115 показывать когти
показывать когти (коготки, зубы), тж. выпускать когти (коготки)show one's (the) claws; put out the claws; show (bare) one's teethКаждое утро он проводил в училище, где, как выражался математик Лебедев, успел уж показать когти: первым его распоряжением было - уволить Тёрку, и на место его был нанят молодцеватый вахмистр. (А. Писемский, Тысяча душ) — He spent every morning at the school where, as the mathematics teacher Lebedev put it, he had already begun to show his claws. His first official act had been to discharge Grater, and put a swaggering corporal in his place.
Время шло. Бархатный ветерок выпустил холодные когти. Предрассветный холод не дал нам уснуть как следует. (И. Ефремов, Обсерватория Нур-и-Дешт) — Time passed. The gentle wind pawing our faces suddenly showed ice-cold claws. The cold of the small hours prevented us from having a good sleep.
- Смотри, Захар, на людей чаще оглядывайся. Это тебе не я, вмиг зубы покажут. Только один раз споткнуться... (П. Проскурин, Судьба) — 'I warn you, Zakhar, you'd better take notice of the others. They won't treat you as I do, they'll bare their teeth in an instant. You only need to stumble no more'n once...'
