thousands of ships will pass through the Arctic passages, emptying their fuel tanks and causing oil slicks and other forms of pollution. тысячи судов будут проходить через арктические пути, опустошая свои топливные баки, проливая нефть и вызывая другие загрязнения.

Given global warming, this may now become a regular occurrence: thousands of ships will pass through the Arctic passages, emptying their fuel tanks and causing oil slicks and other forms of pollution. С учётом глобального потепления это может стать постоянным явлением: тысячи судов будут проходить через арктические пути, опустошая свои топливные баки, проливая нефть и вызывая другие загрязнения.

Many recent environmental accidents and oil slicks had caused far greater damage to the environment than the one in Lebanon in 2006; yet, none of those catastrophes had warranted a United Nations resolution. Большое число произошедших недавно аварий с экологическими последствиями и розливов нефтепродуктов нанесли окружающей среде намного больший ущерб, чем это произошло в 2006 году в Ливане; однако ни одна из такого рода катастроф не послужила основанием для принятия резолюции Организации Объединенных Наций.

And I find that since I've been in the Gulf a couple of times, I really kind of am traumatized because whenever I look at the ocean now, no matter where I am, even where I know none of the oil has gone, I sort of see slicks, and I'm finding that I'm very much haunted by it. И мне кажется, что с тех пор как я несколько раз посетил Мексиканский залив, я получил что-то вроде психологической травмы, поскольку теперь, когда бы я ни смотрел на океан, где бы я ни был, даже там, где я точно знаю, нет разлитой нефти, мне все равно мерещатся нефтяные пятна. И я заметил, что меня это очень пугает.

Examples of word usage in different contexts are provided solely for linguistic purposes, i.e. to study word usage in a sentence in one language and how they can be translated into another. All samples are automatically collected from a variety of publicly available open sources using bilingual search technologies.

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!
