ⓘ Come on down! Il s'agit de la formule consacrée du jeu télévisé The Price is Right (dont l'équivalent français est Le Juste prix) qui débuta en 1957 aux États-Unis, et dans les années 80 en Grande-Bretagne. L'animateur de l'émission prononçait ces paroles ("Descendez!") pour inviter les membres du public sélectionnés pour participer au jeu à venir le rejoindre sur la scène. Aujourd'hui on utilise cette formule plaisamment pour dire à quelqu'un d'approcher ou bien pour indiquer à quelqu'un qui doit prononcer un discours ou se produire sur scène qu'il est temps de prendre place.

ⓘ Come up and see me sometime... Cette formule fut utilisée pour la première fois par Mae West dans le film de 1933 She Done Him Wrong (dont le titre français est Lady Lou); la citation exacte était en fait Why don't you come up sometime, see me? ("Pourquoi est-ce que tu ne monterais pas un de ces jours, pour me voir?"). Il s'agit de l'archétype de l'invitation au badinage. Encore aujourd'hui on utilise cette formule en imitant l'air canaille de Mae West.

USAGE:

(1.) В отличие от других глаголов суждения, таких, как to think, to believe, с глаголом to hope в отрицательных предложениях отрицание употребляется с глаголом придаточного, а не главного предложения: I hope she doesno't find it out. Cp. I don't think, she'll find it out. Надеюсь, она это не узнает. В кратких ответах с глаголом to hope в этом значении употребляются наречия not (для отрицания) и so (для утверждения): I hope so. Думаю, что так. I hope not. Думаю, что нет. /Думаю, что это не произойдет. (2.) Русское словосочетание "надеяться что-либо сделать" в значении "думать, ожидать, что что-либо будет сделано" соответствует в английском языке глаголу to expect: We didn't expect to get the answer so quickly. Мы не надеялись/не думали/не рассчитывали получить ответ так быстро. I expect to see him tomorrow. Я рассчитываю/надеюсь увидеть его завтра. (3.) See believe, v (4.) See so, adv; USAGE (1.).
