3 THOU
(singular 2nd person pronoun, distinct from plural “you” – the Quenya forms here discussed are not archaic like English “thou”, but simply express singular “you”). Quenya makes a distinction between a formal or polite “thou” and an intimate or familiar “thou”, the latter being reserved for use between close friends, family members, and lovers (VT49:51, 52). The formal pronoun normally appears as the ending -lyë or (if shortened) -l that is added to verbs, e.g. hiruvalyë “thou shalt find ” (Nam), caril or carilyë *“thou dost” or *“you (sg.) do” (VT49:16). The short form in -l may be the more usual, though the long form -lye- must be used if a second pronominal ending denoting the object of the verb is to be added (e.g. *cenuvalyes “thou shalt see it”, with the ending -s “it” appended). The ending -lyë may also be added to prepositions (aselyë “with thee”, VT43:29). The independent pronoun is lye, with a long vowel (lyé, VT49:51) when stressed. This pronoun can also appear in object position (English “thee”), e.g. nai Eru lye mánata, by Tolkien translated “God bless you” (VT49:39). Case endings may be added, e.g. allative lyenna *“upon thee” (VT49:40, 41). There is also elyë “thou, even thou” (Nam, RGEO:67) as an emphatic pronoun (Nam); apparently this can also receive case endings. Such independent pronouns may also be used in copula-less constructions, e.g. aistana elyë "blessed [art] thou" (VT43:30). – The intimate or familiar pronoun is similar in form, only with t instead of l. The pronominal ending is thus -tyë, as in carityë “thou dost, you (sg.) do” (VT49:16). It is uncertain whether -tyë has a short form -t (the existence of a short form is explicitly denied in VT49:51, but -t is listed in VT49:48). At one conceptual stage Tolkien mentioned such an ending that could be added to imperatives (hecat “get thee gone”, WJ:364), but he may have dropped it because it clashed with -t as a dual ending on verbs. The independent pronoun is tye, with a long vowel when stressed (tyé, VT49:51); presumably there also exists an emphatic pronoun *etyë (still unattested). Like lye, the pronoun tye may also appear in object position (ar inyë, yonya, tye-méla “and I too, my son, love thee”, LR:61); we must also assume that tye (and emphatic *etyë) can receive case endings. – Genitive forms, see THY. -

6 be one too many
быть лишним [шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Dromio of Syracuse: "...Either get thee from the door, or sit down at the hatch: Dost thou conjure for wenches, that thou call'st for such store, When one is one too many? Go, get thee from the door. " (W. Shakespeare, ‘The Comedy of Errors’, act III, sc. 1) — Дромио Сиракузский: "...Прочь от двери отойди Иль у порога там смирнехонько сиди. Ишь, сколько вызвал баб, как сущий заклинатель! Тут много и одной, проваливай, приятель!" (перевод П. Вейнберга)
The Marquise was, therefore, left planted as one too many; a situation to which she, the spoiled child of society, was so unaccustomed, that she could have cried with vexation... (G. Whyte-Melville, ‘Cerise’, ch. XV) — Таким образом, маркиза оказалась лишней. Для нее, избалованной вниманием света, это было столь непривычно, что она готова была расплакаться от огорчения.

7 cakes and ale
веселье, удовольствия, развлечения [шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Sir Toby: "Dost thou think because thou art virtuous there shall be no more cakes and ale?" (W. Shakespeare, ‘Twelfth Night’, act II, sc. 3) — Сэр Тоби: "Или ты думаешь, раз ты добродетелен, уж больше не будет весёлой жизни?"
There was a feeling... that in very truth the time for cakes and ale in this world was all over. It was this feeling that made a residence in Ireland at that period so very sad. (A. Trollope, ‘Castle Richmond’, vol. II, ch. XXIII) — Люди считали... что в мире наступил конец веселью и удовольствиям. От этого пребывание в Ирландии было весьма печальным.
Many Tories of the old school disliked the "Clapham sect" as they were called - for their friendship with Dissenters, their too insistent interest in their own and other people's souls, their want of appreciation of the spirit of cakes and ale. (G. M. Trevelyan, ‘History of England’, book V, ch. VI) — Многие тори старшего поколения не любили членов так называемой Клапемской секты за их дружбу с диссидентами, за их чрезмерный интерес как к собственным, так и к чужим душам, за их неспособность понять стремление людей к радостям жизни.

8 ginger shall be hot in the mouth
≈ человеку присуще влечение к удовольствиям, человека влечёт к удовольствиям [шекспировское выражение; см. цитату]Sir Toby: "...Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?" Clown: "Yes, by saint Anne; and ginger shall be hot i' the mouth too." (W. Shakespeare, ‘Twelfth Night’, act II, sc. 3) — Сэр Тоби: "...Или ты думаешь, что если ты добродетелен, так уж не должно быть ни пирожков, ни пива?" Шут: "Да, клянусь святой Анной, и рот должно обжигать имбирем" (перевод М. Лозинского)
But if our generation flatters itself that it discovered sex, it is wrong. Were there no cakes and ale before girls bobbed their hair and smoked cigarettes? Yes, by Saint Anne, and ginger was hot i' the mouth too. (G. Gould, ‘The English Novel of Today’, ch. IV) — Напрасно наше поколение кичится тем, что оно открыло секс. Это не так. В чем, в чем, а в радостях жизни наши деды знали толк, когда стриженых девиц с сигаретой во рту еще и в помине не было. Клянусь святой Анной, и они умели любить.
