  • 13 billy-bumbler

    сущ.; SK, DT
    также просто: bumbler
    см. тж Oy
    1. путаник, ушастик-путаник
    2. косолап, трепотун ( в некоторых переводах)
    ••
    Зверек похожий на помесь барсука и енота с длинным и скрученным, напоминающим покрытую шерстью пружину, хвостом. Мясо его, жесткое и кислое, было несъедобно.

    Up ahead, a large creature that looked like a badger crossed with a raccoon ambled out of the woods. It looked at them with its large, gold-rimmed eyes, twitched its sharp, whiskery snout as if to say Huh! Big deal!, then strolled the rest of the way across the road and disappeared again. Before it did, Eddie noted its tail—long and closely coiled, it looked like a fur-covered bedspring. / “What was that, Roland?” / “A billy-bumbler.” / “No good to eat?” / Roland shook his head. “Tough. Sour. I’d rather eat dog.” — Впереди из-за деревьев на дорогу вперевалку вышел довольно крупный зверек, похожий на помесь барсука с енотом. Он посмотрел на путешественников большими глазами, обведенными золотистой каемкой, презрительно дернул острым усатым рыльцем – “Ха! Подумаешь!”, протопал на другую сторону и вновь скрылся в лесу. Но Эдди успел заметить хвост – длинный, свернутый тугими кольцами, он напоминал пушистую матрасную пружину. / – Кто это, Роланд? / – Косолап. / – Есть его можно? / Роланд отрицательно покачал головой. / – Жесткий. Кислый. Я уж лучше собаку съем. (ТБ 3)

    Nearby, a dozen fat billy-bumblers sat upon the ruins, watching the pilgrims with their odd gold-ringed eyes. — Неподалеку в руинах расселась дюжина сытых, гладких косолапов. Они провожали пилигримов удивительными глазами с золотым ободком. (ТБ 3)

    He once more turned his attention to the animal which had awakened him. It looked like a combination raccoon and woodchuck, with a dash of dachshund thrown in for good measure. / “How you doin, boy?” he asked softly. / “Oy!” the billy-bumbler replied at once, still looking at him anxiously. Its voice was low and deep, almost a bark; the voice of an English footballer with a bad cold in his throat. — Он вновь переключил внимание на разбудившего его зверька (похожего на помесь барсука с енотом, приправленную чуточкой таксы) и тихонько сказал: – Привет, мальчик. / – Чик! – немедленно откликнулся косолап, глядя по-прежнему тревожно. Голос у него оказался низкий, глубокий, очень похожий на лай – ни дать ни взять футболист-англичанин, страдающий сильной ангиной. (ТБ 3)
