“I assure you …”
”I bring good news that …”
”I know from experience that …”
“Eureka! …”
“Praise (God, Athena, be), that …”
”You’re going to enjoy the fact that …”
I think that a warning is by its nature more succinct, and more universally and quickly understood. A warning is like the verbal equivalent of a spatter of blood, or a bit of flesh or scalp left on barbed wire. Neither the originator nor the perceiver needs to go very deeply into why it’s bad.
A portent of good needs to be a bit more wordy, to let the reader or listener know first that although it occupies the place where a warning would go, it isn’t a warning. It may tie into a thing percieved positively, like praising god that the fact being advised about is true. Or, asserting that the reader or listener will derive enjoyment or satisfaction from the thing being described.

«Осторожно!», «Берегись!», «Будь осторожен!» и многие другие фразы мы используем, чтобы проинформировать кого-либо о возможной опасности. Конечно же, в английском языке существуют аналогичные фразы плюс еще несколько способов предупредить о потенциально опасной ситуации. В этой статье мы подробно рассмотрим все способы выражения предостережений на английском языке, чтобы вы были свободны в выборе языковых средств, если вдруг этого потребует ситуация.
Мы можем условно разделить все предостережения на три категории:
- «Слабые» и вежливые разговорные предостережения.
- «Сильные» разговорные предостережения.
- Предостережения о мгновенной опасности.
- Знаки-предостережения.
К категории «слабых» предостережений отнесем те фразы, которые очень походят на советы и используют те же языковые средства. Слабые предостережения содержат много слов и звучат вежливо. Вы можете использовать их, если ситуация не критичная, вы предупреждаете заранее и не требуется мгновенная реакция на опасность.
Вы можете использовать глаголы should, ought to, а также Conditional 2:
I think you should drive slower. The road is icy. – Я думаю, тебе следует ехать медленнее. Дорога скользкая.
In my opinion, you ought not to eat these berries. – Мне кажется, тебе не следует есть эти ягоды.
If I were you, I would not come close to the lion’s cage. – На твоем месте, я бы не подходил близко к клетке льва.
Помимо модальных глаголов, в вашем распоряжении несколько функциональных фраз:
I must warn you that these spiders are poisonous. – Я должен предупредить вас, что эти пауки ядовитые.
A word of warning, this river is very deep, so you should wear lifejackets. – Хочу предупредить, что эта река очень глубокая, поэтому вы должны надеть спасательные жилеты.
«Сильные» разговорные предостережения отличаются тем, что они используются в повелительном наклонении, произносятся с восклицательной интонацией и на письме почти всегда сопровождаются восклицательным знаком.
Вы можете использовать «сильный» модальный глагол mustn’t, чтобы запретить человеку делать что-либо потенциально опасное:
You mustn’t stand under a tree in a storm. It is not safe! – Не нужно стоять под деревом в грозу. Это небезопасно.
You mustn’t come closer to the edge of the platform. The train is coming. – Не нужно подходить ближе к краю платформы. Приближается поезд.
Отрицание don’t – тоже очень распространенный способ указать человеку, чего он не должен делать, чтобы не подвергаться опасности:
Do not touch the oven! You might burn yourself! – Не прикасайся к духовке! Ты можешь обжечься!
Don’t feed the monkeys, they might bite you! — Не корми обезъян, они могут укусить тебя!
Помните, что mustn’t и don’t в некоторых ситуациях могут звучать грубо и невежливо.
К третьей категории отнесем ряд восклицательных выражений, которые призывают человека моментально отреагировать на ситуацию.
Be careful! – Осторожно!
Это выражение используется, когда существует некий риск и человеку необходимо обратить внимание на что-либо, чтобы избежать опасной ситуации:
Be careful! The floor is wet! – Осторожно! Пол мокрый!
Be careful! You might hit your head! – Осторожно! Ты можешь удариться головой!
Look out! – Осторожнее! Поберегись!
Эту фразу произносят, когда человеку нужно вести себя осторожнее, например, внимательно смотреть под ноги, чтобы не упасть, или уйти с дороги, чтобы не попасть под колеса транспорта:
Look out! This doorway is very low. – Осторожно! Дверной проём очень низкий.
