    [indep. sent or clause; Invar; fixed WO]
    =====
    1. Also: КАК ТЕБЕ (ВАМ) СКАЗАТЬ coll (used to express the speaker's hesitation or inability to answer a question confidently and specifically) it is hard for me to answer that precisely:
    - how should (shall, can) I put it?;
    - how can I explain?;
    - [in limited contexts] I don't know if I'd say that.
         ♦ [Кручинина:] Вас любил кто-нибудь? [Незнамов:] Как вам сказать... Настоящим образом нет... (Островский 3). [К.:] Has no one ever loved you? [N.:] Hm, how shall I put it? Not really (3a).
         ♦ " Ну что? - положив трубку, она [прокурор] смотрит на меня с улыбкой, не предвещающей ничего хорошего. - Значит, въехали самовольно в чужую квартиру?" - "Да как вам сказать, - бормочу я, понимая заранее, что все объяснения лишни. - Не совсем в чужую и не совсем самовольно" (Войнович 3). "Well, then." Putting down the phone, she [the Public Prosecutor] looks at me with a smile that portends no good. "So, you moved into someone else's apartment without authorization." "How can I explain?" I mumble, knowing in advance that all explanations are superfluous. "Not exactly someone else's and not exactly without authorization" (3a).
         ♦ Ревкину показалось, что Голубев сказал не "с бабой", а "с бандой". "И большая у него [Чонкина] банда?" - поинтересовался он. "Да как сказать... - замялся Голубев, вызывая в своем воображении образ Нюры... - вообще-то порядочная" (Войнович 2)....It seemed to Revkin that Golubev had not said "girl" but "gang." "And how big is his [Chonkin's] gang?" inquired Revkin. "Now let me see..." Golubev hesitated, summoning up Nyura's image in his mind. "...Pretty good-sized on the whole" (2a).
         ♦ Вконец раздобревший хозяин кинулся было в магазин за добавкой, но гость решительно перевернул свой стакан вверх дном: " Я... пас". - "Что так?" - "Папашка не любит, когда посреди работы". - "Строг?" - "Да как сказать. Строг не строг, а порядок любит" (Максимов 3). Completely mellowed by now, he wanted to run to the shop for fresh supplies, but his guest resolutely turned his glass upside down. "I pass..." "How's that?" "The old man doesn't like it in the middle of a job." "So he's strict?" "I don't know if I'd say that. He isn't exactly strict, but he likes things to be proper" (3a).
    2. often это (ещё) - (used by the speaker to express his disagreement with or objection to the preceding statement) I cannot agree with that: I wouldn't say that; I wouldn't exactly put it that way; I wouldn't put it quite that way; I beg to differ (with you); that's what you think <he thinks etc>; [in limited contexts]
    ⇒ that's stretching a (the) point (a bit).
         ♦ "Задание несложное". - "Это как сказать, в нем есть свои трудности". "The assignment isn't that hard." 'That's what you think-it has its difficulties."
         ♦ Ну, а насчет мягкости приговора, так это еще как сказать (Марченко 2). То say that the sentence was mild is stretching a point (2a).

  • 42 Unconscious

       Prior to Descartes and his sharp definition of the dualism there was no cause to contemplate the possible existence of unconscious mentality as part of a separate realm of mind. Many religious and speculative thinkers had taken for granted factors lying outside but influencing immediate awareness.... Until an attempt had been made (with apparent success) to choose awareness as the defining characteristic of mind, there was no occasion to invent the idea of unconscious mind.... It is only after Descartes that we find, first the idea and then the term "unconscious mind" entering European thought. (Whyte, 1962, p. 25)
       If there are two realms, physical and mental, awareness cannot be taken as the criterion of mentality [because] the springs of human nature lie in the unconscious... as the realm which links the moments of human awareness with the background of organic processes within which they emerge. (Whyte, 1962, p. 63)
       he unconscious was no more invented by Freud than evolution was invented by Darwin, and has an equally impressive pedigree, reaching back to antiquity.... At the dawn of Christian Europe the dominant influence were the Neoplatonists; foremost among them Plotinus, who took it for granted that "feelings can be present without awareness of them," that "the absence of a conscious perception is no proof of the absence of mental activity," and who talked confidently of a "mirror" in the mind which, when correctly aimed, reflects the processes going on inside it, when aimed in another direction, fails to do so-but the process goes on all the same. Augustine marvelled at man's immense store of unconscious memories-"a spreading, limitless room within me-who can reach its limitless depth?"
       The knowledge of unconscious mentation had always been there, as can be shown by quotations from theologians like St. Thomas Aquinas, mystics like Jacob Boehme, physicians like Paracelsus, astronomers like Kepler, writers and poets as far apart as Dante, Cervantes, Shakespeare, and Montaigne. This in itself is in no way remarkable; what is remarkable is that this knowledge was lost during the scientific revolution, more particularly under the impact of its most influential philosopher, Rene Descartes. (Koestler, 1964, p. 148)
       4) The Constructive Nature of Automatic Cognitive Functioning Argues for the Existence of Unconscious Activity
       The constructive nature of the automatic functioning argues the existence of an activity analogous to consciousness though hidden from observation, and we have therefore termed it unconscious. The negative prefix suggests an opposition, but it is no more than verbal, not any sort of hostility or incompatibility being implied by it, but simply the absence of consciousness. Yet a real opposition between the conscious and the unconscious activity does subsist in the limitations which the former tends to impose on the latter. (Ghiselin, 1985, p. 7)

