     ♦ "Мне тотчас же пришел в голову опять ещё вопрос: что Софья Семёновна, прежде чем заметит, пожалуй, чего доброго, потеряет деньги..." (Достоевский 3). "...Another question immediately came into my head Also: that Miss Marmeladov might well, for all I knew, lose the money before she noticed it..." (3a).

     ♦ Когда приходил к нему [Манилову] мужик и, почесавши рукою затылок, говорил: "Барин, позволь отлучиться на работу, подать заработать", - "Ступай", - говорил он, куря трубку, и ему даже в голову не приходило, что мужик шёл пьянствовать (Гоголь 3). Whenever a peasant came to him [Manilov] and, scratching the back of his head, said, "Master, give me leave to get an outside job, to pay off my taxes," Manilov invariably answered "Go," and puifed at his pipe; and it never entered his head that the peasant was merely oif on a drunken spree (3d).

     ♦...Иногда мне приходит на ум, что я что-то напутал в жизни, что не сделал чего-то самого главного, а чего именно - никак не могу вспомнить (Войнович 5)....Sometimes the thought crosses my mind that I've somehow messed up, that I've left the most important thing undone, but for the life of me, I can't remember just what that thing is (5a).

     ♦ В Лефортове удивительная библиотека: все книги, что конфисковывались у "врагов народа" за полвека, видно, стеклись сюда. По всей стране "чистили" библиотеки, жгли "вредные" книги - здесь же всё сохранилось, как в оазисе. Никому не приходило в голову чистить библиотеку тюрьмы КГБ... (Буковский 1). Lefortovo had a wonderful library - it looked as if all the books confiscated from the enemies of the people over half a century had ended up here. Up and down the country they had "purged" libraries and burned "pernicious" books, while in here, everything was preserved as in an oasis. It had never occurred to anyone to purge the libraries of the KGB prisons... (1a).

     ♦ Когда хочешь определить, где корни творчества Хемингуэя, на ум не приходит ни английская, ни французская, ни американская литература (Олеша 3). When you wish to determine where the roots of Hemingway's creative work lie, you don't think of English, French, or American literature (3a).

     ♦ В его голосе звучало такое искреннее убеждение, такая несомненная решимость, что мне невольно пришло на мысль: да, если этот человек не попадёт под суд, то он покажет, где раки зимуют! (Салтыков-Щедрин 2). There was such sincere conviction in his voice, such indomitable resolution in every word he uttered that I couldn't help thinking, "Ah, if this man's lucky enough to escape being put on trial, he'll certainly show them what's what!" (2a).

     ♦ Хотя мы и представительствовали в искусстве определённые социально-политические тенденции, однако никому из нас, разумеется, и во сне не приходило в голову, что где-то... у него лежит такой мандат: мы ещё в тринадцатом году перегрызли бы горло всякому, кто попытался бы уверить нас в этом... (Лившиц 1). [context transl] Although we represented definite socio-political tendencies in art, not one of us would have dreamed that he possessed such a mandate. In 1913 we would have throttled anyone who attempted to convince us of this... (1a).

     ♦ Когда приходил к нему [Манилову] мужик и, почесавши рукою затылок, говорил: "Барин, позволь отлучиться на работу, подать заработать", - "Ступай", - говорил он, куря трубку, и ему даже в голову не приходило, что мужик шёл пьянствовать (Гоголь 3). Whenever a peasant came to him [Manilov] and, scratching the back of his head, said, "Master, give me leave to get an outside job, to pay off my taxes," Manilov invariably answered "Go," and puifed at his pipe; and it never entered his head that the peasant was merely oif on a drunken spree (3d).

It had never occurred to anyone to purge the libraries of the KGB prisons... (1a).

     ♦ Когда хочешь определить, где корни творчества Хемингуэя, на ум не приходит ни английская, ни французская, ни американская литература (Олеша 3). When you wish to determine where the roots of Hemingway's creative work lie, you don't think of English, French, or American literature (3a).

94 в лицо

I

• В ЛИЦО кому говорить что, называть кого чем, смеяться, лгать и т.п.

[PrepP; Invar; adv]

=====

⇒ (to say sth., call s.o. sth., laugh at s.o., lie to s.o. etc) openly, directly addressing the person involved:

- (right < straight>) to s.o.'s face;

- (tell s.o. sth.) face to face;

- (laugh) in s.o.'s face;

- [in refer, to lying] tell a boldfaced (barefaced) lie;

- lie through one's teeth.

