8 OLD
старый. Производных масса, как и в русском.(*)
Old bat — старая летучая мышь (напомним - США страна южная, и летучих мышей там полно). Это обзываловка для противной старухи, как у нас - старая крыса (грымза, карга).(*)
Old fart (gaffer) — "старпер".(*)
Old poop — старая какашка.(*)
Old goat (cocker) — старый козел (кобель). Три последние выражения - одного класса.Но, естественно, не все старое - плохо и неприлично.Old boy (old boy network) — система старых связей, взаимной поддержки однокашников. Она остается со студенческих и даже школьных времен и в жизни реально помогает. Вот почему так важно, если человек думает работать в стране, в этой же стране получать образование - не только и не столько из-за качества американских университетов.
Old buddy — старина. Используется как обращение, чаще на юге США.
Old coot — это просто дурачок.
Old-timer — старик - приличное не обидное выражение. В Америке они большей частью держатся молодцом, как например эти музыканты (см. цв. илл.
(Old-timers (old farts) — старичье (старперы), так молодежь их и называет (как, кстати, и переваливших за пятьдесят авторов этой книги). На фото — типичные, целый ансамбль. Настроены очень патриотично, работают, пока хватает сил. Пели, кстати, неплохо.)). Но кто-то запросто может и таких назвать (*) old farts. Дело вкуса и воспитанности.Old man, old lady — вполне уважительные, широко используемые слова, обозначающие мужа (жену), отца (мать), в зависимости от контекста.

14 Eldred Jonas
сущ.; собст.; SK, DT 4Главарь банды Больших охотников за гробами. Родом из Гилеада, обучался, чтобы стать стрелком, но провалил своё последнее испытание и был изгнан на запад своим наставником Фардо, отцом Корта.см. Big Coffin Hunters, CortHe started up the stairs, chuckling a little, his limp quite pronounced—it got worse late at night. It was a limp Roland’s old teacher, Cort, might have recognized, for Cort had seen the blow which caused it. Cort’s own father had dealt it with an ironwood club, breaking Eldred Jonas’s leg in the yard behind the Great Hall of Gilead before taking the boy’s weapon and sending him west, gunless, into exile. — Он начал подниматься по лестнице, похохатывая, заметно прихрамывая… по ночам хромота проявлялась сильнее. Корт, старый учитель Роланда, узнал бы эту хромоту, ибо Корт видел удар, после которого Джонас охромел на всю жизнь. А нанес его отец Корта палкой из железного дерева, сломав ногу Элдреда Джонаса на лужайке за Большим залом Гилеада, перед тем как забрать оружие мальчика и отослать его на запад, без оружия, в изгнание. (ТБ 4)
“Jonas is the leader?” / “Aye. He limps, has hair that falls to his shoulders pretty as any girl’s, and the quavery voice of an old gaffer who spends his days polishing the chimney-corner… but I think he’s the most dangerous of the three all the same. I’d guess these three have forgot more about helling than you and yer friends will ever learn.” — Джонас – главный? / – Да. Он хромает, волосы падают на плечи, как у женщины, голос дрожит, как у старика… но я думаю, он опаснее остальных. Я полагаю, за этой троицей числится многое из того, что ты и твои друзья даже представить себе не можете. (ТБ 4)
Предположительно Джонас какое-то время следовал культу Мэнни и даже путешествовал с ними между мирами.Reynolds said nothing. He often didn’t understand Jonas, but he had been riding with him since the age of fifteen, and knew it was usually better not to ask for enlightenment. If you did, you were apt to end up listening to a cult-manni lecture about the other worlds the old buzzard had visited through what he called “the special doors.” As far as Reynolds was concerned, there were enough ordinary doors in the world to keep him busy. — Рейнолдс предпочел промолчать. Он часто не понимал Джонаса, но сопровождал его с пятнадцати лет и знал, что дополнительных вопросов лучше не задавать. Потому что вопросы эти могли закончиться выслушиванием длинной лекции о других мирах, которые этот старикан посетил, проникнув через, как он говорил, “особые двери”. По разумению Рейнолдса, ему до конца жизни хватило бы и обычных дверей, недостатка которых в мире не ощущалось. (ТБ 4)
