16 ramp up
•• * Глагол to ramp up, встречающийся довольно часто в текстах на разные темы, происходит, вероятнее всего, из management lingo – это специфический язык, на котором говорят в американских школах бизнеса и который вызывает раздражение у многих простых смертных. Данный глагол, однако, быстро проникает в СМИ, хотя встречается чаще в текстах на компьютерные, технические и связанные с бизнесом темы. В словарях, просмотренных мною, этот глагол не обнаружен. Возможно, его не включают по недосмотру, а может быть потому, что значение кажется более или менее очевидным, вытекающим из интуитивно ясной метафоры «эстакады». Мне кажется, что это слово заслуживает включения в словари.
•• Подсказкой для поиска вариантов перевода может стать включенное в ABBYY Polytechnic существительное ramp-up – линейно нарастающая характеристика. Или контекст:
•• ConjuGon Inc., a Madison biotechnology firm, will begin ramping up operations after relocating its headquarters to the MG&E Innovation Center <...> “ This move signals the start of shifting our operations into high gear,” Sal Braico, ConjuGon business manager, said in a statement. (Business Journal of Milwakee)
•• Смысл очевиден – наращивать/развертывать производство/деятельность, но для выбора вариантов желательно иметь представление, на какой стадии находится ramp-up.
•• Аналогичные примеры из сферы бизнеса:
•• The company had planned to emerge as a cement bigwig by ramping up capacities through acquisitions. (Hindu Group Business Online) – Компания планировала стать ведущим производителем цемента, нарастив/расширив мощности за счет приобретения конкурентов. Six months after launching a distribution center in Memphis, Synntex Information Technologies, Inc., is ramping up the facility to add light assembly operations, which will create another 20 jobs initially. (Memphis Business Journal)
•• Здесь интересно то, что можно ramp up не только production или operations, но и facility, т.е. физический объект. На переводе это не сказывается – расширять/наращивать производственную деятельность.
•• Иногда – в частности в заголовках – ramping up встречается без дополнения:
•• Ramping up for war: defense contractors tighten security, work longer hours, speed deliveries to the military.
•• Другой пример:
•• Ramping up the Internet.
•• Здесь, судя по тексту статьи, мы имеем дело с дальнейшим расширением значения посредством активизации метафоры:
•• These [fiber optic] highways have been built. We need to build new access ramps to be able to utilize the capacity.
•• По смыслу здесь не «наращивание мощностей», а расширение доступа к Интернету. В следующем примере ramping up – скорее эквивалент широкого внедрения:
•• Priorities for next year include ramping up a mortgage system to solve the nation’s worsening housing conditions. (Moscow Times)
•• Наконец, пример проникновения to ramp up в общую лексику:
