1 the big E
n BrE slI had thought it all out and decided it was time for Brian to be given the big E, the elbow — Я все обдумала и решила, что пора дать Брайану "отлуп"
I felt cross that Brian would go away thinking he had given me the big E instead of the other way round — Я была зла, потому что Брайан мог подумать, что это он бросил меня, а не наоборот

20 the big time
n sl1)Once he'd had a taste of the big time he's not about to stop — Почувствовав вкус славы, он не остановится ни перед чем
When the pressure in the big time got to be too much, the guy simply retired — Когда бремя славы стало для него непосильным, он просто ушел
He didn't get into the big time until four years ago — Он прорвался в большой спорт лишь четыре года назад
2) AmEGuess who's shooting big time? — Знаешь, кто колется героином?
Once you hit big time you're way hooked — Если ты стал ширяться героином, то ты действительно конченный человек
