Чекни, идет ли дождь, или чудеса английских идиом

Встречайте еще одну интригующую идиому, которая используется в повседневной речи нейтивов – «to take a rain check» . Как и принято в мире идиом английского языка, в современном значении это выражение не имеет ничего общего с дождем. И уж точно никто не собирается проверять, идет ли он за окном.

Как же мы его переведем?

Выражение «to take a rain check» переводится как «сделать что-то в другой раз», «отложить на потом». Можете использовать его, если у вас нет возможности принять предложение сейчас, но вы с удовольствием сделаете это позже. Или, если вы хотите дать понять, что сейчас не самое подходящее время, оно поможет вам вежливо отказаться.

Представьте: друзья пригласили посидеть в баре, но у вас завал на работе. Вы себя не очень хорошо чувствуете, а кто-то зовет в гости. Вы уже запланировали поездку за город, и тут прилетает приглашение на концерт. В таких случаях вы всегда можете взять «a rain check». Не бойтесь никого обидеть, используя эту фразу, вы будете звучать очень естественно и непринужденно.

Даже Imagine Dragons в песне «It’s time » использовали это выражение: «Packing my bags and giving the academy a rain-check». – Пакую чемоданы и обещаю академии явиться в другой раз.

Конечно, какая академия, когда есть дела поважнее? Любовь, например.

Любопытно узнать происхождение?

Эта фраза возникла в 1880-х годах в США, и связана она была с бейсболом. Если в день матча шел очень сильный дождь, то матч приходилось переносить на другой день. Всем, у кого были билеты на матч давали «a rain check» (ваучер) на посещение другого матча.

Давайте посмотрим, как идиому используют в реальной речи:

Since you can’t join us for dinner, we’ll give you a rain check. – Раз у вас не получается поужинать с нами сегодня, давайте перенесем.

My mother’s not feeling very well. Could we take a rain check? – Моя мама немного приболела. Давай в другой раз?

I would have loved to come to your place, but I’ll take a rain check on that. I will be out of town during the weekend . – Я бы с удовольствием заглянул к тебе, но не в этот раз. Меня не будет в городе на выходных.

I’ll have to take a rain check on going to the movies this evening, I already have other plans. – Придется отложить поход в кино, у меня уже есть планы на сегодня.

Mind if take a rain check on the team outing? I have to finish this project by tomorrow. – Не против, если я пропущу наш корпоратив? Мне нужно закончить проект к завтрашнему дню.

He said he would take a rain check on visiting us today, maybe next week. – Он сказал, что не сможет к нам прийти сегодня, может, на следующей неделе.

Теперь делитесь в комментариях, when was the last time you took a rain check?
