[Несчастливцев:] Не могу же я с тобой за версту разговаривать (Островский 7). [V.:] Now what is it I can do for you, sir? [N.:] I can't talk to you standing a mile away (7c).2. за версту видно, слышно, тянет, пахнет и т.п. (sth. can be seen, heard, smelled etc) for a relatively great distance:- for miles.♦ Дернула же меня нелёгкая ещё обшить телогрейку у ворота этой драной кошкой! За версту видать вчерашнюю каторжанку (Гинзбург 2). It must have been the devil's prompting that caused me to sew that strip of moulting cat fur onto the collar of my jacket! Anybody could see from a mile away that I was an ex-convict (2a).♦ "Вот эдакая какая-нибудь глупость, какая-нибудь пошлейшая мелочь, весь замысел может испортить! Да, слишком приметная шляпа... Смешная, потому и приметная... К моим лохмотьям непременно нужна фуражка, хотя бы старый блин какой-нибудь, а не этот урод. Никто таких не носит, за версту заметят, запомнят..." (Достоевский 3). "Some such idiocy as this, some incredibly trivial detail can ruin the whole plan! Yes, a hat that's too conspicuous...Ridiculous and therefore conspicuous...My rags definitely call for a cap, no matter how old and flat, but not this monstrosity. Nobody wears them, it would be seen a mile off and remembered..." (3a).♦...Вспоминалась ему [Гипатову] первая практика - в горах, на строительстве рудника, куда Назаренко не поехал, достав справку о временной нетрудоспособности в связи с гипотонией. Это Гипатов помнил точно; они ещё все смеялись...: живой гипотоник ходил по институту и жаловался на головные боли, а от него за версту несло водкой и духами (Семёнов 1).... Не [Gipatov] recalled their first practice trip - to the mountains where a mine was being built - on which Nazaryenko did not go, having obtained a certificate to say he was temporarily excused from work on the grounds of low blood pressure.. Gipatov remembered this precisely; they had all laughed about it...: here was a living specimen of low blood pressure walking about the Institute and complaining of headaches, while the smell of vodka and lotion about him carried for miles (1a).—————← " Верста" is an old Russian unit of length, about 1.06 km, that was used prior to the introduction of the metric system.Большой русско-английский фразеологический словарь > за версту
