Note:

This much-used verb has no multipurpose equivalent in Italian and therefore it is very often translated by choosing a synonym: to get lunch = to prepare lunch = preparare il pranzo. - Get is used in many different contexts and has many different meanings, the most important of which are the following: obtain or receive ( I got it free = l'ho avuto gratis), move or travel ( I got there in time = ci sono arrivato in tempo), have or own ( she has got black hair and green eyes = ha i capelli neri e gli occhi verdi), become ( I'm getting old = sto invecchiando), and understand (got the meaning? = capito?). - Get is also used in many idiomatic expressions ( to get something off one's chest etc), whose translations will be found in the appropriate entry ( chest etc). - When get + object + infinitive is used in English to mean to persuade somebody to do something, fare is used in Italian followed by an infinitive: she got me to clear the table = mi ha fatto sparecchiare la tavola. When get + object + past participle is used to express the idea that a job is done not by you but by somebody else, fare followed by an infinitive is also used in Italian: to get a room painted = fare verniciare una stanza. - When get has the meaning of become and is followed by an adjective (to get rich / drunk etc), diventare is sometimes useful but check the appropriate entry ( rich, drunk etc) as a single verb often suffices ( arricchirsi, ubriacarsi etc). - For examples and further uses of get see the entry below

Note:

This much-used verb has no multipurpose equivalent in Italian and therefore it is very often translated by choosing a synonym: to get lunch = to prepare lunch = preparare il pranzo. - Get is used in many different contexts and has many different meanings, the most important of which are the following: obtain or receive ( I got it free = l'ho avuto gratis), move or travel ( I got there in time = ci sono arrivato in tempo), have or own ( she has got black hair and green eyes = ha i capelli neri e gli occhi verdi), become ( I'm getting old = sto invecchiando), and understand (got the meaning? = capito?). - Get is also used in many idiomatic expressions ( to get something off one's chest etc), whose translations will be found in the appropriate entry ( chest etc). - When get + object + infinitive is used in English to mean to persuade somebody to do something, fare is used in Italian followed by an infinitive: she got me to clear the table = mi ha fatto sparecchiare la tavola. When get + object + past participle is used to express the idea that a job is done not by you but by somebody else, fare followed by an infinitive is also used in Italian: to get a room painted = fare verniciare una stanza. - When get has the meaning of become and is followed by an adjective (to get rich / drunk etc), diventare is sometimes useful but check the appropriate entry ( rich, drunk etc) as a single verb often suffices ( arricchirsi, ubriacarsi etc). - For examples and further uses of get see the entry below

4 GET

GET (TO)

понятно, что с ходовым глаголом "получать" полно идиоматических оборотов. Вот несколько популярных, смысл которых не сразу очевиден:

Get a bang (kick) out of... — получать от чего-то большое удовольствие, балдеть, тащиться. Но удовольствие это совершенно не имеет отношения к тому, которое ранее описывалось термином (*)"gang bang". Как ни странно, эти выражения не связаны.

Get across — объяснить, но не абы как, а чтобы поняли, толково и с толком, успешно.

Get (have) a crush on (someone) — влюбиться, воспылать страстью, "запасть" на кого-то.

Get a handle on (something) — понять, что же надо делать в какой-то (надо полагать, сложной) ситуации. Дословно: ухватиться за ручку. Переносный смысл: найти выход, подобрать ключик, определить слабое звено.

(*)Get hot — возбудиться (сексуально). Дословно: разгорячиться.

Get high — быть на наркотиках, под кайфом, под балдой. Дословно: набрать высоту. См. цв. илл. (Наш перевод названия журнала — "Времена кайфа", тут и знакомое слово "pot" есть.).

Get along with — уживаться с кем-то, не иметь конфликтов.

Get away with (murder) — выйти сухим из воды (не те слова, конечно, но смысл передают в точности).

Get down — вот еще классический пример простого выражения (сочетание двух очень распространенных слов), которое, в зависимости от контекста, может выражать едва ли не что угодно.

В азартной игре это означает - делать ставку. В нейтральном разговоре - сфокусироваться, заняться чем-то всерьез. У наркоманов - употреблять тяжелый наркотик типа героина.

