22 off the record
1) конфиденциальный, неофициальный, не подлежащий оглашению в печати [первонач. о сообщениях, делаемых президентом США на пресс-конференции]They sat down and Essex remained standing, smoking his pipe. ‘Now, Al,’ he said to Hamber, ‘Put that paper away. This is all off the record. I know you fellows hate the phrase, but it is unavoidable at this stage.’ (J. Aldridge, ‘The Diplomat’, ch. 7) — Все расселись, но Эссекс продолжал стоять, покуривая трубку. - Слушайте, Эл, - сказал он Хэмберу. - Спрячьте свой блокнот. Все это не для печати. Я знаю, вы, газетчики, не любите этой фразы, но на данной стадии переговоров это неизбежно.
He hesitated a moment, and then asked deliberately, ‘Can we talk off the record for ten minutes?’ I was pressed enough and frayed enough to be irritated by the phrase he used. I reminded him rather too tartly that in diplomacy everything, sooner or later, went on the record. (M. West, ‘The Ambassador’, ch. IV) — Мистер Ментон помолчал, затем осторожно спросил: - Могу я поговорить с вами минут десять неофициально, так сказать, не для стенограммы? Я был так издерган, так устал, что не мог сдержать раздражения. И, пожалуй, излишне язвительно напомнил ему, что в дипломатии все рано или поздно попадает в стенограмму.
I have been present at most of Mr. Menon's press conferences at the UN, and have heard him speak on and off the record. (‘New World Review’) — Мне довелось присутствовать на многих пресс-конференциях, которые устраивал г-н Менон. На этих пресс-конференциях он выступал и с официальными и с неофициальными заявлениями.
2) разг. между нами говоря‘Off the record,’ Dan Orliffe said quietly, ‘Things aren't going too well, are they?’ Alan made a wry grimace. ‘Equally off the record, they couldn't be worse.’ (A. Hailey, ‘In High Places’, ch. VIII) — - Между нами говоря, - спокойно сказал Дэн Орлиф, - дела идут неважно, не так ли? - Между нами говоря, хуже некуда, - и Алан скривил губы.
...this has to be off the record. Understood? (J. B. Priestley, ‘London End’, ch. 7) —...все, о чем мы говорили, должно остаться между нами. Идет?
