4 край
Существительное край в значении 'грань, кромка и т. д.' передается на английский язык словами edge, brim, rim, brink и verge. Edge имеет в виду край поверхности, наиболее удаленный от середины: the river's edge, the edge of a lake. Edge обозначает также прямую линию, образованную пересекающимися плоскостями: край стола (стула, ящика) – edge of a table (chair, box). Brim и rim относятся к предметам, имеющим закругленную или изогнутую форму, причем brim обозначает верхний край полого сосуда (чашки, миски, стакана и пр.), a rim – наружный край любого предмета указанной формы и может передаваться словами обод, ободок: стакан, полный до краев – glass full to the brim, наружный край (обод) колеса – rim of a wheel, наружный край луны – rim of the moon. Brink и verge совпадают в метафорическом значении 'крайняя ступень, грань': на краю (грани) разорения – on the brink of ruin и on the verge of ruin, на грани войны – on the brink of war (отсюда brinkmanship 'политика на грани войны'). В буквальном смысле brink обозначает обрывистый край пропасти или ямы: на краю пропасти – on the brink of a precipice, на краю могилы – on the brink of the grave. (Ср. river's brink 'край берега, резко обрывающегося к воде' и river's rim 'край изогнутого пологого берега'). Verge в буквальном значении обычно относится к поверхности, имеющей большую протяженность – verge of the sky.Трудности английского языка (лексический справочник). Русско-английский словарь > край
