Я уезжаю через неделю, завтра я весь день работаю, а вечером сижу дома. – I’m leaving in a week – tomorrow I’ll work/I’m working all day and in the evening I’ll be home.

10. Перевод конструкций типа «то, что» «чтобы»

a) Сокращение и переосмысление

Утешение было только в том, что он уезжал всего на несколько дней. – The only consolation was that he would be away for long/was leaving for only a few days.
б) использование деепричастного оборота (это идиоматичнее и короче)

Мы начали вечер с того, что предложили всем потанцевать. – We started the party/evening by suggesting/with the suggestion that everyone dance.
Он начал с того, что лично познакомился со всеми.- Не began by introducing himself to everyone/by getting personally acquainted with everyone.
в) Порой «чтобы» не переводится, и время глагола определяется контекстом:

Я не видел, чтобы он чистил зубы. - I didn't see him brush his teeth/I never saw him brush his teeth.
Я хочу, чтобы вы меня правильно поняли. - I want you to understand me correctly/to get what I mean.
г) to + infinitive вместо довольно неуклюжей конструкции in order to или so as to

Я вернулся с тем, чтобы предупредить вас. - I came back to warn you.
Я пришел не с тем, чтобы спорить с вами. - I didn't come to argue with you.
д) Иногда можно заменить «чтобы» словами so that:

Говори, чтобы все поняли. - Speak so that everyone understands/gets the point.

11. Придаточные предложения, которые начинаются с «как» или с «как бы», можно перевести на английский с помощью условного наклонения или деепричастия.

Он боялся, как бы не простудиться. - Не was afraid of catching cold/He was afraid he might/could catch cold.

He забыть бы его адрес! - See you don't/take care not to/be sure you don't/I mustn't/I must take care not to forget his address.
13. перевод вида глагола

а) Переводчик должен постоянно иметь в виду, что в английском языке используются совершенно разные глаголы для передачи смысла обоих членов одной русской видовой пары, как, например, «сделать» и «делать»

Что же делал Бельтов в продолжение этих десяти лет? Все или почти все. Что он сделал? Ничего или почти ничего. -
What did Beltov do during these ten years? Everything or almost everything. What did he achieve? Nothing, or almost nothing.
уверять — try to convince
уверить — convince решать — try to solve решить — solve. учиться — study научиться — learn отыскивать — look for отыскать — find сдавать экзамен - to take an exam сдать экзамен - to pass an exam поступать в университет - to apply to a university поступить в университет - be admitted/get into a university
б) При переводе глаголов несовершенного вида нельзя не подчеркнуть, что речь идет о попытках говорящего или кого-то другого что-либо сделать.

Войска брали крепость целый месяц. - The troops tried for a whole month to take the fortress.
Я к нему долго привыкал, но наконец привык. - For a long time I tried to get used to him, and finally did. He оправдывайся! - Don't try to justify yourselfl/Don't try to make excuses!
с)Существует также целая категория особых глаголов, у которых несовершенный вид указывает на состояние, которое является результатом завершенного действия и передается совершенным видом.

Я «понимаю» is the result of «я понял», and note that English "I understand" translates them both. The formal pair «разобраться/разбираться» are exactly the same; the verb in «я разобрался в этом» is an achievement with the change-of-state meaning characteristic of perfectives, while the verb in «я разбираюсь в этом» signals the state resulting from the achievement. They may both be translated as / understand, but the former means / have figured out (come to understand), while the latter means I understand (as a result of having figured out). These verbs belong to a very large group of perfectives whose change of state is inceptive, whose imperfectives denote the new, resulting state: «понял, понимаю, поверил, верю, понравиться, нравиться».

14. Перевод безличных конструкций

а) Во множественном числе третьего лица безличную конструкцию можно переделать в пассивную:

Посетителей просят оставить верхнюю одежду в гардеробе. -
Visitors are requested/asked to leave/Visitors must leave/check their coats in the coatroom.
б) Можно вставить субъект/подлежащее:

Об этом часто приходится слышать. - I/he/we/they often hear about this.
Чувствовалось, что он доволен. - I/we/they felt/could feel that he was pleased.
в) В некоторых контекстах возвратные глаголы переводятся как переходные с добавлением подлежащего:

Под вакуумом понимается пространство, не содержащее вещества. - A vacuum is defined as space/By a vacuum we mean space/The definition of a vacuum is space/A vacuum is understood to be space free from/not containing/devoid of matter.