Look out! That car is driving too fast! – Поберегись! Эта машина слишком быстро едет!
Watch out! – Осторожнее! Поберегись!
Это выражение аналогично look out и используется в тех же самых ситуациях, когда необходимо обратить чье-то внимание на возможную опасность:
Watch out! It is dark in the room. – Осторожно! В комнате темно.
Watch out! Here comes a bike. – Поберегись! Там едет велосипед.
Heads up! – Осторожнее! Поберегись!
Это выражение носит неформальный оттенок, хотя по значению совпадает с вышеупомянутыми:
Heads up! There is a car! – Поберегись! Едет машина!
Heads up! Don’t step on the glass. – Осторожно! Не наступай на стекло.
Keep away from…! – Держись подальше от! Не подходи к…!
Эта фраза информирует о том, что не стоит приближаться к определённому опасному месту или предмету, так как человек может пораниться или пострадать:
Keep away from the fire! A spark might fire your clothes. – Держись подальше от костра. Искра может поджечь твою одежду.
Keep away from the edge of the rock. It is dangerous to stand there! – Не подходи к краю скалы. Там опасно стоять.
Take care! – Будь осторожен! Береги себя!
Take care обычно говорят в качестве напутствия, это просьба вести себя осторожно и не делать ничего рискованного и опасного. Часто эту фразу используют при прощании:
Take care! Do not go out without a hat! – Береги себя! Не ходи на улицу без шапки!
Take care! It is not safe to go alone in this part of the city. – Будь осторожен! Небезопасно ходить в одиночку в этой части города.
В британском варианте английского глагол mind часто употребляется в выражениях типа:
Mind your step! – Смотрите под ноги!
Mind that car! – Смотри, там машина!
В американском же варианте предпочитают использовать watch в этом значении:
Watch your step!
Watch that car!
И наконец, рассмотрим предостерегающие знаки. Их легко отличить от других информирующих знаков по яркой окраске, восклицательному знаку и часто характерному изображению. Что же пишут на предостерегающих знаках?
Danger! – Опасность!
You shouldn’t open this door. There is a sign saying ‘Danger! High voltage!’ – Тебе не стоит открывать эту дверь. На двери знак ‘Опасность! Высокое напряжение!’
It is not safe to be here. The sign on the fence says ‘Danger! Construction site!’ – Здесь небезопасно находиться. Знак на заборе указывает ‘Опасность! Ведется строительство.’
Beware of …! – Остерегайтесь …! Осторожно, …!
Сам по себе глагол beware переводится как ‘беречься, остерегаться, опасаться’ и он всегда используется с предлогом of, за которым должно следовать существительное:
Beware of the dog! – Осторожно, собака!
Beware of falling stones! – Остерегайтесь падающих камней!
Warning! – Внимание!
Глагол warn – ‘предупреждать, предостерегать’, соответственно на знаках часто можно его увидеть:
The sign on the tank says ‘Warning! Explosive gas!’ – Знак на цистерне гласит ‘Внимание! Взрывоопасный газ!’
I saw the sign ‘Warning! Road works ahead!’ and slowed down. – Я увидел знак ‘Внимание! Впереди ведутся дорожные работы!’ и притормозил.
Caution! – Внимание!
Чтобы привлечь внимание людей, используют также слово caution[‘kɔːʃ(ə)n]:
I did not see the sign ‘Caution! Wet paint!’ and sat on the bench. – Я не заметил знака ‘Внимание! Окрашено!’ и сел на скамейку.
There is a sign ‘Caution! Moving vehicles!’, so we must look both sides before crossing the road. – Там знак ‘Внимание! Движение транспорта!’, поэтому мы должны смотреть по сторонам, перед тем, как перейти дорогу.
Теперь вы знаете, как предупреждать об опасности и давать предостережения на английском языке. Будьте внимательны, избегайте опасных ситуаций и продолжайте изучать английский вместе с Enginform! Успехов вам!

