- fall a victim to smb, smthCHOICE OF WORDS:Русское существительное "жертва" соответствует английским существительным victim, casualty, sacrifice. Victim означает пострадавший в результате преступления, серьезной болезни или стихийных бедствий. Casualty означает пострадавший, раненый или убитый в военных действиях или авариях. Существительные victim и casualty относятся к одушевленным предметам, главным образом, к людям. Существительное sacrifice может относиться как к одушевленным, так и к неодушевленным предметам. Существительное sacrifice обозначает сознательный отказ от того, чем жертвуют ради каких-либо целей: The tribe used to kill a goat as a sacrifice to the god of the Sun. Племя убивало козу, принося ее в жертву Богу Солнца. She was not ready to make a sacrifice of her career. Она не была готова пожертвовать своей карьерой
