25 confusion worse confounded
книжн.путаница, полный хаос [выражение создано Дж. Мильтоном; см. цитату]With ruin upon ruin, rout on rout, Confusion worse confounded. (J. Milton, ‘Paradise Lost’, book II) — Разрушение за разрушением, поражение за поражением, Словом - совершенный хаос.
You mustn't take me up like that. I merely meant it's best not to make confusion more confounded by careless conjecture and malicious inference. (J. Lindsay, ‘A Local Habitation’, ch. 7) — Вы меня неправильно понимаете. Я хотел лишь сказать, что не следует осложнять и без того сложные вопросы, делая необдуманные и чрезмерно критические выводы.
In the English of today there is uncertainty of usage between averse to and averse from, between different to, different from and occasionally, different than. In the language of Shakespeare this kind of confusion is worse confounded. (G. H. McKnight, ‘Modern English in the Making’, ch. X) — В современном английском языке неясно различие между averse to и averse from, между different to, different from и иногда different than. В языке Шекспира подобной путаницы еще больше.
