-नः) the eldest of the 11 sons of Dhṛitarāṣṭra and Gāndhārī. [From his early years he conceived a deep hatred for his cousins the Pāṇḍavas, but particularly Bhīma, and made every effort he could to compass their destruction. When his father pro- posed to make Yudhiṣṭhira heir-apparent, Duryodhana did not like the idea, as his father was the reigning sovereign, and prevailed upon his blind father to send the Pāṇḍavas away into exile. Vāraṇāvata was fixed upon as their abode, and under pretext of constructing a palatial building for their residence, Duryodhana caused a palace to be built mostly of lac, resin and other combustible materials, thereby hoping to see them all destroyed when they should enter it. But the Paṇḍavas were forewarned and they safely escaped. They then lived at Indraprastha, and Yudhiṣṭhira performed the Rājasuya sacrifice with great pomp and splendour. This event further excited the anger and jealousy of Duryodhana, who was already vexed to find that his plot for burning them up had signally failed, and he induced his father to invite the Pāṇḍavas to Hastināpura to play with dice (of which Yudhiṣṭhira was particularly fond). In that gambling-match, Duryodhana, who was ably assisted by his maternal uncle Śakuni, won from Yudhiṣṭhira everything that he staked, till the infatuated gambler staked himself, his brothers, and Draupadī herself, all of whom shared the same fate. Yudhiṣṭhira, as a condition of the wager, was forced to go to the forest with his wife and brothers, and to remain there for twelve years and to pass one addi- tional year incognito. But even this period, long as it was, expired, and after their return from exile both the Pāṇḍavas and Kauravas made great preparations for the inevitable struggle and the great Bhāratī war commenced. It lasted for eighteen days during which all the Kauravas, with most of their allies, were slain. It was on the last day of the war that Bhīma fought a duel with Duryodhana and smashed his thigh with his club.] मोघं तवेदं भुवि नामधेयं दुर्योधनेतीह कृतं पुरस्तात् न हीह दुर्योधनता तवास्ति पलायमानस्य रणं विहाय Mb.4.65.17.

     ♦ "Бог милостив: солдат у нас довольно, пороху много, пушку я вычистил. Авось дадим отпор Пугачёву..." - "А что за человек этот Пугачёв?" - спросила комендантша. Тут Иван Игнатьич заметил, что проговорился, и закусил язык. Но уже было поздно. Василиса Егоровна принудила его во всём признаться, дав ему слово не рассказывать о том никому (Пушкин 2). "The Lord is merciful: we have enough soldiers and plenty of powder, and I've cleaned out the cannon. With a little luck we'll drive back Pugachev...." "And what sort of a man is Pugachev?" asked the captain's wife. Ivan Ignatich now realized that he had let the cat out of the bag, and he bit his tongue. But it was too late. Vasilisa Egorovna, giving her word not to pass the secret to anyone, made him reveal the whole thing (2a).

     ♦ "Ты не у себя в Чегеме", - огрызнулся писарь, видимо, осмелев от выпитого. "Чтоб раздавить жабу, не обязательно ехать в Чегем", - сказал дядя Сандро и так посмотрел на писаря, что тот сразу же отрезвел и прикусил язык (Искандер 3). "You're not at home in Chegem," the clerk snarled, evidently made bold by drink. "I don't have to go to Chegem to squash a toad," Uncle Sandro said, with a look that instantly made the clerk sober up and hold his tongue (3a).

Rebrov could see that Lyalya was tense and worn out from her mother's hostility-this being the fourth day that her mother had given her the silent treatment. The situation would have resolved itself somehow, so he should have kept his mouth shut-but he lost his self-control (1a).

     ♦ Тут он и спохватился было, видя, что солгал вовсе напрасно и мог таким образом накликать на себя беду, но языка никак уже не мог придержать (Гоголь 3). Неге he realized that he had told quite an unnecessary lie which might get him into trouble but he was simply unable to restrain his tongue (3c).

• ПРИКУСЫВАТЬ/ПРИКУСИТЬ (ЗАКУСИТЬ) ЯЗЫК < ЯЗЫЧОК> coll

[VP; subj: human; usu. pfv past or imper]

=====

⇒ to fall silent suddenly or refrain from saying sth.:

- X прикусил язык≈ X bit (held, bridled etc) his tongue;

- X kept his mouth shut < dosed>;

- X bit back a remark.

