3 the end of the world
конец света, светопреставлениеThere had been a brief thunderstorm at dawn that morning, with terrifying crashes of lightning that sounded as if the end of the world came at any moment. (E. Caldwell, ‘Claudelle Inglish’, ch. I) — На рассвете была короткая гроза, гром гремел так, словно наступил конец света.
Anyway, it's not the end of the world, Gretta. We'll find a way out. In a short time all this will be behind us and forgotten. (E. Caldwell, ‘Gretta’, part II, ch. X) — В конце концов, все это еще не конец жизни, Гретта. Мы найдем выход из положения, и твое прошлое будет забыто.
A thunderstorm seemed imminent... The light faded, and a lurid premature darkness came over the scene. ‘It's like the end of the world,’ a woman said in the road. (I. Murdoch, ‘The Sandcastle’, ch. 11) — Гроза надвигалась... Свет померк, зловещая, неурочная тьма опустилась на землю. - Прямо светопреставление, - сказал женский голос на дороге.
