.’ (J. B. Priestley, ‘Three Men in New Suits’, ch. 6) — - Слушайте, Герберт, - тихо сказала девушка, - я много болтаю, про меня говорят, что я невесть что о себе воображаю и все критикую. А на самом деле - грош мне цена.
She was in here the other day, throwing her weight about as if she was Hedy Lamarr and Katharine Herburn rolled into one. (J. Lindsay, ‘Betrayed Spring’, ch. II) — Она была здесь на днях и держалась так заносчиво, что можно было подумать - это Хеди Ламарр и Кэтрин Хепберн вместе взятые.

non avrebbe dovuto accettare, he shouldn't have accepted; non oso telefonargli, I daren't phone him; non volete riposarvi un po'?, don't you want to rest a while?; non permetterò che la trattino in quel modo, I won't let them treat her like that; non dirlo, don't say it; non parliamone, let's not talk about it; non lavora in quella ditta, he doesn't work for that firm; non hanno voluto ascoltarmi, they wouldn't listen to me; non parlò per tutto il giorno, he did not speak all day; è meglio non indagare, we'd better not go into it; non vedendolo arrivare, cominciai a preoccuparmi, not seeing him arrive, I began to get worried // In frasi negative, come rafforzativo di un'altra negazione: non c'era nessuno, there wasn't anybody; non so nulla, I don't know anything; non hanno avuto nessuna notizia, they haven't had any news; non ne ho parlato con nessuno, I haven't spoken to anyone about it; non ha bevuto niente, he didn't drink anything;

non ci capisco un'acca!, I can't understand a word!; non vado mai a teatro, I never go to the theatre; non l'ho mai visto, I've never seen him; non era mai stato così felice, he had never been so happy ∙ Come si nota dagli esempi, l'avv. not non si usa in ingl. in presenza di un'altra negazione2 (in frasi interrogative, per lo più retoriche): non l'avevi detto proprio tu?, wasn't it you who said it?; chi non accetterebbe una simile proposta?, who wouldn't accept such an offer?; non avresti dovuto partire stasera?, shouldn't you have left this evening?; mi chiedo se non sarebbe stato meglio rinunciare, I wonder whether it wouldn't have been better to give up3 (come negazione di un agg. o avv. per affermare un concetto negandone l'opposto): non è improbabile, it's possible; è un'impresa non facile, it's a hard task; un uomo non privo di talento, a man not without talent; ha lavorato non poco per farsi una posizione, he worked hard to get on; non pochi la pensano come me, lots of people think the way I do; non sarà male ripeterlo, it won't do any harm to repeat it; non sempre si può fare quello che si vuole, you can't always do as you like; non senza fatica, not without effort; non del tutto, non completamente, not completely ∙ Come si nota dagli esempi, in questo caso la negazione è spesso espressa usando l'agg. o l'avv. di significato opposto4 (seguito da un compar.) no, not: doveva avere non più di vent'anni, he couldn't have been more than twenty; saranno stati non meno di mille, there must have been no fewer than a thousand; non più tardi di ieri, no later than yesterday; arriveremo non prima delle otto, we shall arrive not before eight o'clock;

quanto non ho fatto per lui!, what I've done for him!◆ FRASEOLOGIA: dottore o non dottore, è un ignorante, he's an ignoramus, whether he's got a degree or not // non che io ci creda, ma..., not that I believe it, but... // che è che non è, all of a sudden // non c'è di che, ( formula di cortesia in risposta a un ringraziamento) not at all, you're welcome.* * *[non]1. avv1) notnon sono inglesi — they are not o aren't English

Note:Generalmente, l'avverbio non ha il suo equivalente diretto nell'inglese not. Si ricordi tuttavia che la frase inglese non ammette una doppia negazione, e che quindi non può essere assorbito da un pronome o da un avverbio negativo: non mi conosce nessuno = nobody knows me; non ci vediamo mai = we never meet. A sua volta, diversamente dall'italiano, l'uso di not in frase negativa impone l'uso di un ausiliare se già non ne è presente uno nella frase. - La forma contratta di not, ossia n't, si lega al verbo ausiliare precedente: non l'ho vista = I haven't seen her; non è qui = she isn't here; non è potuta venire = she couldn't come; si ricordino le particolari forme contratte negative di will, shall e can, cioè won't, shan't e can't.
