ASSOCIATIONS AND IMAGERY:

Любовь в английском сознании воспринимается как слабость, как падение куда-либо. Впечатление, которое производит любимый человек, подобно удару или нокауту, что видно из следующих выражений: Just looking at him makes me go weak at the knees. Один взгляд на него вызывает у меня слабость в ногах. /От одного взгляда на него у меня колени дрожат. I fell for Molly in a big way. Я серьезно втюрился в Молли. Do you remember the first time you fell in love. Ты помнишь, когда/как ты влюбился в первый раз? I'd never met anyone like Jack - he just swept me off my feet. Я никогда не встречала такого человека как Джек - он меня просто сразил наповал. She has a crush on him. Она втюрилась в него. I was bowled over by his charm and good looks. Я была просто сражена его красотой и обаянием. Anyone can see they are head over heels in love. Любому видно, что они по уши влюблены. That girl is an absolute knock out. Эта девчонка полный отпад. He's drop-dead gorgeous. Он убийственно красив. He's always had a bit of a weakness for brunettes. Он всегда был неравнодушен к брюнеткам. /У него слабость к брюнеткам. Ассоциации также могут быть связаны с состоянием невмеяемости: He is mad about her. Он по ней с ума сходит. It's surprising but dad is crazy about Mom. Удивительно, но мой отец до сих пор с ума сходит по маме/безумно влюблен в маму. Сексуальная любовь ассоциируется с огнем или жаром: I bumped into an old flame yesterday. Вчера я столкнулся со своей бывшей пассией. It was a fiery passionate relationship. Мы оба сгорали от страсти. His eyes burned with desire. В глазах его горел огонь желания. His touch inflamed her senses. От его прикосновения ее бросило в жар. She gave him a smouldering look. Она бросила не него испепеляющий взгляд. /От ее взгляда от него буквально дым пошел. The movie includes some steamy sex scenes. В этом фильме есть несколько весьма страстных сексуальных сцен/таких сцен, что дым коромыслом. Sare felt herself melting into his arms. Сара почувствовала, что просто тает в его объятиях

16 for better for worse

( for better (or) for worse)

в счастье и несчастье, на радость и горе [выражение for better for worse взято из церковной службы при совершении бракосочетания]

He... learned that love is not all pleasure, but can be agony and heartache, martyrdom and sacrifice. He learned what the clergyman was talking about in the marriage service: ‘For better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish till death us do part.’ (U. Sinclair, ‘World's End’, ch.14) — Ланни... узнал, что любовь - это не только счастье, но и горькая мука, самоотречение и боль. Он понял, что значат слова священника, произносимые во время венчания: "На радость и горе, в богатстве и бедности, в здоровье и немощи любить и лелеять, пока смерть не разлучит"

Ethel: "...I married Howard. I took him for better, for worse." (W. S. Maugham, ‘For Services Rendered’, act 3) — Этель: "...Я вышла замуж за Хауарда, чтобы делить вместе с ним и радость и горе."

Madame had prepared a sort of wedding cake for the occasion and it was washed down with wine by mule drivers and soldiers who sang love songs for all the world like a grand opera chorus. (U. Sinclair, ‘World's End’, ch. 12) — Хозяйка испекла нечто вроде свадебного пирога; погонщики мулов и солдаты запивали его вином и пели песни, соответствующие случаю, с такой экспрессией, что могли заткнуть за пояс даже оперный хор.

разг.

(for the love of God (Heaven, Mike или Pete))

≈ ради бога!, видит бог!; чёрт возьми!

Don't repeat a word of this, Smeeth, for the love of Mike! (J. B. Priestley, ‘Angel Pavement’, ch. IX) — Но, ради бога. Смит, никому об этом ни слова!

‘What is this?’ demanded his brother... ‘Oh - for the love of Pete!’ cried the Major jumping up. ‘Can't a man have a little private conversation-?’ (J. B. Priestley, ‘Festival’, part II, ch. 3) — - Чем это вы тут занимаетесь? - спросил брат майора... - Фу ты, черт! - воскликнул майор, вскакивая. - Неужели нельзя поговорить с человеком без постороннего вмешательства?

‘Mr. Casey isn't stirring, Ma.’ ‘Then for the love of God go and rouse him,’ her mother screamed back. ‘Tell him it's eleven o'clock. He'll be sacked out of his office.’ (J. Plunkett, ‘The Trusting and the Maimed’, ‘The Trusting and the Maimed’) — - Мистер Кейси не шевелится, мама. - Тогда, ради бога, пойди разбуди его, - закричала мать. - Скажи ему, что уже одиннадцать и что за опоздание его выгонят с работы.
