In the Court's view the useof slang words and emphasized quotations, rather than “a literary language that would be appropriate for such a criticism”, showed that the expressions employed “were used with the intention to belittle the private plaintiff and expose him to ridicule, and therefore this and such an act of his, though it was done within the performance of the journalist profession, is indeed a criminal offence [of insult]”. Суд счел, что использование жаргонных выражений и цитат, а не " литературного языка, который был бы адекватным для такой критики " свидетельствует о том, что использованные выражения " были направлены на унижение истца и представление его в смешном виде и, следовательно, подобное действие, хотя оно и было совершено в рамках исполнения журналистских профессиональных обязанностей, является, действительно, уголовно наказуемым преступлением (в виде оскорбления) ".

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.
