1 much of a muchness
(much of a muchness (тж. much (about) the same))почти, приблизительно (одно и) то же; почти такой же; ≈ одного поля ягодаThe steady Forsyteism in Winifred's own character instinctively resented the feeling in the air, the modern girl's habits and her motto: ‘All's much of a muchness! Spend, tomorrow we shall be poor!’ (J. Galsworthy, ‘To Let’, part I, ch. V) — Стойкая в своем форсайтизме, Уинифрид бессознательно отвергала новые веяния, не одобряла повадок современной девушки и ее девиза: "А, все одно! Трать - завтра мы будем нищими!"
He was always importunate when begging a favour for someone else. Lord Boscastle had given way, saying that these fellows were much of a muchness, and Udal was now vicar of a small parish, which included the house of Boscastle itself. (C. P. Snow, ‘The Light and the Dark’, ch. 22) — Рой всегда был навязчив, когда приходилось хлопотать за кого-либо другого. Лорд Боскасл наконец сдался, сказав, что все священники одним миром мазаны. И Удал стал священником небольшого прихода, где находился и дом Боскаслов.
