5 BRÓÐIR
(gen., dat., and acc. bróður, pl. brœðr), m.1) brother;2) friar.* * *gen. dat. acc. bróður; pl. nom. acc. bræðr, gen. bræðra, dat. bræðrum: in mod. common usage irregular forms occur, as gen. sing. bróðurs; nom. sing., and gen. dat. acc. are also sometimes confounded, esp. in keeping the nom. form bróðir through all cases, or even the reverse (but rarely) in taking bróður as a nom.; another irregularity is acc. pl. with the article, bræður-nar instead of bræður-na, which latter form only survives in writing, the former in speaking. There is besides an obsolete poetical monosyllabic form brœðr, in nom. dat. acc. sing. and nom. acc. pl.; gen. sing. bræðrs; cp. such rhymes as brœðr—œðri, in a verse of Einar Skúlason (died about 1170); bræðr (dat.) Sinfjötla, Hkv. 2. 8, as nom. sing., Fagrsk. 54, v. l. (in a verse), etc., cp. Lex. Poët. This form is very rare in prose, vide however Nj., Lat. Vers. Johnsonius, 204, 333, v. 1., and a few times in Stj., e. g. síns bræðr, sinn bræðr, 160; it seems to be a Norse form, but occurs now and then in Icel. poetry even of the 15th century, e. g. bræðr nom. sing. rhymes with ræðr, Skáld H. 3. 11, G. H. M. ii. 482, but is quite strange to the spoken language: [Gr. φράτηρ; Lat. frāter; Goth. brôþar; A. S. brôðar; Engl. brother; Germ. bruder; Swed.-Dan. broder, pl. brödre]:—a brother: proverbs referring to this word—saman er bræðra eign bezt at sjá, Gísl. 17; einginn or annars bróðir í leik; móður-bræðrum verða menn líkastir, Bs. i. 134: a distinction is made between b. samfeðri or sammæðri, a brother having the same father or mother, Grág. i. 170 sqq.: in mod. usage more usual al-bróðir, brother on both sides; hálf-bróðir, a half-brother; b. skilgetinn, frater germanus móður-bróðir, a mother’s brother; föður-bróðir, a father’s brother, uncle; afa-bróðir, a grand-uncle on the father’s side; ömmu bróðir, a grand-uncle on the mother’s side; tengda-bróðir, a brother-in-law: in familiar talk an uncle is called ‘brother,’ and an aunt ‘sister.’ The ties of brotherhood were most sacred with the old Scandinavians; a brotherless man was a sort of orphan, cp. the proverb, berr er hverr á baki nema sér bróður eigi; to revenge a brother’s slaughter was a sacred duty; nú tóku þeir þetta fastmælum, at hvárr þeirra skal hefna annars eðr eptir mæla, svá sem þeir sé sambornir bræðr, Bjarn. 58: the word bróðurbani signifies a deadly foe, with whom there can be no truce, Hm. 88, Sdm. 35, Skm. 16, Hdl. 28; instances from the Sagas, Dropl. S. (in fine), Heiðarv. S. ch. 22 sqq., Grett. S. ch. 50. 92 sqq., E ch. 23, Ld. ch. 53 sqq., etc. The same feeling extended to foster-brotherhood, after the rite of blending blood has been performed; see the graphical descriptions in Fbr. S. (the latter part of the Saga), Gísl. ch. 14 sqq., etc. The universal peace of Fróði in the mythical age is thus described, that ‘no one will draw the sword even if he finds his brother’s slayer bound,’ Gs. verse 6; of the slaughter preceding and foreboding the Ragnarök ( the end of the world) it is said, that brothers will fight and put one another to death, Vsp. 46.II. metaph.:1. in a heathen sense; fóst-bróðir, foster-brother, q. v.; eið-bróðir, svara-bróðir, ‘oath-brother;’ leik-bróðir, play-brother, play-fellow: concerning foster-brothership, v. esp.

the seventh was Balarāma who was saved by being abstracted from the womb of Devakī andᅠ transferred to that of Rohiṇī;
the eighth was Kṛishṇa who was born with black skin andᅠ a peculiar mark on his breast;
his father Vasu-deva managed to escape from Mathurā with the child, andᅠ favoured by the gods found a herdsman named Nanda whose wife Yaṡo-dā had just been delivered of a son which Vasu-deva conveyed to Devakī after substituting his own in its place
Nanda with his wife Yaṡo-dā took the infant Kṛishṇa andᅠ settled first in Gokula orᅠ Vraja, andᅠ afterwards in Vṛindāvana, where Kṛishṇa andᅠ Bala-rāma grew up together, roaming in the woods andᅠ joining in the sports of the herdsmen's sons;
Kṛishṇa as a youth contested the sovereignty of Indra, andᅠ was victorious over that god, who descended from heaven to praise Kṛishṇa, andᅠ made him lord over the cattle Hariv. 3787 ff.; 7456 ff. VP. ;
Kṛishṇa is described as sporting constantly with the Gopīs orᅠ shepherdesses Hariv. 4078 ff.; 8301 ff. VP. Gīt. ;
of whom a thousand became his wives, though only eight are specified, Rādhā being the favourite Hariv. 6694 ff.; 9177 ff. VP. ;
Kṛishṇa built andᅠ fortified a city called Dvārakā in Gujarāt, andᅠ thither transported the inhabitants of Mathurā after killing Kaṇsa;

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. -
9 Cleft constructions
↑ EmphasisДля выделения (см. Emphasis) отдельного члена предложения в английском языке существуют специальные выделительные конструкции.1) it + be + noun + relative clause.Для выделения существительного или именной группы используется следующая конструкция: местоимение it, глагол be, выделяемая именная группа и основное предложение, оформленное как придаточное определительное (см. Relative clause). Выделено может быть:а) подлежащее:If there has been a quarrel, it is Robert who has shot Mark. (=... Robert has shot Mark). — Если и была ссора, то это Роберт выстрелил в Марка.
б) прямое дополнение:Of all men, it was he whom she would have chosen were she mistress of her destinies; and he was going to escape her. (= Of all men, she would have chosen him...). — Из всех мужчин, будь она хозяйкой своей судьбы, она бы выбрала именно его; и вот теперь он уходил от нее.
в) непрямое дополнение:It is to you that I must speak first. (= I must speak to you first). — Именно с тобой я должен поговорить в первую очередь.
г) обстоятельство:It was due to Anna's good sense that a cautious letter was written to the uncle in Berlin suggesting that Cecilie should be taken away. ( = A cautious letter was written... due to Anna's good sense). — Благодаря благоразумию Анны дядюшке в Берлин было предусмотрительно написано письмо с советом забрать Сесилию.
2) wh- word +... +be...а) Другая выделительная конструкция образуется так: основное предложение оформляется как придаточное, введенное вопросительным словом (см. Wh - words), чаще всего словом what. За ним следует глагол be и выделяемый фрагмент предложения. Если требуется выделить сказуемое, то основной глагол дублируется в придаточном предложении первым вспомогательным глаголом (см. Auxiliary verbs, 2) в соответствующей форме.What we do is write him a little note to be given to him after we are gone. ( = We will write him a little note...). — А мы напишем ему записку, которую ему передадут, когда мы уйдем.
But what he does do is turn his back on her and drive away, leaving her helpless and naked in the middle of the night. (= He turns his back on her...) — Но он отворачивается и уезжает прочь, оставляя ее в ночи нагой и беспомощной.
б) Несколько реже такая же конструкция встречается в обратном порядке: в начале предложения идет выделяемое слово, за ним глагол be и придаточное предложение. -
