Who doesn't know such a simple proverb? Кто не знает такую простую поговорку?
To adapt the Chinese proverb, we want help to learn how to fish, rather than to be given fish for food. Или, выражаясь словами китайской поговорки, мы хотим, чтобы нам помогли научиться ловить рыбу, а не давали ее поесть.
As an old Confucian proverb says, “It does not matter how slowly you go, so long as you do not stop.” А как гласит старая конфуцианская поговорка: «Не важно, насколько медленно ты идёшь, главное, что ты не останавливаешься».
As they talk, the leaders of rich countries may strike a self-satisfied pose, recalling as they do the old proverb, which says that forgiveness is divine. Можно предположить, что некоторые из лидеров богатых стран в своих речах самодовольно вспомнят старую мудрость о том, что прощение - это от бога.
"We have a proverb," warns La Strada-Ukraine's Taturevych. Translated from Russian, it states: "Sink or swim; if you are drowning, you are on your own." «У нас есть поговорки, — предупреждает Татуревич из «Ла Страда-Украина», — "плыви или тони" и "спасение утопающих — дело рук самих утопающих"».
As I look back on the various forces that buffeted the securities market over this fifty-year period and at the great waves of public optimism and pessimism that succeeded each other over this time span, the old French proverb, "Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose" (the more things change, the more they remain the same), comes to mind. Когда я, оглядываясь назад, вспоминаю, под натиском каких волн оказывался рынок ценных бумаг в эти пятьдесят лет — волн глубокого оптимизма и пессимизма в общественном настроении, попеременно сменявших друг друга, мне на ум приходит старая французская поговорка: «Plus са change, plus c'est la meme chose» (все новое — это хорошо забытое старое).

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!
