cold as charity

  • 1 cold as charity

    1) холодный как лёд, очень холодный

    ...the wind is as cold as charity. We are much more comfortable here; are we not? (A. Trollope, ‘Can You Forgive Her?’, ch. XLIII) —...ветер прямо ледяной. Здесь гораздо уютнее, не правда ли?

    It's cold as charity here, I'm quite frozen. — Ну и холодина, я весь промерз.

    2) неодобр. казённо-бездушный, чёрствый, равнодушный

    There appeared to be more staff than children, and as the children all paid some of the cost I wondered who ran this expensive home for whom. As all the children were under eight years old, and on no account were relations allowed near the place, nobody will ever find out. One thing is certain. I won't make my girlie go again. When a thing is as cold as charity, it can't get any colder. (J. Walsh, ‘Not Like This’, ‘My Girls’) — Обслуживающего персонала в этом благотворительном заведении было, вероятно, больше, чем детей, и поскольку за всех детей хотя бы частично вносили плату - а плата была высокая, - было неясно, для кого же все это устраивается: для детей или для обслуживающего персонала? А так как детей старше восьми лет там не было и родителям ни под каким видом не разрешалось даже появляться поблизости, то никто этого так и не узнает. Но ясно одно: я больше не отправлю туда свою дочурку. Нет ничего более холодного и бездушного, чем казенная благотворительность.