В данном случае сложное движение рассматривается как результат двух движений. - In this case complex movement is considered as/considered to be/we see complex movement as/we define complex movement as the result of two movements.

г) Когда русское местоимение является дополнением безличных глаголов, то можно переделать в подлежащее/субъект.

В ушах звенело, во рту пересохло. - His/my ears were ringing, his/my throat was dry.
Меня неудержимо клонило в сон. - I felt an irresistible urge to sleep/I just couldn't stay awake/I felt horribly/terribly/awfully sleepy. Ее потянуло в Париж. - She felt an urge to go to Paris/Paris was calling to her/She felt like going to Paris. Мне жаль мою подругу. - I'm sorry for my girlfriend.

@ДЕЙСТВИТЕЛЬНОЕ ПРИЧАСТИЕ НАСТОЯЩЕГО ВРЕМЕНИ

1. переводится на английский глагольной формой на -ing.

Девушка, читающая книгу, очень красива - The girl who is reading the book is very pretty.

2. переводится с пропуском причастия, т.е. с помощью короткого оборота с предлогом и краткого придаточного предложения

см. ГЛАГОЛ

@СТРАДАТЕЛЬНЫЙ ПРИЧАСТНЫЙ ОБОРОТ НАСТОЯЩЕГО ВРЕМЕНИ

1. переводятся с русского языка скорее как прилагательные, чем как причастия.

Проводимая страной политика одобряется всем народом. - The policy pursued (not "which is being pursued") by our country has the backing/approval of the entire people.

2. в некоторых случаях причастие можно просто опустить:

Ясно определились позиции, занимаемые обеими сторонами по таким жизненно важным вопросам. - The positions of both sides on such vitally important questions are now clear.

***

см. ГЛАГОЛ
@
- имеющийся, сложившийся, создавшийся

16. Перевод деепричастий.

а) Прошедшее время из русского языка нередко переходит в английский в качестве деепричастия.

Мы видели, как дети купались в реке. We saw the children swimming in the river.

б) Деепричастие настоящего времени подчас приходится переводить на английский прошедшим:

Раза два в год бывал в Москве и, возвращаясь оттуда, рассказывал об этом. Не would visit/used to visit Moscow a couple of times a year, and after returning home/on his return home tell/would tell about it.

в) Деепричастие прошедшего времени в некоторых случаях становится деепричастием и в настоящем:

Сев за рояль, она заиграла вальс. - Sitting at the piano, she played a waltz.

г) При переводе русских деепричастий бывает необходимым объяснение причинных или временных обстоятельств:

Выслушав меня внимательно, вы быстро меня поймете. If you listen to me carefully, you'll understand quickly.
Почувствовав голод, они решили обедать без гостей. - Because/since they were hungry, they decided to eat without/without waiting for/the guests. Переехав в собственную квартиру, он стал гораздо более самостоятельным человеком. - When/after he moved to his own apartment he became a lot more independent.
д) В описательных деепричастных оборотах можно заменить деепричастие конструкцией «with + имя существительное»:

Он сидел, закрыв глаза. - Не sat/was sitting with his eyes closed.
«Это очень смешно!» — сказал он, засмеявшись. "That's very funny," he said with a laugh.
е) Так называемые «безличные» деепричастия, которые часто встречаются в Русских технических текстах, иногда заменяются существительными или перед ними вставляется предлог.

Используя эти данные, можно приближенно предсказать процесс. - Use of this data allows us to make an approximate prediction of the process/By using this data, we can make...
Изучая эту таблицу, легко видеть, что... - Study of this table makes it clear that.../In studying this table we clearly see that…
17. Сокращение глагольных конструкций

Подчас русское словосочетание выражается одним английским глаголом. Смысл передается при помощи приставки или суффикса en-, un-, -ize, -ate.

утверждать то, что оказалось чистейшей чепухой – to talk utter nonsense
располагать в алфавитном порядке – to alphabetize заставить грубой силой – to bludgeon приводить в систему, распределять по категориям – list, categorize лишать законной силы – to invalidate выводить из строя – to incapacitate поймать в ловушку – to entrap
