11 default
•• * Это слово примерно одинаково часто употребляется в «финансовом» и в «компьютерном» значениях. Но интересно также его переносное значение, не зафиксированное пока в переводных словарях, во всяком случае в ABBYY Lingvo. American Heritage Dictionary определяет его так: а situation or condition that obtains in the absence of active intervention. Пример из New York Times:
•• People learn from past experience, daily life and the news media, and they flesh out their world view based on their default values.
•• В точных науках default value – значение, принимаемое по умолчанию, но здесь values явно ценности. В переводе можно было бы воспользоваться кавычками для того, чтобы подчеркнуть некоторую необычность данного словоупотребления – хотя ясно, что хочет сказать автор:
•• Люди черпают знания из опыта, повседневной жизни и СМИ и формируют собственный взгляд на мир, исходя из «своих» ценностей.
•• Можно, наверное, и так: ...исходя из укорененных в их сознании ценностей. Другой интересный пример:
•• Denying the possibility of a sustainable Palestinian state leaves only one default option: the one-state, bi-national solution that signifies the end of Israel as the home of the Jewish people. (Washington Post)
•• Default кажется здесь даже несколько избыточным (единственный остающийся вариант и вариант, выпадающий, так сказать, автоматически, – в общем одно и то же). Но, наверное, автору (и довольно придирчивым к стилю редакторам газеты) виднее. В переводе можно, например, так:
•• Отказывать палестинцам в жизнеспособном государстве значит с неизбежностью вести дело к единственному остающемуся варианту. Этот вариант – одно государство, две нации – означал бы конец Израиля как национального очага евреев.
•• В двуязычном словаре в качестве соответствий атрибутивного default возможны варианты первоначальный, внутренне присущий, принятый. By default часто может передаваться русским по умолчанию, поскольку это выражение нередко употребляется и у нас в переносном смысле. Другие варианты – автоматически, неизбежно.
•• Стоит заметить, что если у нас для обозначения финансово-экономического кризиса 1998 года употребляется слово дефолт, то в англоязычной литературе на эту тему чаще говорят о financial crisis (иногда economic crisis):
•• The Russian financial crisis of the summer of 1998 shared many features of other financial crises in recent years. (Из доклада ЮНКТАД)
•• Слово же default употребляется в словосочетании default on obligations/debts (дефолт по обязательствам, невыполнение обязательств):
•• Uneximbank, part of a major group owned by media tycoon Vladimir Potanin, told its European creditors that it was unable to meet payments on $250m of eurobonds. There has never before been a default on such debt (news.bbc.co.uk).
