On y voyait Lord Kitchener, ministre de la Guerre, l'index pointé vers la personne regardant l'affiche. L'idée fut reprise par les Américains avec l'Oncle Sam à la place de Lord Kitchener et le slogan I want you ("J'ai besoin de vous"). Aujourd'hui on utilise l'expression dans tout appel à la nation, comme dans l'exemple suivant: Thinking about becoming a nurse? Call this number now, your country needs you ("La carrière d'infirmière vous intéresse? Composez ce numéro dès maintenant, le pays a besoin de vous."). -

14 the three r's
Reading, [w]riting and [a]rithmetic — чтение, письмо и арифметика, являющиеся основой образования. Говорят, что это выражение впервые употребил сэр Уильям Кёртис (William Curtis,1752—1829), неграмотный лорд-мэр Лондона, который на банкете предложил тост за 'Reading,'riting and 'rithmetic', полагая, что все три слова начинаются с 'r'.I don't know what's happened to education in this country. There are young people today who simply don't know their three r's. — Я не знаю, что произошло с образованием в нашей стране. Сейчас молодые люди просто не знают азбучных истин.

PEOPLE, PERSONS, FOLK, FOLKSPeople употребляется в тех случаях, когда речь идет о большом количестве людей, среди которых нельзя или нет необходимости выделять отдельные, индивидуальные лица: most people like music; there are many people here. Persons имеет в виду отдельных лиц, число которых является обычно незначительным: a few persons have called this morning; there are two or three persons in the room. Folk и folks в значении 'люди' имеют ярко выраженную разговорную окраску, например: folks say, different folk have different views. Folk в этом значении употребляется, главным образом, в словосочетаниях типа country folk 'сельские жители', rich folk 'богачи', town folk 'городские жители', old folk 'старики'. Folks наряду с этим означает 'родня': one's folks, 'родители': one's old folks. Folk в значении 'народ' сохранилось в современном языке в атрибутивном употреблении в сочетаниях типа folk music, folk dance, folk tale.Difficulties of the English language (lexical reference) English-Russian dictionary > people
