Английский язык с Винни-Пухом - [16]
backwards [ˈbækwədz], look [], after []
And Christopher Robin and Rabbit and all Rabbit's friends and relations went head-over-heels backwards… and on the top of them came Winnie-the-Pooh — free!
So, with a nod of thanks to his friends, he went on with his walk through the forest, humming proudly to himself. But, Christopher Robin looked after him lovingly, and said to himself, “Silly old Bear!”
Chapter 3,
IN WHICH POOH AND PIGLET GO HUNTING AND NEARLY CATCH A WOOZLE[20]
Глава 3,
В которой Пух и Пятачок идут на охоту и чуть не ловят Расплоха
THE Piglet lived in a very grand house in the middle of a beech-tree (Пятачок жил в очень большом/роскошном доме в середине бука), and the beech-tree was in the middle of the forest (а бук был = стоял в середине леса), and the Piglet lived in the middle of the house (а Пятачок жил в середине дома). Next to his house was a piece of broken board which had: “TRESPASSERS W[21]” on it (возле его дома был кусок поломанной доски, на которой было /написано/: ПОСТОРОННИМ В; to trespass — противоправно нарушать владение). When Christopher Robin asked the Piglet what it meant (когда Кристофер Робин спросил Пятачка, что это значит), he said it was his grandfather's name, and had been in the family for a long time (он сказал, /что/ это имя его дедушки и /она (доска)/ находится в семье уже долгое время). Christopher Robin said you couldn't be called Trespassers W (Кристофер Робин сказал, /что/ не может быть, чтобы вас звали Посторонним В), and Piglet said yes, you could, because his grandfather was (а Пятачок сказал, /что/ да, вас могут /так звать/, ведь его дедушку /так звали/), and it was short for Trespassers Will, which was short for Trespassers William (и это сокращенно от Посторонним Вилли, что является сокращением от Посторонним Вильям). And his grandfather had had two names in case he lost one (и у его дедушки было два имени, на тот случай, если он одно потеряет) — Trespassers after an uncle, and William after[22] Trespassers (Посторонним в честь дяди, и Вильям после Посторонним).

“I've got two names (у меня два имени),” said Christopher Robin carelessly (сказал беспечно Кристофер Робин).
“Well, there you are, that proves it,” said Piglet (ну, вот видишь, это доказывает то, /что я говорил/, — сказал Пятачок).
One fine winter's day when Piglet was brushing away the snow in front of his house (в один прекрасный зимний день, когда Пятачок сметал снег перед домом), he happened to look up, and there was Winnie-the-Pooh (он случайно поднял глаза, и там оказался = как раз был Винни-Пух). Pooh was walking round and round in a circle, thinking of something else (Пух ходил и ходил по кругу, думая о чем-то /там/ еще), and when Piglet called to him (и когда Пятачок позвал его), he just went on walking (он просто продолжал идти).

“Hallo!” said Piglet, “what are you doing (эй! — сказал Пятачок, — что ты делаешь)?”
“Hunting,” said Pooh (охочусь, — сказал Пух).
“Hunting what (охотишься на что = кого[23])?”
“Tracking something (кое-кого выслеживаю),” said Winnie-the-Pooh very mysteriously (сказал Винни-Пух очень таинственно).
“Tracking what?” said Piglet, coming closer (выслеживаешь кого? — спросил Пятачок, подходя ближе).
“That's just what I ask myself (это как раз то, о чем я спрашиваю себя = как раз об этом я себя и спрашиваю). I ask myself, What (я спрашиваю себя, на Кого)?”
“What do you think you'll answer (/и/ что ты думаешь, ты ответишь)?”