У тинэйджеров это слово скорее всего имеет смысл - получить пресловутый fun (понятие трудно переводимое - см. выше).

На эбониксе - "легкое" значение get down - просто вести себя естественно, а "тяжелое" - точный синоним слова (*) fuck. Hey, let's get down! (Эй, давай потрахаемся!) Впрочем, нашему читателю, если он хочет употребить более прилично звучащий синоним слова fuck, мы все же порекомендуем универсальное, но более прямое и грубое выражение (*) get laid. (Внимание! Тут нет большого спектра значений, и напрашивающийся перевод "полежать" абсолютно не работает, именно "переспать").

Но закончим с get down. Мы не обещали нашему читателю легкой жизни, правда? Ну вот, еще одно упражнение. Определите, что будет означать это выражение в устах черного подростка-наркомана, играющего в карты. (Ждете от нас ответа? Напрасно.)

Get it — дошло, понял (шутку, например). Но посмотрите на выражения, приведенные ниже, и будьте внимательны.

Get it off = come off = get (one's) nuts (rocks) off — это уже будет чисто "испытать оргазм".

Get it on — в точном переводе означает (пусть скромные девушки дальше не читают): "встал". С еще большей силой то же явление иллюстрируется популярным и ярким синонимом (*) get a hard-on (ибо жесткость появляется только тогда, когда "встал" мощно). Оба выражения используются и фигурально, в смысле - получить удовольствие, поймать кураж, кайф - to have fun (a good time). Поклонники "Баунти" говорят в этом случае: "Испытать неземное наслаждение". И они правы.

Get off — может означать и - употреблять наркотики (с удовольствием). Но чаще употребляется в смысле "убираться", "сваливать". Get off! - отвали!

Get out of my face! — не спорь со мной! Хоть слова и простейшие, напрашивающаяся наша аналогия "прочь с глаз моих" - не совсем то.

Get a life! — милое пожелание тому, чей образ жизни и, часто, копание в чужих делах, вы совершенно не одобряете. Пожелание это, конечно, будет принято с благодарностью.

Get lost! — Отвали! Исчезни! Дословно: сгинь!

Get the pink slip — см. PINK SLIP

USAGE:

(1.) Глагол to look в значении "выглядеть как-либо, иметь какой-либо вид" 2. употребляется с последующим прилагательным: to look ill (young, happy). B сочетании хорошо выглядеть (о внешности) глагол to look употребляется с прилагательным well: she looks well она выглядит хорошо/у нее здоровый вид. Сочетание to look good обозначает быть на вид хорошего качества: the meat looks good мясо на вид свежее/хорошее/неиспорченное. (2.) Русское предложение Как он выглядит? имеет разные английские соответствия: в случае, если имеется в виду человек незнакомый (и предложение соответственно обозначает Каков он из себя?), то употребляется What does he look like? B том случае, если человек знакомый (и предложение обозначает Как он себя чувствует?), эта фраза соответствует How does he look? (3.) Выражение to look like smth соответствует русскому похоже: it looks like rain (snow, storm) похоже, что будет дождь (снег, гроза).

WAYS OF DOING THINGS:

Глагол to look даёт общее, нейтральное название действия "смотрения", не конкретизируя его характера. Характер этого действия находит выражение в ряде других глаголов, таких как to glance и to give a glance, to gaze, to stare, to gape, to glimpse, to scowl, to squint.

To squint - "посмотреть искоса, пристально, прищурившись; смотреть на что-либо, кого-либо, чтобы лучше разглядеть": she squinted at the paper but it was imposible to read what was written there она прищурившись посмотрела на документ, но прочитать то, что там было написано было невозможно; squinting through the frosted glass window I could just make out my sister's car in the distance вглядываясь через замёрзшее стекло окна, я мог только рассмотреть вдали машину моей сестры.

To glance, to give a glance - "бросить беглый взгляд; посмотреть бегло, скользя глазами вверх и вниз": during the meal he kept glancing at the door, obviously expecting someone to walk in за едой он всё время посматривал на дверь, явно ожидая, что кто-то войдёт; I saw them glancing at each other as if they knew something I did not я видел, как они бросали друг другу быстрые взгляды, как будто знали что-то, чего я не знал; glancing into the kitchen she realized no one was home заглянув в кухню, она поняла, что никого дома не было; Greg glanced sideways at his friend, trying to catch his eye Грэг искоса взглянул на друга, стараясь поймать его взгляд; a glance at my watch told one it was nearly five o'clock взглянув на часы, я увидел, что было уже пять часов.

