9 sleeper

Спящий. A sleeper — это большой деревянный брус, на который укладывают рельсы, т. е. шпала. Это также название спального вагона. В мире шпионажа так называют шпиона, который засылается в другую страну и остаётся там без действия на протяжении какого-то времени до тех пор, пока не понадобится его деятельность.
We are only just discovering that the country was riddled with sleepers, who spent many years establishing themselves as respectable citizens before they received instructions from their controllers. — Мы только сейчас начинаем осознавать, что наша страна была наводнена «спящими» агентами, которые жили у нас много лет, зарекомендовали себя уважаемыми гражданами, прежде чем они получали инструкции от своих «хозяев».

3) ( оптом) wholesale; cf. buy up smth. lock, stock and barrel

- Из Лондона поступило указание Гюставу повести с вами торг. Воротилы из Лондона задумали купить у вас ваши труды, так сказать, на корню. (Г. Марков, Сибирь) — 'Gustave has received instructions from London to try and strike a deal with you. People in the City have expressed interests in buying up all your works, lock, stock and barrel.'

llegarse
LLEGAR Llegar a A la hora de traducir llegar a al inglés, tenemos que diferenciar entre arrive in y arrive at. ► Empleamos arrive in con países, ciudades, pueblos {etc}: Esperamos llegar a Italia el día 11 de junio We expect to arrive in Italy on 11 June Llegaremos a Córdoba dentro de dos horas We'll be arriving in Cordoba in two hours' time ► En cambio, se traduce por arrive at cuando nos referimos a lugares más pequeños, como aeropuertos, estaciones, {etc}. La expresión llegar a casa es una excepción, ya que se traduce por arrive/ get home, es decir, sin preposición: Llegamos al aeropuerto con cuatro horas de retraso We arrived at the airport four hours late Llegué a casa completamente agotada I arrived home completely exhausted Para otros usos y ejemplos ver la entrada
