Another way of thinking about it is instead of thinking of babies and children as being like defective grownups, we should think about them as being a different developmental stage of the same species - kind of like caterpillars and butterflies - except that they're actually the brilliant butterflies who are flitting around the garden and exploring, and we're the caterpillars who are inching along our narrow, grownup, adult path. С другой стороны, вместо того, чтобы смотреть на детей, как на недовзрослых, мы должны думать о них, как о другой стадии развития того же вида - что-то вроде гусениц и бабочек - только дети - это прекрасные бабочки, порхающие по саду и исследующие его, а мы - гусеницы, ползущие по длинной, узкой дорожке нашей взрослой жизни.
"That is to say, your thoughts and words flit and dart, disconcertedly elusive at times, but when caught and examined - ahh, such a wonder, such a delightful reward. "Хочу сказать, что Ваши мысли и слова порхают и несутся, приводя в отчаяние своей неуловимостью, но если их ухватить и проанализировать - о, какое это чудо, какая восхитительная награда!
If there's a girl with her hands in the cookie jar thinking she's so clever and flitting hither and thither what does she know of passion? Если девушка готовящая печенье думает, что она умна, и бегает туда-сюда что она знает о страсти?

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!