To shoot/cast/throw a glance - "бросить быстрый взгляд, посмотреть вверх и вниз": she shot a quick glance over her shoulder to see who was following her она быстро взглянула через плечо, чтобы увидеть, кто за ней шел; she cast a glance around the room, taking in her surrounding она быстро окинула комнату взглядом, чтобы понять, кто её окружает.

To gape - "глазеть; смотреть на что-либо, разинув рот от удивления": she stood there gaping at me too shocked to speak она в изумлении уставилась на меня, не в состоянии сказать что-либо; Jim gaped, open-mouthed, trying to take in what they had told him Джим (обалдело) смотрел на них, широко разинув рот, пытаясь понять, что они ему сказали; I could only gape in astonishment as he picked up the gun and pointed it at me в изумлении я уставился на него, видя как он схватил пистолет и направил его на меня.

To peep, to have a peep - "украдкой, быстро бросить взгляд, особенно через узкое и маленькое отверстие": the house seemed empty, but I peeped in through the window to see if anyone was there дом, казалось, был пуст, но я заглянул внутрь через окно, чтобы убедиться, что там никого нет; close your eyes, I have a surprise for you; no peeping! закрой глаза и не подсматривай, у меня для тебя сюрприз; she felt tempted to have a peep at her neighbours' garden у нее был большой соблазн украдкой заглянуть в сад соседей; the children could never attend their parents' parties, but they were allowed to peep through the door дети не имели права участвовать, когда у родителей были гости, но им разрешалось заглянуть в дверь.

To stare - "смотреть, вглядываться во что-либо, смотреть долгое время не сводя глаз": don't stare at people, it is very rude нельзя, уставившись, смотреть на людей - это очень невежливо; as the fire destroyed the house we just stood and stared in disbelief пока огонь пожирал наш дом, мы просто стояли и не сводили с него глаз, не веря тому, что происходит; every night it is the same, staring up at the ceiling, unable to sleep каждую ночь повторяется одно и то же, я лежу, устремив глаза в потолок, будучи не в состоянии заснуть.

To gaze - "пристально, продолжительно разглядывать что-либо, не отводя взгляда, особенно потому, что объект вызывает гнев, раздражение или большой интерес, разглядывать, уставиться, устремить взгляд": they lay down and gazed at the clouds floating overhead они лежали и бездумно смотрели на проплывающие над ними облака; Amy gazed steadily at the singer unable to believe she was so close to him Эми пристально смотрела на певца, не веря, что он стоит рядом с ней; she sat and gazed into the distance lost in thought она сидела глубоко задумавшись, всматриваясь в даль; I could see from the difrection of his gaze that he was looking at my new car по направлению его пристального взгляда я понимал, что он разглядывал мою новую машину.

To peer - "с трудом разглядывать что-либо, особенно, если вы не очень хорошо видите или если недостаточно света": Tom peered into the dark corridor to see what was making the noise Том всматривался в темный корридор, чтобы разглядеть откуда исходил шум; Jane peered at the writing under the picture Джейн старалась рассмотреть надпись под картиной.

To scowl - "злобно смотреть на что-либо, кого-либо; недовольно хмуриться": he scowled and told John to get out он злобно/сердито нахмурился и выгнал Джона; "Oh, what do you want? " said the old man scowling "Что вам нужно? " - сердито спросил старик; James scowled at me furiously as I left the room, his whole body trembling with rage Джеймс, трясясь от бешенства, со злостью взглянул на меня, когда я выходил из комнаты.

To glare - "сердито и долго, не отрывая глаз, смотреть на кого-либо, что-либо": she didn't say anything, but just sat there glaring at me она ничего не сказала, просто сидела и сердито смотрела на меня; she sat down and glared fiercely, knowing that the witness I had beaten her она села и свирепо посмотрела на свидетеля, зная, что это он побил ее; as soon as he heard this, he glared fiercely in our direction как только он это услышал, он свирепо посмотрел на нас
