         ♦ [Себейкин:] Есть [водка]? [Вася:] Да что ты, полно! [Себейкин:] Надо же! Водка осталась! Когда это такое было-то! (Рощин 2). [S.:] Is there any [vodka] left? [V.:] C'mon, there's plenty! [S.:] What do you know' There's vodka left! When has that ever happened before? (2a).
         ♦ Взглянув на него [дядю Сандро], я почувствовал, что он мне порядочно надоел... И надо же - старый черт почуял дуновение моего робкого бунта (Искандер 4). Looking at him [Uncle Sandro], I became aware that I was good and sick of him.... Wouldn't you know-the old devil got wind of my timid rebellion (4a).
         ♦ "А вы-то сами откуда?" - "С Улейкона", - ответили они. "Ну, братцы", - только и сказал я. С Улейкона пожаловали, надо же! (Аксенов 1). "But now where are you from?" "Uleikon," they answered. "Well, brothers," was all I said. A visit from Uleikon-well I'll be! (1a).
         ♦ "Неужели до драки доходит?" - простодушно удивился Тэдди. "А ты думал! Напишут на тебя похвальную статью, что ты-де проникнут национальным самосознанием, идешь искать критика, а он уже с компанией - и все молодые, задорные крепыши, дети президента..." - " Надо же", - сказал Тэдди сочувственно (Стругацкие 1). "Does it really come to blows?" asked Teddy innocently. "What did you think happens? They give you a good review, they say you're chock full of national self-awareness. You go to find the critic and he's already got his friends with him, and they're all hot-tempered musclemen, Sons of the President." "You don't say," sympathized Teddy (1a).
         ♦ "Надо же, - говорил мальчик, - я тогда был такой маленький, что бедной маме [оленихе] приходилось на колени становиться, чтобы я доставал до вымени" (Искандер 5). "Think of it," the boy would say, "I was so little then that poor Mama [Deer] had to kneel down for me to reach her udder" (5a).
         ♦ "У меня зубы хорошие, фарфоровые, с меня Аркаша Глотов за них четыре сотни содрал..." Я смотрел на него с любопытством: надо же, всегда был такой запуганный, а тут размахался! (Войнович 6). "I have good porcelain teeth.Arkasha Glotov charged me four hundred rubles for them..." I looked at him with curiosity. Who would have thought it? He had always been so timid, yet here he was strutting, and clicking his teeth! (6a).
         Надо же! За арестантом, который тянет голодовку почти два месяца, нужен глаз да глаз: "склонен к побегу" (Марченко 2). What will they think of next! A prisoner who maintains a hunger strike for nearly two months must be closely watched, as he displays "tendencies to try to escape" (2a)
         ♦ Конечно, мысль мелькала у нее и раньше, но - не убедительно. Кто ее в этой мысли убедил: Мансуров-Курильский! Надо же?! (Залыгин 1). Of course this thought had occurred to her before, but it hadn't seemed very convincing. And now who had convinced her of it but Mansurov-Kurilsky! Of all people! (1a).
         ♦ [Ирина:] Понимаете, мы договорились с ним встретиться сегодня в двенадцать часов у Главпочтамта. И надо же: как раз сегодня у нас сочинение (Вампилов 5). [I.:] You see, we agreed to meet at noon today by the main post office. And just my luck, today we had an essay to write (5a).

    откуда, из-за чего и т. п. СЫР-БОР ЗАГОРЕЛСЯ (ГОРИТ) (ВЕСЬ) СЫР-БОР (ЗАГОРЕЛСЯ) из-за кого-чего, от кого-чего all coll VP (why has, it is unclear why etc) some event, commotion, trouble etc occurred: (that's) what (who) sparked the whole thing (that's) what set the fur flying (thatis) what set the whole thing off (that's (person X Is)) the cause of all the trouble (that's) what touched off the whole ruckus (thatfc) what all the commotion was about (that's (person X Is)) the reason for the whole upheaval
    (that's what caused (hence etc)) all the fuss. "„Но ты же угрожал ему (майору) пистолетом, - говорит он, - ты понимаешь, куда он это может повернуть". - п А мы скажем, что он врёт, - отвечаю я, - скажем, что он сам хотел остаться с бабами и от этого весь сыр-бор"» (Искандер 5). "'But you threatened him (the major) with a pistol / he says. 'You realize what he can make this sound like.' And well say he's lying,' I answer. 4W11 say he wanted to stay with the women himself and that's what sparked the whole thing'" (5a).
    Только потом, много позже, рассказал Михаил, из-за чего сыр-бор загорелся (Абрамов 1). Only later, much later, did Mikhail tell her what had set the fur flying (1a).
    А эти-то, из-за которых весь сыр-бор, беспрепятственно выезжают в Палестину для укрепления враждебного государства... (Аксёнов 6)....And those other ones, who are the cause of all the latest trouble, can emigrate to Palestine without hindrance in order to strengthen a hostile state... (6a).
    А потом, добавил Михаил, возвращаясь к тому, из-за чего загорелся сыр-бор, может, Евсей Тихонович вовсе и не за себя хочет получить пенсию, а за детей? (Абрамов 1). And besides, Mikhail added, returning to the subject which had touched off the whole ruckus, maybe it wasn't because of himself that Evsei Tikhonovich felt entitled to the pension, but because of his children (1a).
    Вот опять нам пришло на ум уотергейтское дело. Кто из нас, следивших за его перипетиями по передачам зарубежного радио, не приходил в изумление! Боже мой, из-за чего весь сыр-бор? Президент величайшей страны собирался кого-то подслушать. Всего-навсего (Войнович 3). Once again the Watergate affair comes to mind. Who among us, following its peripeteia on the foreign radio broadcasts, was not amazed? My heavens, what was all the commotion about? The President of the greatest country on earth wanted to eavesdrop on someone. That's all there was to it (3a).
