Важный момент, который стоит отметить, заключается в том, что несмотря на то, что радиостанции играли музыку, которую можно назвать второсортной, этой конкуренции хватило, чтобы в то время сломать легальный картель, владевший доступом к музыке. And the important point to recognize is that even though these broadcasters were broadcasting something you would call second best, that competition was enough to break, at that time, this legal cartel over access to music.
Когда даже союзники относятся с неуважением к друг другу (вспомним известное обращение Джорджа Буша начинающиеся с «Йоу, Блэр», как будто тогдашний премьер-министр Великобритании Тони Блэр был каким-то пастухом) человек естественно задаться вопросом, считается ли их страна тоже второсортной. When even allies are treated with disrespect – recall George W. Bush’s infamous shout of “Yo, Blair,” as if then-British Prime Minister Tony Blair were some cowhand – people naturally wonder whether their country, too, is deemed subservient.
В Великобритании лорд Джон Браун - исполнительный директор, превративший BP из второсортной европейской нефтяной компании в мирового гиганта, - подал в отставку после признания в том, что солгал в суде относительно обстоятельств знакомства с его бывшим компаньоном (оказалось, что он встретил его через мужское эскорт-агентство). In Britain, Lord John Browne, the chief executive who transformed BP from a second-tier European oil company into a global giant, resigned after admitting he had lied in court about the circumstances in which he had met a gay companion (apparently, he met him through a male escort agency).

What is translation in context on PROMT.One

The “Contexts” section on PROMT.One is your translation-in-context tool that helps you find real examples of how words and phrases are used. Just enter a word and the service will show its translation in context — sentences from bilingual sources where this word is used together with its translation into the target language. This helps you understand subtle shades of meaning and correct usage in speech, whether it is a rare term or a common everyday phrase.

Millions of usage examples from real texts

Millions of translation examples are collected automatically from already translated texts: documents, websites, books, movie dialogues and more. Thanks to this, you can see a word in different situations — from formal business style to everyday colloquial speech. For convenience, the results can be filtered by a specific translation or topic, and you can also search within the examples found to quickly focus on the context you need.

How translation in context helps you learn a language

By using the “Contexts” section, you can effectively expand your vocabulary. The service clearly shows how idioms, phrasal verbs and polysemantic words are translated in different contexts. This makes language learning easier: you remember new words together with their real usage and immediately see correct translations in authentic, living language. Take advantage of context-based translation on PROMT.One — learning a language becomes easier and more engaging!
