И к сожалению, пресса, зачастую, усиливает эту норму, когда ведется репортаж с места проишествия про важного человка, которого поймали за рисованием каракулей на слушании о подтверждении в должности или тому подобное- то обычно используются такие слова как: "обнаружен", "пойман" или "выявлен", как будто совершается какое-то преступление. And unfortunately, the press tends to reinforce this norm when they're reporting on a doodling scene - of an important person at a confirmation hearing and the like - they typically use words like "discovered" or "caught" or "found out," as if there's some sort of criminal act being committed.

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.