The citizens of Arbatov were evidently unable to imagine how the car could be utilized in a state of sobriety, and thought of Kozlevich's motor as a den of iniquity, in which you just had to let your hair down, make undignified noises, and generally live it up (2a). Evidently the Arbatovites could not imagine how one could use an automobile while sober, and considered the horseless carriage of Kozlevich a nest of lechery in which one must perforce behave boisterously amid unnecessary cries and generally lead a fast life (2b).
    Каждый человек, которому дано, хотя бы на мгновенье, высунуться из житейской суеты, сознает нешуточность данного ему судьбой дара жизни. Он не может не понимать, что дар этот ограничен во времени и надо использовать его наилучшим образом. Между прочим, прожигатели жизни - это не люди, которые махнули рукой на дар жизни, а люди, которые так понимают ценность жизни и последовательно осуществляют накопление этой ценности (Искандер 3). Every man to whom it is granted to lift himself above the vain bustle of the world, if only for a moment, realizes the solemnity of the gift of life that fate has given him. He cannot fail to understand that this gift is limited in time and he must use it as best he can. Incidentally, fast livers are not men who have given up on the gift of life but men who understand the value of life in this way and are therefore seeing to it that they accumulate this value (3a).

    λέσχη Bremmer WAAR?
    Grammatical information: f.
    Meaning: `room, builing as meeting place' (σ 329, Hes.); `grave' (Rhodos); see H. Bolkestein MAWNied. 84B: 3 (1937) 18ff.
    Compounds: ἔλ-λεσχος `commonly talked off' (Hdt. 1, 153; from ἐν λέσχῃ), πρό-λεσχος `eager to talk' (A. Supp. 200; cf. πρό-χειρος a.o.; ἀδο-λέσχης (s.s.v.).
    Derivatives: λεσχήν, - ῆνος m. `chatterer' (Timo 46); λεσχην-εῖ ὁμιλεῖ, μυθολογεῖ H. - λεσχαῖος ἐξηγητής, ὁμιλητής H.; λεσχάραι οἷον αἱ σχολαί... (EM561, 17). See Solmsen Wortforsch. 124 f. - Two month names of unclear formation: Λεσχανάσιος (Tegea), Λεσχανόριος (Thessal., Gortyn); also Άπόλλων Λεσχηνόριος (from the λέσχαι which were under his protection?).
    Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]
    Etymology: Mostly connected with λέχος, from *λέχσκᾱ. As Greek has no nomin. suffix - sk-, and as a k-suffix from the zero grade *λεχσ- is also improbable, one assumes a σκ-present *λέχ-σκ-εται (\> *λέσχεται); but there is no trace of this verb. The same formation was assumed for OHG. lëscan ' löschen' (as `lie down'); also for Celtic, e. g. OIr. lesc `lazy', where it is quite uncertain. - As the room was not for lying down, this etymology (supposing *λεσχεται really existed) is improbable. - Long ago the agreement with Hebr. liškāh was observed. This cannot be ignored. It was assumed that Greek had the word from the Near East (West, East Face 38; not the other way round, ib.), but as the word is isolated in NWSemitic, Schrader (FS Jahrh.feier Univ. Breslau, 1911, 469) already assumed that both languages had it from Anatolia, which seems the most probable interpretation. Thus Fur. 295, 257, who points out that the suffix of λεσχάραι is non-Greek; he also points to the Hebr. variant niškāh, which may point to Anat. l\/n, as in Fur. 388. Thus now Bremmer, WAAR?
