101 sleeve
«Рукав». Существует несколько английских выражений со словом sleeve. To laugh up one's sleeve («смеяться в рукав») — смеяться украдкой, исподтишка:She explained that her husband was in Paris, but we were laughing up our sleeves, because we happened to know that he was in bed with a hangover. — Она объясняла, что её муж в Париже, но мы потихоньку посмеивались, потому что случайно узнали, что он отлёживался в постели с похмелья.
To have something up one's sleeve («иметь что-либо в своём рукаве») - знать что-либо, что может пригодиться позднее.She thinks she's got the better of him, but I suspect he has one or two things up his sleeve. — Она думает, что разделалась с ним, но я подозреваю, что у него припасены ещё одна или две штучки.
Выражение to wear one's heart on one's sleeve («носить своё сердце на рукаве») использовалось с XVIII в. и означает «обнаруживать свои эмоции, открываться», привычку, которая не свойственна англичанам.He adores her, but he never says anything. He can't bring himself to wear his heart on his sleeve. — Он обожает её, но никогда этого не скажет. Он не может заставить себя открыто выражать свои чувства.
Здесь ссылка на средневековую практику носить на рукаве какое-либо украшение, полученное от возлюбленной в знак любви. -