     ♦ "Бог милостив: солдат у нас довольно, пороху много, пушку я вычистил. Авось дадим отпор Пугачёву..." - "А что за человек этот Пугачёв?" - спросила комендантша. Тут Иван Игнатьич заметил, что проговорился, и закусил язык. Но уже было поздно. Василиса Егоровна принудила его во всём признаться, дав ему слово не рассказывать о том никому (Пушкин 2). "The Lord is merciful: we have enough soldiers and plenty of powder, and I've cleaned out the cannon. With a little luck we'll drive back Pugachev...." "And what sort of a man is Pugachev?" asked the captain's wife. Ivan Ignatich now realized that he had let the cat out of the bag, and he bit his tongue. But it was too late. Vasilisa Egorovna, giving her word not to pass the secret to anyone, made him reveal the whole thing (2a).

     ♦ "Ты не у себя в Чегеме", - огрызнулся писарь, видимо, осмелев от выпитого. "Чтоб раздавить жабу, не обязательно ехать в Чегем", - сказал дядя Сандро и так посмотрел на писаря, что тот сразу же отрезвел и прикусил язык (Искандер 3). "You're not at home in Chegem," the clerk snarled, evidently made bold by drink. "I don't have to go to Chegem to squash a toad," Uncle Sandro said, with a look that instantly made the clerk sober up and hold his tongue (3a).

     ♦ Ребров видел, что Ляля накалена, изнемогает от материнской враждебности - тёща мучила её молчанием четвёртые сутки, чем-то это должно было разрешиться, надо было прикусить язык, но Ребров потерял равновесие (Трифонов 1). Rebrov could see that Lyalya was tense and worn out from her mother's hostility-this being the fourth day that her mother had given her the silent treatment. The situation would have resolved itself somehow, so he should have kept his mouth shut-but he lost his self-control (1a).

CAMINO DE SANTIAGO The Camino de Santiago is a medieval pilgrim route stretching from the Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela in northwest Spain, where tradition has it that the body of Saint James the Apostle (Spain's patron saint) is buried. Those who had made the long, dangerous journey returned proudly wearing on their hat or cloak the venera or concha (scallop shell) traditionally associated with this pilgrimage - Saint James' body had reportedly been found covered in scallops. Today this symbolic shell can still be seen all along the Camino de Santiago, carved on ancient buildings and painted on modern-day road signs marking the historic route for the benefit of tourists and pilgrims. In astronomy the Camino de Santiago is another name for the Vía Láctea (Milky Way), hence the title of Buñuel's famous satirical film about the route to Compostela.

CAMINO DE SANTIAGO

The Galician city of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain, traditionally held to be the burial site of the Apostle St James, was one of the most important Christian pilgrimage centres in Europe during the Middle Ages, second only to Rome. Countless pilgrims made the journey from different parts of Europe to Santiago along recognized pilgrimage routes. The main one crosses the north of Spain from the Pyrenees to Galicia and is known as the Camino de Santiago. Although its religious significance has declined, it has become a popular tourist route attracting a wide range of travellers: nature lovers on day trips, hikers and cyclists, and even latter-day pilgrims, whether solitary walkers or on package tours. Many of them avail themselves of the free or low-cost accommodation provided along the way by local councils and religious institutions.

20 Г-363

ХЛЕБНУТЬ (ХВАТИТЬ) ГОРЯ (ГОРЮ-ШКА, ЛИХА) coll VP subj: human to experience much hardship, misfortune in life
X хлебнул горя = X has had (seen) his share of suffering (grief)
X has had more than his share of trouble (hard luck) X has taken (been through) a lot X's lot has been hard X has had it rough (tough).
Впоследствии она сама попала за колючую проволоку, хлебнула горя, но то, как и почему она не простилась с отцом, которого больше не увидела, не могло не остаться пятном на её душе (Мандельштам 2). Later she wound up behind barbed wire herself and had her own share of suffering, but she never ceased to be troubled in her mind at not having said goodbye to her father, whom she never saw again (2a).

«В войну (мадам Бранд) попала в Германию, горя, я думаю, не пригубила, а хлебнула взахлёб» (Михайловская 1). "During the war she (Madame Brand) found herself in Germany, where, I think, she had her share of grief (1a).

Нас в этих ротах недаром смертниками звали. До одного выкашивало. Как я выжил? Как я выжил? Однако, вообрази, весь этот кровавый ад был счастьем по сравнению с ужасами концлагеря...» - «Да, брат, хлебнул ты горя» (Пастернак 1). They called our company the death squad. It was practically wiped out. How and why I survived, I don't know. And yet—would you believe it-all that utter hell was nothing, it was bliss compared to the horrors of the concentration camp...." "Yes, poor fellow. You've taken a lot" (1a).
