thrust themselves

Толкование Перевод

1 толкать

Глаголу толкать соответствуют английские push, thrust и shove. Push имеет наиболее общее значение 'двигать толчками': to push a wheel-barrow along the road, to push a door open. Thrust и shove имеют в виду применение большой мускульной силы, причем thrust подчеркивает быстроту движения: to thrust (to shove) heavy tables and chairs; they thrust themselves forward. Shove иногда имеет в виду грубые, резкие, поспешные толчки, без применения большой силы: to shove a person out of one's way.

По моим расчётам, «монстр» (ракета) Королёва должен был весить на старте около 400 тонн, и львиная доля этого гигантского веса приходилась на двадцать слабых, но тяжёлых двигателей, которые должны были поднимать самих себя (Владимиров 1). According to my calculations, Ko-rolyov's monster (of a rocket) must have weighed around 400 tons on the ground, and the greater part of this tremendous weight was accounted for by the 20 small-thrust but heavy engines which had to lift themselves into space (1a).

Наконец, на допросах мы начали разбирать бумаги, стихи и записки, собранные следователем (Семёновым). Львиная доля шла на уничтожение, в печь, а некоторые возвращались родным (Ивинская 1). Eventually (during my interrogation), we began to go through all the papers with poems and notes which (the investigator) Semionov had collected together. The bulk of them were afterward destroyed, though some were returned to my relatives (1a).

CAMINO DE SANTIAGO The Camino de Santiago is a medieval pilgrim route stretching from the Pyrenees to Santiago de Compostela in northwest Spain, where tradition has it that the body of Saint James the Apostle (Spain's patron saint) is buried. Those who had made the long, dangerous journey returned proudly wearing on their hat or cloak the venera or concha (scallop shell) traditionally associated with this pilgrimage - Saint James' body had reportedly been found covered in scallops. Today this symbolic shell can still be seen all along the Camino de Santiago, carved on ancient buildings and painted on modern-day road signs marking the historic route for the benefit of tourists and pilgrims. In astronomy the Camino de Santiago is another name for the Vía Láctea (Milky Way), hence the title of Buñuel's famous satirical film about the route to Compostela.

CAMINO DE SANTIAGO

The Galician city of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain, traditionally held to be the burial site of the Apostle St James, was one of the most important Christian pilgrimage centres in Europe during the Middle Ages, second only to Rome. Countless pilgrims made the journey from different parts of Europe to Santiago along recognized pilgrimage routes. The main one crosses the north of Spain from the Pyrenees to Galicia and is known as the Camino de Santiago. Although its religious significance has declined, it has become a popular tourist route attracting a wide range of travellers: nature lovers on day trips, hikers and cyclists, and even latter-day pilgrims, whether solitary walkers or on package tours. Many of them avail themselves of the free or low-cost accommodation provided along the way by local councils and religious institutions.
