посл.≈ не хочешь недоразумений - не называй имёнI'm sorry not to oblige you, Mr. Challoner, but I've got competition in my business. There's a certain party - no names, no pack-drill - who's fairly doggin' me to get information. (E. Wallace, ‘More Educated Evans’, ch. VII) — Я сожалею, что не могу помочь вам, мистер Чаллонер, но конкуренция среди клиентов, которые обращаются ко мне, слишком велика.
