5 little pitchers have big ears
посл.≈ дети любят слушать разговоры взрослых, дети любят подслушивать‘Little pitchers have big ears,’ they used to say when I was smaller. Then they stopped saying it... They gave up in despair. If I didn't hear, I guessed; and if I didn't guess I wheedled it out of someone. (S. Chaplin, ‘The Big Room’, ch. 1) — Когда я была маленькой, родители говорили: "Осторожно, у маленького кувшинчика большие уши". Но очень скоро они перестали это говорить... Я приводила их в отчаяние. Если я не слышала чего-нибудь, то догадывалась. А если не догадывалась, то выуживала у кого-нибудь.
I remember odd fragments of gossip from the time when the aunts used to say: ‘Little pitchers have long ears!’ And there would be a pause in the lively conversation if I were about. (K. S. Prichard, ‘Child of the Hurricane’, ch. III) — Мне вспоминаются обрывки разговоров еще тех времен, когда тетки при виде меня говорили: "Много будешь знать, скоро состаришься", и, лишь выпроводив меня, возобновляли оживленную беседу.