     ♦ Она [Фанни Невская] - настоящая, с ней нельзя болтать, ей нельэя солгать, она заставляет говорить, как на исповеди. Она говорит в лицо то, что думает (Аллилуева 2). She [Fanny Nevskaya] was a real person. You couldn't just gossip with her, or lie to her. With her you spoke as if you were at confession. And she always said straight to your face what she thought (2a).

     ♦ Они лежали и говорили о чём придется, точно обкладывая то самое главное, хрупкое и ломкое, что было сказано, мягкими оберегающими пустяками. Когда лежишь, легче вести такой разговор: можно, закрыв глаза, сказать то, что в лицо говорить не решишься... (Распутин 2). They lay and talked about anything that came to mind, bolstering the most important thing, delicate and fragile, with soft padding trifles. It's always easier to have a conversation like that when you're lying down: you can say things with your eyes closed that you could never say to someone's face.. (2a)

II

• В ЛИЦО знать кого

[PrepP; Invar; adv]

=====

⇒ (to know s.o.) by his outward appearance (without being acquainted with him):

- X знает Y-а в лицо≈ X knows Y by sight;

- X knows what Y looks like;

- X would recognize Y.

     ♦ Митя хоть и знал этого купца в лицо, но знаком с ним не был и даже ни разу не говорил с ним (Достоевский 1). Though Mitya knew the merchant by sight, he was not acquainted with him and had never once spoken to him (1a).

     ♦ Вскоре Ольга Петровна знала уже всех в издательстве - и по фамилиям, и по должности, и в лицо: счетоводов, редакторов, техредов, курьерш (Чуковская 1). Soon Olga Petrovna knew everyone in the publishing house - their names, their jobs and what they looked like - ledger clerks, editors, technical editors, messengers (1a).

     ♦ Игорь Владимирович танцевал не так профессионально, как Левочка, но хорошо, на них [Игоря Владимировича и Варю] обращали внимание - он был известен, его знали в лицо (Рыбаков 2). Igor Vladimirovich danced very well, not as professionally as Lyova, but people watched as they [Igor Vladimirovich and Varya] danced. They recognized him (2a).

III

• СМОТРЕТЬ( ГЛЯДЕТЬ, ВЗГЛЯНУТЬ) ПРАВДЕ В ГЛАЗА (в ЛИЦО)

[VP: subj: human or collect; often infin with надо, нужно, будем etc]

=====

⇒ to see things or evaluate facts as they really are, look at things clearly, soberly:

- надо смотреть правде в глаза≈ we (you etc) must look the truth (straight) in the eye;

- we (you etc) must face (up to) the truth;

- we (you etc) must look the facts in the face;

- we (you etc) must face (the) facts;

- we (you etc) must face up to reality;

- we (you etc) must confront the truth;

Los tres verbos reflejan tres conceptos muy distintos. To see hace referencia a la capacidad visual y no es fruto de una acción deliberada. A menudo se usa con can o could: I can see the mountains from my bedroom. Puedo ver las montañas desde mi dormitorio.
To look at implica una acción deliberada: I saw an old atlas, so I opened it and looked at the maps. Vi un atlas antiguo, así que lo abrí y miré los mapas.
To watch también se refiere a una acción deliberada, a menudo cuando se tiene un interés especial por lo que ocurre: I watched the planes in the sky with great interest. Miraba los aviones en el cielo con gran interés. Igualmente puede indicar el paso del tiempo (we watched the animals playing for half an hour, durante media hora observamos cómo jugaban los animales), movimiento (they stood there watching the cars drive off into the distance, se quedaron allí de pie viendo cómo se marchaban los coches) o vigilancia (the policemen have been watching this house because they thought we were thieves, los policías estaban vigilando la casa porque pensaban que éramos ladrones).
Para hablar de películas u obras de teatro usamos to see: Have you seen Hamlet?, ¿Has visto Hamlet? To watch se refiere a la televisión y los deportes en general: I always watch the television in the evening. Siempre veo la televisión por las noches. I like to watch football. Me gusta ver el fútbol. Al hablar de programas o partidos específicos podemos usar tanto to watch como to see: I like to see/watch the news at 9:00. Me gusta ver las noticias a las 9.00. Did you see/watch the match last night?, ¿Viste el partido anoche?
