2 mock
Это слово появилось ещё в XVI в., означая что-либо нереальное, придуманное. Таким образом, a mock examination, a mock battle - тренировочный экзамен, учебный бой в период манёвров; a mock-Tudor mansion - особняк в псевдотюдоровском стиле; a mock-Swedish accent, fluent mock-Welsh - поддельный шведский акцент, беглый псевдоуэльский язык. Слово mock-Latin означает звучащие как девиз псевдолатинские фразы, юмористический эффект которых подчёркивается следующим тут же «переводом»: Non illegitimus carborundum — Don't let the bastards grind you down (Не разрешай подлецам унижать тебя); Sic biscuitus disintegrat — That's the way the cookie crumbles (Такова жизнь. букв. — так крошится печенье).
