    1. to search; 2. to look for; 3. to scour; 4. to ransack; 5. to comb; 6. to raid; 7. to go through; 8. to turn something upside down/inside out
    Русское искать, как и его ближайший эквивалент to look for, дают общее понятие поиска. Степень интенсивности поиска и его характер передаются как в английском, так и в русском языках другими словами.
    1. to search — искать, разыскивать, шарить, обшарить, обыскивать (тщательно осматривать что-либо, кого-либо, пытаться обнаружить что-либо важное, вредное или спрятанное): The guard searched the prisoner. — Надзиратель обыскал заключенного. The police searched the house for drugs. — Полиция обыскала весь дом в поисках наркотиков. The child searched his pockets for some sweets. — Ребенок обшарил все карманы, нет ли где конфет./Ребенок шарил по карманам в поисках конфет. Глагол to search вызывает представление об охоте за чем-либо; розыски каких-либо фактов, сведений подобно раскапыванию чего-либо в земле; эта образность присутствует в нижеследующих словосочетаниях: I have been hunting for that book all day. — Я разыскивал эту книгу весь день./Я весь день провел в поисках этой книги./Я охотился за этой книгой целый день. The detectives were on their trail at once. — Сыщики сразу напали на их след. They managed to track down his childhood friends. — Им удалось разыскать друзей его детства. We ran her to earth/ground in a London hotel. — Мы разыскали ее в лондонской гостинице./Мы обнаружили ее в лондонской гостинице. She was being hunted by photographers. — Фотографы преследовали ее. The police swooped as soon as the gang appeared. — Полиция нагрянула, как только эта банда появилась. She was ferreting around in the desk. — Она рылась в своем ящике в столе. She fished inside her bag for her wallet. — Она рылась в своей сумке в поисках кошелька. I trawled through the documents at the library. — Я просматривала документы в библиотеке. We had been completely thrown off the scent. — Мы были совершенно сбиты со следа. There is no point in sniffing around here, you won't find anything. — Тут разнюхивать бесполезно, вы ничего не найдете. Let me know if you dig up/turn up anything about him. — Сообщите мне, если вы раскопаете что-либо о нем. I unearthed some useful facts and figures. — Я раскопал кое-какие полезные факты и цифры. The facts came to light only after a long investigation. — Эти факты увидели светтолько после длительных исследований./Эти факты были обнародованы только после длительных исследований. We left no stone unturned in our search for the truth. — В поисках истины мы не оставили камня на камне. The book is a gold mine of information. — Книга — кладезь сведений. I think that this will prove a rich seam to mine for your research. — Я думаю, что это будет очень полезно для вашего исследования./Я думаю, что это окажется для вас золотой жилой. It took me a long time to find it, but I finally struck gold/oil. — Я потратила много времени на поиски, но в конце концов добилась успеха. You need to put in a lot of spadework. — Вам надо приложить много усилий./Вам надо проделать много черновой работы. The journalists we grubbing around for something to print. — Журналисты разыскивали что-нибудь достойное печати. They raked up a lot of scandal. — Они откопали/разворошили кучу сплетен.
    2. to look for — искать, разыскивать (пытаться найти кого- либо/что-либо, кого/чего нет на месте): I'm looking for Sam, have you seen him? — Я ищу Сэма, вы его не видели? The kids were told to go to the back yard and look for the lost ball. —Детям велели пойти во двор и поискать там потерянный мяч. 1 have been looking everywhere for that key and you had it all the lime! — Я всюду разыскивал этот ключ, а он все это время был у тебя!
    3. to scour — искать, разыскивать, прочесывать (очень тщательно искать то, что очень важно и то, что трудно найти: документ, рукопись и т. п.): A team of detectives is scouring the area for the murder weapon. — Бригада сыщиков обыскивает всю территорию в поисках орудия убийства./Бригада сыщиков прочесывает весь район, разыскивая орудие убийства. Не spent half an hour scouring the newspaper for any mention of the fire. — Он потратил полчаса на поиски в газете хотя бы одного упоминания об этом пожаре.
