гл.

1. to slip; 2. to slide; 3. to glide; 4. to skid

Русский глагол скользить употребляется с любыми одушевленными и неодушевленными существительными и не уточняет характер скольжения. В английском языке используются разные слова для разных видов существительных: одни глаголы только для неодушевленных предметов, другие для одушевленных и неодушевленных. Кроме того, английские соответствия подчеркивают характер скольжения.

1. to slip — скользить, скользнуть, соскользнуть, поскользнуться (скользить быстро, на короткое расстояние; поскользнуться и упасть; двигаться быстро, плавно, неслышно, тайком; быстрыми и незаметными движениями передавать что-либо): The ring easily slipped off her finger. — Кольцо легко соскользнуло у нес с пальца.

The cup slipped and fell down. — Чашка выскользнула и упала. This glasses are two heavy, they keep slipping down my nose. — Эти очки очень тяжелы, они все время соскальзывают с переносицы.

2. to slide — скользить, плавно двигаться, кататься, скатываться, выскальзывать, соскальзывать ( обычно по скользкой поверхности): The kids were sliding on the ice. — Дети катались по льду. Peter slid his glass across the table. — Петр скользящим движением передвинул стакан на другую сторону стола. He slid out of the room when no one was looking. — Когда никто не смотрел в его сторону, он выскользнул из комнаты. The drawers easily slide in and out. — Ящики легко задвигаются и выдвигаются.

We slipped and slid on the ice losing our balance. — Мы поскользнулись на льду и покатились, теряя равновесие.

3. to glide — скользить, плавно двигаться (спокойно, как бы без усилий): to glide over the ice — скользить по льду; to glide into the room — проскользнуть в комнату/вплыть в комнату A snake was gliding across the path. — Змея скользила поперек тропинки./Змея переползала через тропинку.

ⓘ Do you mind if I slip into something more comfortable? Cette formule ("Est-ce que ça vous dérange si j'enfile quelque chose de plus confortable?") a pour origine Hell's Angels ("Les Anges de l'Enfer"), un film américain de 1930 avec Jean Harlow. La phrase exacte que prononce l'actrice est would you be shocked if I changed into something more comfortable? ("est-ce que ça vous choquerait si j'enfilais quelque chose de plus confortable?") Cette formule évoque les vedettes féminines du cinéma américain des années 30 et 40 et notamment les scènes dans lesquelles celles-ci font des numéros de charme en revêtant des tenues sexy. Aujourd'hui on utilise cette phrase en allusion à l'air séducteur de Jean Harlow, le plus souvent sur le mode humoristique.

Ten cuidado con este verbo. La traducción más común es to go, pero sólo cuando expresa la idea de alejarse de quien habla o del oyente. Si, por el contrario, implica un acercamiento al hablante o al oyente, entonces es mejor usar el verbo to come: ¡Voy! Coming! Esta regla también se aplica a los verbos compuestos como go o come out (salir), go o come in (entrar), go o come up (subir), go o come down (bajar), etc.
