10 (*)SHIT
в принципе, дерьмо (погрубее, на букву "г"), но со множеством значений, производных и оттенков. Мать американской неформальной лексики. Один из трех китов, на которых она держится (другие два - ass и fuck, см. статистику к слову ASS).Это слово должен знать каждый, его слышишь на каждом шагу в разных словосочетаниях, а иногда и в письменном виде встречаешь (см. цв. илл. (Фирменная реклама "Тасо Bell" — сети мексиканских пирожковых. Пример их howler — неприличной опечатки. Вместо "Теперь нанимаем на все смены (shifts)" нечаянно получилось "Теперь нанимаем всякое говно (shits)".)). Если вам случайно наехал на ногу асфальтовый каток, вы, будучи американцем, должны воскликнуть "Shit!". "Fuck!" тоже годится, но это гораздо, гораздо грубее, а "Shit!" можно (умеренно) и при детях употреблять.Shit используется для усиления и угрязнения речи там же где и "fuck". Эвфемизм для восклицаний - "shoot!" Еще один более мягкий синоним для shit - верите или нет, "caca". А часто shit можно заменить и вовсе приличным словом с тем же смыслом - stuff (см. STUFF).СУЩЕСТВИТЕЛЬНОЕ "shit" чаще всего используется в переносном смысле. Про какую-нибудь неопределенную дрянь спросят - what the shit is there?; заберите свое барахло будет - take you shit...; про проблему скажут - so much shit..., наркотик (и любую вещь вообще) можно просто называть - shit и т. д., см. рис. (Образец американского черного пиара: "Добро пожаловать, господа бандиты. Прокуратура округа Рипли - бесхребетный, ленивый кусок дерьма!" Понятно, что этот щит не прокуратура выставила).ГЛАГОЛ to shit в прямом смысле означает "испражняться". Фигуральных значений масса. To shit on - заложить кого-то, "накапать" на него, а просто "to shit (somebody)" - кого-то дразнить, "обсерать". О великий, могучий и трудно выучиваемый английский язык!ПРИЛАГАТЕЛЬНОЕ от этого слова тоже популярно. Shitty - позорный, вредный, гаденыш, засранец и вообще все дерьмовое, а если уж быть точным - сраное (например, в периоды депрессии, - наша жизнь или работа). Кстати, сетования на работу с использованием красочных эпитетов типа этого в США часты - но только вне работы.ВЫРАЖЕНИЯ с этим словом популярны и многочисленны.No shit?! — Ну да?! (С оттенком недоверия.)
To treat her like shit — расхожее высказывание, думается, уже понятное нашему читателю без перевода ( treat - обращаться с кем-то).
To know shit — ничего не знать.
S.O.L. = shit out of luck — ну, сильно не повезло ( luck - удача).
To scare shit out of... — крепко напугать.
Hot shit — впечатляющий.
Shithouse — туалет. По грубости равно нашему - сральник.
Shitlist — список врагов или другие "черные" списки.
Shitflow River — приводим это английское словосочетание специально для жителей Сестрорецка (малая родина одного из авторов, которому и сейчас не забыть родной речки-говнотечки).
Shitsky — дерьмо (о натуральном продукте или соответствующем человеке).
To shit a brick — сильно испугаться или быть потрясенным. Дословно - выкакать кирпич.
Shit for brains — полный идиот, дерьмо вместо мозгов.
Shit or get off the pot! — или делай, или брось этим заниматься вообще. Дословно: "Или сри, или вон с горшка!"
Shit-face — пьяный.
Shitload — полно, навалом.
Shit-kicker — а вот это просто фермер, работник сельскохозяйственного труда. Прозвище отражает характер этого труда, в совершенно буквальном смысле.
В качестве популярных обзываловок рекомендуем: shit, piece of shit (кусок сами знаете чего), shitass (см. ASS), shithead (head - голова), shithole (см. ASSHOLE). Можете поупражняться и сами, комбинируя с shit любое слово. Ваши неологизмы поймут! -
