4 до гробовой доски
разг.to (until) one's dying day; to the end of one's days (life); unto the grave; to the tomb; till death (the grave)- О, есть дружба в мире! Навек, не правда ли! - говорил пылко Александр, стискивая руку друга. - До гробовой доски! - отвечал тот. (И. Гончаров, Обыкновенная история) — 'Oh, friendship does exist in the world! For ever, eh?' And he rushed... at his friend, pressing his hand warmly. 'Till the grave!' replied the other.
Тригорин.
...Публика читает: "Да, мило, талантливо... Мило, но далеко до Толстого", или: "Прекрасная вещь, но "Отцы и дети" Тургенева лучше". И так до гробовой доски всё будет только мило и талантливо - больше ничего... (А. Чехов, Чайка) — Trigorin....Then the public reads it and says: 'Yes, charming, talented, but nowhere near Tolstoi', or 'Excellent, but not as good as Turgenev's 'Fathers and Sons'.' And that's how it will be until my dying day - charming and talented - and nothing else.Русско-английский фразеологический словарь > до гробовой доски
