•CHOICE OF WORDS:(1.) Русским "не хватать, не иметь в достаточном количестве" соответствуют в английском языке глагол to lack ( smth), существительное lack (of smth) и сочетание с прилагательными lacking и short: to be lacking (in smth), to be short (of smth). (2.) Глагол to lack ( smth), как правило, не употребляется в формах Continuous. Выражения to lack smth, lack of smth и lacking in smth чаще употребляются с названиями свойств, качеств и другими существительными абстрактного характера: to lack confidence (interest experience, knowledge, courage, tact) не иметь достаточной уверенности (достаточного интереса, опыта, знания, мужества, такта); the child lacks confidence and needs constant encouraging ребенку не хватает уверенности в себе и его все время надо подбадривать; these buildings are lacking in style в этих зданиях не выдержан стиль; she showed a complete lack of interest она не проявила никакого интереса (проявила полное отсутствие интереса); the plant died for/through lack of sun and water растение погибло из-за недостатка воды и солнца. Словосочетания с глаголом to lack, существительным lack и прилагательным lacking эмоционально и оценочно нейтральны и указывают только на сам факт отсутствия или недостаточного количества чего-либо. В отличие от них, словосочетание to be short of smth имеет отрицательно оценочный компонент и подчеркивает недостаточность чего-либо для достижения желаемого или необходимого результата. (3.) Оборот to be short of smth носит более разговорный характер: we are rather short of money at present у нас сейчас туго с деньгами; I am short of time у меня сейчас крайне мало времени. (4.) Выражение to go short of smth подчеркивает временное состояние, период времени, в течение которого испытывается недостаток чего-либо: the expedition was well equipped and never went short of either fuel or food экспедиция была хорошо обеспечена и не испытывала недостатка ни в топливе, ни в продуктах питания. Оборот to run short of smth указывает на приближение времени, когда что-либо подойдет к концу: we are running short of supplies, we'd better get some more у нас запасы на исходе/подходят к концу -