warning
From its original sense of sample or specimen (Latin exemplum) example derives the seemingly contradictory meanings, on the one hand of a pattern or model, and on the other hand of a warning — a sample or specimen of what is to be followed, or of what is to be shunned. An example, however, may be more than a sample or specimen of any class; it may be the very archetype or prototype to which the whole class must conform, as when Christ is spoken of as being an example or leaving an example for his disciples. Example comes nearer to the possible freedom of the model than to the necessary exactness of the pattern; often we can not, in a given case, exactly imitate the best example, but only adapt its teachings to altered circumstances. In its application to a person or thing, exemplar can scarcely be distinguished from example; but example is most frequently used for an act, or course of action, for which exemplar is not used; as, one sets a good (or a bad) example. An exemplification is an illustrative working out in action of a principle or law, without any reference to its being copied or repeated; an example guides, an exemplification illustrates or explains. Ensample is the same as example, but is practically obsolete outside of Scriptural or theological language. Compare MODEL; SAMPLE.
Synonyms:
archetype, ensample, example, exemplar, exemplification, ideal, model, pattern, precedent, prototype, sample, specimen, standard, type

Scott Morrison:
( Kiyoshi Ota/Pool Photo via AP, File) Prime Minister Scott Morrison said Zhaos tweet was utterly outrageous and a terrible slur against Australias military. It is truly repugnant. It is deeply offensive to every Australian, every Australian who has served in that uniform, he told reporters in Canberra. The Chinese government should be totally ashamed of this post. The Chinese government diminishes them in the worlds eyes. CHINESE STUDENTS IN AUSTRALIA FALL VICTIM TO VIRTUAL KIDNAPPING SCAMS : Prime Minister Scott Morrison said The Chinese government had contacted Twitter asking it to take the post down. The post had a warning tag on it by Monday afternoon but could still be viewed. Zhaos account comes with a Twitter label stating that its a Chinese government account. Despite China blocking Twitter and other U.S. social media platforms within the county, Chinese diplomats and state media have established a strong presence on them. Zhao Lijian was criticized by the U.S. in March after tweeting a conspiracy theory that U.S. soldiers may have brought the coronavirus to China. Zhao Lijian is considered a leading representative of Chinas high-pitched new strain of assertive foreign relations. Prime Minister Scott Morrison acknowledged there were tensions between China and Australia. But this is not how you deal with them.

Andrew Herdman:
Now capacity is growing at about the same or even edging slightly ahead, so load factors have stabilized. That is a warning sign to keep an eye on capacity.

Are we missing a good synonym for warning?
This page contains my ever-growing list of Warning Words. Warning words are words and sometimes short phrases and expressions which, when an author uses them, are a good indication that something is amiss with either a phrase, sentence, paragraph or even the entire manuscript.
Whereas these words should be used with care, or generally avoided, there is a special group of words that should never be used. Find out more here: The Special Group
The list below will grow steadily, and I’ll add links to more detailed explanations on the words that warrant it.
- offered — when used as a speech tag or for a facial expression
- both — with we, they
- eyes — especially attempts at describing «looking» by saying what eyes are doing — also any «alternative» words for eyes start to sound like The Eye of Argon. The verb «to eye» is especially egregious.
- all — with we, they
- something — sometimes this word is just redundant. Sometimes it’s an indication of laziness. Usually it means something could have been better expressed.
- breath, breathing and especially breaths
- seemingly — is this the new hopefully?
- brain — in particular referring to a person’s brain instead of the person («my brain couldn’t understand it»)
- before — can cause ambiguities and syntactic problems when used to mean «in front of» and is sometimes used to force a conjunction where none should be, giving the reader the impression of a non-sequitur.
- make, of a noise — generally sounds awkward. Better for something to happen, with a particular noise.
- make + verb or verbable — e.g. «made a look of disgust» rather than «looked disgusted.» A form of auxiliary abuse.
- purposely — not yet in current formal use outside the USA and even there often frowned on as dialect or even error. Often confused with «purposefully» but actually means «on purpose». Often an indicator that there is a better or clearer way to say what you want to say.
- seem — often covers for POV confusion; the author knows it for a fact but the narrator isn’t sure. The best solution is often to use «looked like» because this directly implies «seemed from the narrator’s point of view»
- mind — I know I complained about «brain» already, and «mind» is surely more abstract, right? All too often writers talk about things happening to people’s minds rather than directly to them, which is an unnecessary, distracting and immersion-breaking abstraction.
