  • 9 positive(ly)

    Как мы уже писали во введении, positive обычно функционирует как прилагательное, a positively как наречие, однако встречаются случаи, когда и то и другое слово употребляются как частицы. В наиболее общем виде их функцию можно охарактеризовать как эмфатическую, если же говорить более подробно, то они обычно сигнализируют об отсутствии у говорящего сомнений в правильности высказанной оценки. При этом говорящий обычно осознает, что эта оценка, возможно, крайняя, речь идет о высокой степени качества, и то, что произошло, часто удивительно и не соответствует норме. Русские эквиваленты указанных частиц могут быть разными, в зависимости от сочетаемости и общего контекста. Возможности перевода positive и positively иллюстрируют следующие примеры:

    • Tip taxis ten per cent in Bangladesh, five per cent in Italy; in Mexico it is not necessary, and in Japan the driver will be positively insulted if you do. (DL: 232)


    В Бангладеш давайте таксистам десять процентов чаевых, в Италии - пять процентов, в Мексике давать не обязательно, а в Японии таксист воспримет чаевые просто как оскорбление.
