В САМОМ ДЕЛЕ PrepP Invar fixed WO1. ( usu. adv(in refer, to the nature of s.o. or sth.) in actuality (as opposed to as perceived, portrayed etc by s.o.): in realityin (actual) fact really actually.Он (Давид) почувствовал впервые, что и он смертен, не по-сказочному, а в самом деле, с невероятной очевидностью (Гроссман 2). For the first time David felt very clearly that he himself was mortal, not just in a fairy-tale way, but in actual fact (2a).Одни почитают меня хуже, другие лучше, чем я в самом деле... (Лермонтов 1). Some think me worse, others better, than I really am (Id). Some deem me worse, others better than I actually am (1a).2. (Particle or sent adv (often parenth)) used to confirm or ask for confirmation of sth. stated previouslyalso used to express one's agreement with, seconding of etc sth. said by anotherin factactually really indeed.Конечно, сказать, что я это (мещанскую ненависть жены Марата ко всякого рода чудачествам) заметил и принял к сведению, было бы неточно. Я в самом деле это заметил, но тогда подумал, что... это мне показалось (Искандер 2). Of course, it would be imprecise to say that I noticed this (Marat's wife's bourgeois hatred for any kind of eccentricity) and took it into account. I did in fact notice it, but at the time I thought I was imagining things (2a).Многие очевидцы этого утра теперь утверждают, что скот села Анхара предчувствовал начало боя, хотя с достоверностью этого утверждения трудно согласиться... Так как голодный скот, находясь взаперти, всегда даёт о себе знать, теперь трудно установить, в самом деле он предчувствовал кровопролитие или нет (Искандер 3). Many eyewitnesses now claim that the livestock of the village of Ankhara had a premonition the battle would begin that morning, although this claim is hard to authenticate....Since hungry animals who find themselves penned up always make themselves heard, it is difficult to establish now whether they actually had a premonition of bloodshed or not (3a).Свинкин дело потерял!» - «В самом деле? Что ж директор?» - спросил Обломов дрожащим голосом (Гончаров 1). "Svinkin lost a file of documents." "Really? What did the director do?" Oblomov asked in an unsteady voice (1b).«Кто тебе сказал, что Монина собираются уволить?» - «Декан». - «В самом деле?» - «В самом деле». "Who told you they were planning on firing Monin?" "The dean." "Really?" "Really."...Я этого так не оставлю, я позвоню, я пойду к Каретникову, ему ничего не стоит, ему стоит только снять трубку...»...Откликаясь на просьбы Ефима, Каретников и в самом деле кому-то звонил или писал письма на своём депутатском бланке и... отказа на его звонки или письма, как правило, не бывало (Войнович 6). "...I won't leave it at this. I'll call Karetnikov.П1 go see Karetnikov. All Karet-nikov has to do is pick up the phone..." Karetnikov had indeed made phone calls on Yefim's behalf, or written letters, using his official stationery, and his calls and his letters always did their work (6a).3. (sent advoften preceded by Conj «и») used to introduce a statement justifying, supporting etc sth. previously statedindeedafter all.«Как ты едешь? Ну же, потрогивай!» И в самом деле, Селифан давно уже ехал зажмуря глаза, изредка только потряхивая впросонках вожжами по бокам дремавших тоже лошадей... (Гоголь 3). "You call this driving? Come on, put your whip to them, get going!" And indeed Selifan had been driving for a long time with his eyes closed, only now and then flipping the reins against the flanks of the horses, who were dozing too (3c)....В комнату вошла... симпатичная женщина в белом чистом халате и сказала Ивану: «Доброе утро!» Иван не ответил, так как счёл это приветствие в данных условиях неуместным. В самом деле, засадили здорового человека в лечебницу... (Булгаков 9). Into the room came a kind-looking woman in a clean white coverall and said to Ivan, "Good morning!" Ivan did not reply, as he felt the greeting out of place in the circumstances. They had, after all, dumped a perfectly healthy man in the hospital.. (9b).4. (Particle) used to intensify an expression of indignation, annoyance, surprise etc, or to intensify a request or demand that s.o. do (or stop doing) sth.: really!honestly! (with прекрати, перестань etc) (stop...,) will you? (when used with a negated word or phrase) certainly (not)!«Экий я дурак в самом деле!» (Гоголь 3). "What a fool I am, really!" (3b). "Oh, what a fool I am, honestly!" (3a).(Ислаев:) Michel, однако ты ненадолго уезжаешь?.. (Ракитин:) Не знаю, право... Я думаю... надолго... (Ислаев:) Ведь тебя здесь заменить некому. Не Большинцов же в самом деле! (Тургенев 1). (I.:) Michel, you aren't going to leave us for long, are you?.. (R..) I really don't know....1 think.. for a long time.. (I.:) But we have no one to replace you here! Certainly not Bolshintsov! (1b)
