16 pay a compliment to smb.
(pay a compliment to smb. (тж. pay smb. a compliment))сказать, сделать комплимент кому-лLady Windermere: "Well, you kept paying me elaborate compliments the whole evening." Lord Darlington (smiling): "Ah, nowadays we are all of us so hard up, that the only pleasant things to pay are compliments." (O. Wilde, ‘Lady Windermere's Fan’, act I) — Леди Уиндермир: "Весь вечер вы преподносили мне комплименты, один замысловатее другого." Лорд Дарлингтон (с улыбкой): "Да, все мы теперь обеднели, так что комплименты - это единственное подношение, какое мы можем себе позволить."
You pay me too high a compliment, Mr. Musgrave. I am here merely to serve as intermediary between you and the Council. (J. Lindsay, ‘A Local Habitation’, ch. 8) — Много чести для меня, мистер Масгрейв. Я всего лишь посредник между отделом и муниципалитетом.
