"Oh, Vanya, Vanya....Some commune you've set up....You'll get yourself into a lot of trouble and it'll be too late" (1a).♦ Работники скупки и домовой лавки, которые были ограблены... пришли в управление для того, чтобы опознать одного из грабителей. В кабинете у Садчикова посадили трёх парней [студентов университета]... Студенты всё время улыбались и весело переглядывались - это была их первая практика. Садчиков сказал: "Вы это, х-хлопцы, бросьте. Мы сейчас приведём т-того парня, так ему не до улыбок. Ясно? Вы его так сраз-зу под монастырь подведёте" (Семёнов 1). The staff of the pawnshop that had been robbed...had come to headquarters in order to identify one of the thieves. Three [university] students...had been invited to Sadchikov's office. They smiled and looked at one another cheerfully the whole time-this was their first case. Sadchikov said: "Right, pack it up, 1-lads. We're going to bring the other b-boy in now and he doesn't feel much like laughing. Got it? This way you'll p-put him on the spot right away" (1a).♦ "Повезёшь моё письмо. Обыскивать вас не будут. Опустишь там в почтовый ящик, и всё". - "Подведёшь ты меня под монастырь", - говорю я (Зиновьев 2). [context transl] "So you can take out my letter. They'll never search you. All you've got to do is drop it in a postbox, and that's it." "Look-you're going to land me in jail," I said (2a).Большой русско-английский фразеологический словарь > подвести под монастырь
