ⓘ Reaches the parts that other beers can't reach Il s'agit du slogan d'une série de publicités pour la bière Heineken pendant les années 70 dans lesquelles la bière était censée conférer des pouvoirs spéciaux à ceux qui la consommaient. Aujourd'hui on utilise encore cette formule ("atteint les parties que les autres bières ne peuvent atteindre"), en remplaçant le mot beers par un autre pour décrire les qualités de quelque chose de façon humoristique. On dira par exemple she makes tea that reaches the parts that other tea cannot reach ("elle fait du thé vraiment excellent"), ou this tour reaches the parts of Scotland that others don't ("ce circuit touristique explore les coins d'Écosse que les autres ignorent").

11 the Father of Rivers

амер.

(the Father of Rivers (или Waters; тж. the Great Father))

≈ "мать рек", "мать вод" ( прозвище реки Миссисипи)

I bought a poor boy sandwich and got out of the town. Not too far along I found a pleasant resting place where I could sit and munch and contemplate and stare out over the stately brown, slow-moving Father of Waters as my spirit required. (J. Steinbeck, ‘Travels with Charley’, part IV) — Купив себе скромный бутерброд, я выехал из города. Довольно скоро я нашел приятное место для отдыха, где можно было посидеть, пожевать, подумать и поглядеть на величавую, темно-желтую, медленно катящую свои волны Мать Вод.

12 the Big Coffin Hunters

SK, DT 4

Большие охотники за гробами

Компания из трёх наёмников-головорезов в Хэмбри, нанятых Джорджем Латиго, человеком на службе у Джона Фарсона, в задачу которых входила подготовка натуральных ресурсов феода Меджис (в основном нефти, лошадей и скота) для нужд армии Благодетеля. (см. good man) Они также осуществляли силовой контроль над ситуацией в Меджисе, созданной с целью вывода этого феода из Альянса. Главарём этой банды был Элдред Джонас, остальными двумя участниками – Клей Рейнолдс и Рой Дипейп. Отличительным знаком, выдающим их принадлежность к банде, была татауировка между пальцев рук в виде гроба.

см. тж Eldred Jonas, Clay Reynolds, Roy Depape, John Farson, George Latigo

Once there had been freehold mines up there, but they were all gone, regulated out by the Vi Castis Company. Depape knew all about it, because the Big Coffin Hunters had been a part of that little spin and raree. Just after he’d hooked up with Jonas and Reynolds, that had been. Why, they had gotten those coffins tattooed on their hands not fifty miles from here, in the town of Wind, a mudpen even less ritzy than Ritzy. How long ago? He couldn’t rightly say, although it seemed to him that he should be able to. — Когда-то здесь работали старатели, но они давно ушли, изгнанные “Ви-Кастис компани”. Дипейп это хорошо знал, потому что в свое время Большим охотникам за гробами довелось поработать на компанию. Случилось это вскоре после того, как он связал свою судьбу с Джонасом и Рейнолдсом. Да и сами гробы они вытатуировали неподалеку, в пятидесяти милях отсюда, в городе Ветреном, еще более мерзком, чем Ритзи. Как давно это было? Точно он не помнил, хотя ему казалось, что должен помнить. (ТБ 4)

It was a case of "pay or hit the grit"... Those who did not pay were left behind, unless they were skillful enough to ride the train in spite of all efforts of the train crew to ditch them. (W.

Тех, кто отказывался платить, ссаживали с поезда, кроме особенно ловких, которые все же ухитрялись ехать, несмотря на все усилия поездной бригады ссадить их.

2) убраться, смыться

‘Mr. Hale, I'm going to marry Emma.’ ‘And I say you ain't. And I don't want you in my home any longer. Pack up and hit the grit.’ (V. Fisher, ‘Children of God’, part I, ch. III) — - Мистер Хейл, я хочу жениться на Эмме. - И не думай об этом. В моем доме тебе делать больше нечего. Собирай пожитки и убирайся вон!
