карманные деньги, деньги "на булавки"

Flowers, candy, jewelry, seemed the principal things in which the elegant dames were interested. And she - she had scarcely enough pin money to indulge in such outings as this a few times a month.

У нее едва хватало карманных денег, чтобы сделать покупки здесь, на Бродвее, хотя бы два раза в месяц.

16 Time conjunctions

Временные союзы

↑ Subordinating conjunctions

↑ Adverbial clause of time

Союзы, вводящие временные придаточные предложения: when, after, as, as long as, as soon as, before, by the time (that), during the time (that), now (that), once, since, until/ till, whenever, while.

Некоторые особенности употребления временных союзов:

1)

а) as, when, while.

Союзы as, when и while ("когда")могут употребляться при описании "фоновой" ситуации, то есть такой ситуации, которая уже имела место раньше и продолжала иметь место, когда произошло событие, о котором говорится в главном предложении. В придаточных предложениях, вводимых этими союзами, используется обычно прошедшее продолженное время (Past continuous), но при while, as возможно также простое прошедшее (Past simple). Союз as обычно вводит не очень важную информацию; придаточное с as стоит в начале предложения.

But while people talked the wedding-day arrived. — Но пока шли разговоры, настал день свадьбы.

And then as I was hurrying off I heard him say, quite loudly, to the doctor: "I'll have no favourites on my ship". — А потом, когда я поспешно убегал оттуда, я услышал, как он довольно громко сказал доктору: "Я не потерплю любимчиков на корабле".

б) while.

Союз while употребляется, если речь идет об одновременных длительных действиях.

There was silence while one might count ten - the master was gathering his wrath. — Пауза длилась столько, что можно было досчитать до десяти - гнев хозяина нарастал.

в) as, when.

Союзы ( just) as и ( just) when употребляются при описании коротких одновременных действий.

And just as he was telling himself that, there came to the door a loud knock. — И как раз когда он говорил себе это, раздался громкий стук в дверь.

2) before, until, as long as.

а) Предложение с союзом before ("прежде чем") предполагает, что действие, о котором идет речь в придаточном предложении, имело место раньше, чем основное действие.

Before reaching the town the hunter branched away into a narrow footpath which led to the mountains. — Не доходя до города, охотник свернул на узкую тропинку, ведущую в горы.

б) Предложение с союзом until ("пока не") предполагает, что действие, о котором речь в придаточном предложении, продолжалось вплоть до основного события. Союз until имеет отрицательное значение, поэтому на русский язык переводится с отрицанием.

When the alarm was raised, she had had no time to get up-stairs: she hid in the west wing until every one was down on the lower floor. — Когда объявили тревогу, у нее не было времени подняться наверх: она пряталась в западном крыле, пока все не спустились на нижний этаж.

в) Если предложение введено союзом as long as ("пока"), то действие, о котором идет речь в главном предложении протекало параллельно с тем действием, о котором речь в придаточном, до окончания последнего.

You'll never be a painter as long as you live. — Ты никогда в жизни не станешь художником.

3) ... hardly... when/ before;... scarcely... when/ before;... no sooner... than.

а) Перечисленные конструкции употребляются (часто в сочетании с прошедшим совершенным (Past perfect)) для описания двух действий, одно из которых произошло сразу после другого.

This answer no sooner reached Britain, than the whole nation were transported with joy. — Как только эта новость достигла Британии, население возликовало.

I had hardly walked half-way towards the house when Sir Percival, who had withdrawn in the opposite direction, suddenly stopped and called me back. — Не успел я пройти половину пути до дома, как сэр Персиваль, который шел в противоположном направлении, неожиданно остановился и окликнул меня.

б) В письменном языке при употреблении таких конструкций иногда используется обратный порядок слов (см. Inversion):

No sooner was she out of sight, than Emma exclaimed, 'What an exquisite possession a good picture of her would be!' — Не успела она скрыться из виду, как Эмма воскликнула: " Каким исключительным достоянием мог бы быть ее портрет!"

Scarcely had Daisy opened her lips when a loud ring echoed through the house. — Не успела Дейзи раскрыть рта, как по дому эхом разнесся громкий звонок.