- clearly — all to often this reveals that something isn’t clear to the author, though usually this word is just redundant.
- thing — there are a few phrases where it is allowed («I thought I must be seeing things» is one). At all other times this is a good indicator of laziness.
- kind of — usually redundant. often an indicator of refined clunk
- way — when found in phrases like «in some ways» «in that way» is usually a sign of laziness or weak style.
- one — in expressions like «one of those people who…», «one of those things»
- moment — especially in the plural, or a moment that is anything other than short (he stopped for a few moments)
- then — frequently indicates that a new sentence would be better, often unnecessary, sometimes an indicator that bland logistics is being described, that the reader probably doesn’t need to know. And then there is the even worse crime of and then.
- find — ‘she found that annoying’ often a mask for a passive voice; avoiding it usually makes a better sentence. Also «she found she could fly» – can work well when used at the very moment of discovery, but can become an auxiliary abuse, where «she could fly» is a lot stronger.
- lest — when used properly, as «in case» is often an indication of pomposity or otherwise inappropriate or incongruent register
- afford — this is fine when used to mean «have enough money for» but often gets used pompously to mean «provide» or «furnish» and even worse when used «metaphorically». This pompous usage can cause ambiguity when trying to use it correctly.
- never — 1) don’t say it unless you mean it. Too often used for emphasis but it is meaningless if the reality is «hardly ever» 2) don’t use it as a fancy way to say «didn’t»: she never blink’d. (Note: this usage is common in North American dialects, so it can be okay in direct speech but be aware that like all dialect, it doesn’t travel well, so should be kept out of narration.)
- dramatic, ~ally — special category, along with words like «ominous» where it behoves the author to convince the reader, not merely tell him.
- swivel (v.) —
with
relation to eyes and heads. Tends to be immersion breaking when it isn’t unintentionally
funny. - while — very often this is used as a conjunction for unrelated features. In the minds of some authors, two things that happen at the same time MUST be expressed in this way, but it is WRONG to use it when narrating perfect actions. Correct usage would be for two imperfect actions whose comparison or association is revealing: «Nero fiddled while Rome burned» — «Adam delved while Eve span*». Compare with «Jim opened the front door while John came in through the back door.»
- in the form of, in the shape of — often can be replaced with «as» but generally indicates that a sentence needs reworking.
- atop — means «on the topmost point or summit of», with a special usage when on something intended to have something on it, like a dais, or platform (‘ … which had been erected by Sisygambis atop a temple tall’). If you use it as an alternative to «on top of» or (worse still) «on», you are either being pretentious or just plain wrong. Combined with certain other words (like «lest») it gives the impression of pretension or pomposity.
- effect (in the sense «something that has an effect») — usually redundant. «it gave a lurch with a dizzying effect» can be said much better: ‘it lurched dizzyingly’
- actually — almost always redundant. Can be used to good effect in dialog where words are added for effect: «Do you actually mean to tell me you are a circus clown?» carries all the incredulity you need, where «Do you mean you are a circus clown?» he asked incredulously feels forced.
- unceremoniously — originally used archly as a means to inject slapstick humour, it has become so over-used that it has become a distracting eyesore.
- apparently — draws attention to the whole process of writing which is about evoking an appearance. Anything that could correctly be described as ‘apparent’ ought already be obvious to the reader, so saying it is repetitious.
- emanate — this is a horrible word in any case, but loads of writers use it to try to avoid clunky phrasing, which either results in forced or borderline misuse, or something almost meaningless. If you must use it, use it with precision. It is not a synonym for «to come from»; it literally means «to seep out».
- elicit — either a sign of laziness: the author is trying to force as much as possible into one sentence; or the author is hung up on telegraphing cause and effect. ‘Rinn fired another blast of frost, eliciting another
roar.’ >> prefer >>
‘Rinn fired another blast of frost. The dragon roared [again].‘ - Voiced — when used in place of «said». There is a verb «to voice» which is most often used idiomatically in the expression «to voice an opinion». It is a contraction of the expression «to give voice to» meaning to express a shared but unspoken idea or sentiment.
