It's like the old maxim of "you can tell somebody something and show them, but if they do it they really learn it." Это как в старой поговорке: "Можно рассказывать и показывать, но человек не поймёт, пока сам не сделает."
The dire outcomes proved De Tocqueville’s famous maxim that “the most dangerous moment for a bad government is when it begins to reform itself.” Ужасающий итог подтвердил знаменитое изречение де Токвиля о том, что «самый опасный момент для плохого правительства наступает тогда, когда оно начинает само себя реформировать».
It is therefore no wonder that literature generally accepts the lex specialis as a valid maxim of interpretation or conflict-solution technique in public international law, too, although it is seldom given lengthy treatment. Поэтому неудивительно, что авторы как правило признают lex specialis действующим инструментом толкования или разрешения конфликта также в публичном международном праве, хотя этому аспекту редко уделяется много внимания.
With the abolition of the estate tax, the Republicans would finally realize their long-held ambition of creating a dynastic plutocracy – a far cry from the “equality of opportunity” maxim the party once trumpeted.

In contrast, the social sciences adhere to the maxim that the best way to study humans is to interact with them, typically by getting them to do and say things that they might otherwise not.

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!
