7 damp

WET, DAMP, MOIST
Прилагательное wet имеет значение 'насквозь пропитанный влагой' и 'обильно покрытый влагой': wet clothes, wet linen, wet sponge, wet towel и wet hands (cheeks), wet pavements, grass wet with dew. Wet также означает 'невысохший, непросохший': wet paint, wet ink. Damp имеет значение 'влажный' и, в отличие от wet, подразумевает незначительную влажность: damp sheets 'влажные простыни' (после утюжки) в отличие от wet sheets 'мокрые простыни' (после стирки), damp sponge 'влажная (отжатая) губка' и wet sponge 'губка, мокрая насквозь'. Damp может переводиться на русский язык прилагательным 'сырой': damp weather, damp room (house). В ряде случаев damp имеет в виду влажность, вызывающую неприятные ощущения: damp shoes, damp clothes. Moist означает 'несухой, слегка влажный, увлажнившийся'. Так, moist hands (cheeks, eyes) соответствует русскому 'влажные руки (щеки, глаза)', в отличие от wet hands (cheeks, eyes) 'мокрые руки (щеки, глаза)'. В тех случаях, когда имеется в виду влажность, невоспринимаемая наощупь, употребляется moist, а не wet: moist air, moist wind, moist heat. Moist air, в отличие от damp air, предполагает очень незначительную степень влажности.

ADJ [clima] damp; [calor] humid; [ropa, pared] damp; [pelo] damp, wet; [labios, tierra, bizcocho] moist
HÚMEDO Para traducir el adjetivo húmedo en inglés hay que tener en cuenta la diferencia entre: damp, moist, humid y wet. ► Se traduce por damp cuando húmedo se utiliza para describir cosas que han estado mojadas y que todavía no se han secado del todo: No salgas con el pelo húmedo Don't go out with your hair damp ... el olor de la tierra húmeda...... the smell of damp earth... Pásele un trapo húmedo Wipe it with a damp cloth ► Se traduce por moist cuando queremos sugerir que el hecho de que esté o sea húmedo le da un carácter agradable o atractivo. El pastel estaba húmedo y esponjoso The cake was moist and smooth Hay que mantener las raíces húmedas The roots must be kept moist ► En contextos científicos se traduce por humid cuando se refiere a condiciones atmosféricas: ... el clima caluroso y húmedo de Chipre...... the hot and humid climate of Cyprus... ► También referido al tiempo atmosférico, pero en un lenguaje menos científico, lo traducimos por wet cuando se refiere a un tiempo lluvioso: Hemos tenido un verano muy húmedo We've had a very wet summer

WET, DAMP, MOIST
Прилагательное wet имеет значение 'насквозь пропитанный влагой' и 'обильно покрытый влагой': wet clothes, wet linen, wet sponge, wet towel и wet hands (cheeks), wet pavements, grass wet with dew. Wet также означает 'невысохший, непросохший': wet paint, wet ink. Damp имеет значение 'влажный' и, в отличие от wet, подразумевает незначительную влажность: damp sheets 'влажные простыни' (после утюжки) в отличие от wet sheets 'мокрые простыни' (после стирки), damp sponge 'влажная (отжатая) губка' и wet sponge 'губка, мокрая насквозь'. Damp может переводиться на русский язык прилагательным 'сырой': damp weather, damp room (house). В ряде случаев damp имеет в виду влажность, вызывающую неприятные ощущения: damp shoes, damp clothes. Moist означает 'несухой, слегка влажный, увлажнившийся'. Так, moist hands (cheeks, eyes) соответствует русскому 'влажные руки (щеки, глаза)', в отличие от wet hands (cheeks, eyes) 'мокрые руки (щеки, глаза)'. В тех случаях, когда имеется в виду влажность, невоспринимаемая наощупь, употребляется moist, а не wet: moist air, moist wind, moist heat. Moist air, в отличие от damp air, предполагает очень незначительную степень влажности.