- A lot — there are a few cases where this is okay, especially if used sparingly. One place where it is almost always an indication that a better sentence is possible is if the current sentence ends with «a lot». Always wrong when used with an action, e.g. «He chopped wood for the fire a lot.» Remember, ‘alot’ isn’t a word, whereas ‘alright’ is all right (or at least, mostly right).
- Part of [someone] — with thoughts, feeling: «part of her wanted to escape, but part of her wanted to stay.» There are all sorts of things wrong with this, but the biggest is that if you abandon this lazy shorthand for ambivalence, you soon discover more subtle, more absorbing ways of conveying it.
- in terms of — In description, always redundant. ‘The richest, in terms of natural resources, of the whole continent‘ is identical to ‘The richest, in natural resources, of the whole continent’. A fill in phrase that fills in only space, with one exception — in a question: ‘what, in terms of grammar, is wrong with this sentence, if anything?’
- Eventually — pretty good in dialog as a way of making the reader impatient, but at all other times definitively banned. I have yet to see a good use for this word in narration. It is so vague that it always begs an undesired question, which means it’s probably an example of author laziness.
- Capable of — when used immediately before the thing that something is used for: ‘[those aircraft were] capable of scouting far into enemy territory’ — you should never need to tell the reader that something is capable of doing the thing that you have told the reader it is doing.
- with a + [noise noun] — not always bad — can be good for drawing attention to a particular noise among others — but in general better to use the related verb: the barrel banged into the wall rather than the barrel hit the wall with a bang. Using the verb is also a good way to disguise onomatopoeia.
- allow/enable — this is an old rule from writing user guides that applies just as well, if not even better, in fiction. It comes in two parts:
- never use allow when you mean enable. Allow means ‘permit’ in the sense of letting you do something that is normally restricted or forbidden. Enable means ‘make able’ in the sense of making it possible to do something that would otherwise be physically or logically impossible, e.g. better access ramps and wider doorways enable everyone to enter and leave the building.
- never use enable as the first conjugated verb** in an explanation. This is all about how most people relate to explanations of usage, but applies equally elsewhere. Using «enable» puts the means before the motivation, which often creates a problem of comprehension:
‘Pressing the power switch enables you to turn on the device.’
— this is painfully common in user guides, and it arises because the writer has a list of «features» to describe, so he has the names of the features first, and what they do second, in his thoughts (and often in his notes, too). It should be written:
‘To turn on the device, press the power switch.’
— this is the order of the thoughts in the mind of the reader of the user guide, and is the only effective way of explaining things, and the only way to have any possibility that the reader will remember the instruction.
- fact — in general this is probably a sign that you’re trying to dump info. In particular, if you used the phrase ‘the fact that’ then you’re definitely overexplaining something. And if you aren’t, there’s a simpler, plainer and clearer way to say it.
- bodies — don’t use it in the plural unless you mean corpses.
- case — in the phrase ‘this was/wasn’t the case.‘ Strong indication that a complete rewrite of the sentence will lead to lots of improvement. Or replace it with «so.»
- feel — when used as an auxiliary for an adjective, especially when there’s already a verb in the sentence: ‘he awoke feeling cold and sore’ >> much better: ‘he awoke cold and sore.’ Often it’s better to replace feel with be: ‘he felt happy’ >> ‘he was happy’ — unless you intend to sow doubt.
- bleak — is fine for a landscape. Avoid it for anything else. But by all means make the reader think it.

* there was a girl in my class at primary school called Eve Spang. If only there had been an Adam David!
** if any kind of technical or commercial writing is part of your day job, you know what this means. If you don’t know what this means, find out before anyone else finds out that you don’t know!
The idea for the Describing Words engine came when I was building the engine for Related Words (it’s like a thesaurus, but gives you a much broader set of related words, rather than just synonyms). While playing around with word vectors and the «HasProperty» API of conceptnet, I had a bit of fun trying to get the adjectives which commonly describe a word. Eventually I realised that there’s a much better way of doing this: parse books!
