5 как ни поверни
разг.wherever you turn; whichever may you turnОн думал о том, что если бы эту пропавшую тысячу рублей положить в банк, то в год проценту накопилось бы самое малое - сорок рублей. Значит и эти сорок рублей тоже убыток. Одним словом, куда ни повернись, везде только убытки и больше ничего. (А. Чехов, Скрипка Ротшильда) — He reflected that if this thousand roubles had been lodged in the bank the interest per annum would have amounted to at least forty roubles. That meant that the forty roubles were also a loss. In one word, wherever you turn, everywhere you meet with loss, and profits none.
