Глагол to tear в значении "рвать, разорвать" обозначает нанесение повреждения чему-либо, сделанному из ткани или бумаги, не уточняя характера разрыва, в отличие от нижеследующих глаголов - to rip, to ladder, to be in shreds, to rip smth to shreds, to split и прилагательных - frayed, tattered. To rip - рвать, порвать, разодрать что-либо сильно и быстро: Stop pulling my dress, you'll rip it! Перестань тянуть мое платье, ты его разорвешь. Madge ripped the article out of the magazine and ran to show it to her husband. Мэдж вырвала статью из журнала и побежала показать ее мужу. To ladder - спустить петлю, случайно порвать что-либо, чтобы шов или петля спустились или разошлись: I've laddered my tights! У меня на колготках спустилась петля. There is a ladder in this pair of stockings. В этой паре чулок спустились петли. To shred, to rip smth to shreds - разорвать на мелкие кусочки: He handed his secretary a few letters and asked her to shred them. Он передал секретарю несколько писем и попросил разорвать их. The photo, the only evidence of the crime was shredded. Фотография, единственная улика преступления, была разорвана на мелкие кусочки. To split - разорваться, лопнуть, разойтись (о швах), лопнуть по шву: Peter's coat had split right up the back. Пиджак у Петра разорвался на спине по шву. These shoes are so old the convas his split. Эти туфли такие старые, что вся парусина оторвалась. Frayed - обтрепанный, оборванный на концах, особенно от того, что ткань долго находилась в носке: The jacket was a little frayed at the cuffs. У жакета немного обтрепались обшлага. She made her old jeans into shorts with frayed edges. Она сделала из своих старых джинсов шорты с бахромой. Tattered - в лохмотьях, особенно ткань или одежда, если они долго были в пользовании: A man in tattered blue overall was busy in the garage. Мужчина в грязной, во многих местах разорванной спецовке, возился в гараже. The old diary was yellowed and tattered, I could just make out only the initials AMG.