Project Gutenberg was the initial corpus, but the parser got greedier and greedier and I ended up feeding it somewhere around 100 gigabytes of text files — mostly fiction, including many contemporary works. The parser simply looks through each book and pulls out the various descriptions of nouns.
Hopefully it’s more than just a novelty and some people will actually find it useful for their writing and brainstorming, but one neat little thing to try is to compare two nouns which are similar, but different in some significant way — for example, gender is interesting: «woman» versus «man» and «boy» versus «girl». On an inital quick analysis it seems that authors of fiction are at least 4x more likely to describe women (as opposed to men) with beauty-related terms (regarding their weight, features and general attractiveness). In fact, «beautiful» is possibly the most widely used adjective for women in all of the world’s literature, which is quite in line with the general unidimensional representation of women in many other media forms. If anyone wants to do further research into this, let me know and I can give you a lot more data (for example, there are about 25000 different entries for «woman» — too many to show here).
The blueness of the results represents their relative frequency. You can hover over an item for a second and the frequency score should pop up. The «uniqueness» sorting is default, and thanks to my Complicated Algorithm™, it orders them by the adjectives’ uniqueness to that particular noun relative to other nouns (it’s actually pretty simple). As you’d expect, you can click the «Sort By Usage Frequency» button to adjectives by their usage frequency for that noun.
Special thanks to the contributors of the open-source mongodb which was used in this project.

The way Reverse Dictionary works is pretty simple. It simply looks through tonnes of dictionary definitions and grabs the ones that most closely match your search query. For example, if you type something like «longing for a time in the past», then the engine will return «nostalgia». The engine has indexed several million definitions so far, and at this stage it’s starting to give consistently good results (though it may return weird results sometimes). It acts a lot like a thesaurus except that it allows you to search with a definition, rather than a single word. So in a sense, this tool is a «search engine for words», or a sentence to word converter.
I made this tool after working on Related Words which is a very similar tool, except it uses a bunch of algorithms and multiple databases to find similar words to a search query. That project is closer to a thesaurus in the sense that it returns synonyms for a word (or short phrase) query, but it also returns many broadly related words that aren’t included in thesauri. So this project, Reverse Dictionary, is meant to go hand-in-hand with Related Words to act as a word-finding and brainstorming toolset. For those interested, I also developed Describing Words which helps you find adjectives and interesting descriptors for things (e.g. waves, sunsets, trees, etc.).
In case you didn’t notice, you can click on words in the search results and you’ll be presented with the definition of that word (if available). The definitions are sourced from the famous and open-source WordNet database, so a huge thanks to the many contributors for creating such an awesome free resource.
Special thanks to the contributors of the open-source code that was used in this project: Elastic Search, @HubSpot, WordNet, and @mongodb.

Английский является языком международным. Именно поэтому во многих странах информация для тех, кто посещает государство с любой целью, дублируется на английском языке. Считается, что так любой приезжий может самостоятельно сориентироваться на местности, понять, что позволено делать, а что нет, и в чем его предостерегают. Но на практике получается, что, даже изучая английский язык, мы редко когда обращаем внимание на всевозможные надписи, объявления, уведомления (notices), указатели, таблички (signs), предостережения (warnings), информация в которых выражена английским языком.
Конечно, определенные знания языка помогут вам не растеряться и по смыслу использованных слов в надписях и предостережениях на английском языке уловить тот необходимый вам смысл. Это очень важно, ведь вы можете попасть в неприятную ситуацию, не приняв к сведению то, о чем вас просят или предупреждают. Но порой даже этих знаний недостаточно для того, чтобы правильно понять, что написано на каком-то указателе, в объявлении или предостережении. Я считаю, что такие вот лаконичные предложения и словосочетания необходимо просто заучивать наизусть. Ведь на самом деле их не так уж и много. А со временем, если вы часто бываете заграницей, они настолько врежутся вам в память, что вы будете воспринимать автоматически, не задумываясь, то, что в них написано.
Какими бывают надписи и предостережения на английском языке?
Условно надписи и предостережения на английском языке можно разделить на четыре группы: информативные надписи, надписи «Сделайте это!», надписи «Не делайте это!» и непосредственно предостережения (предупреждения). Таблички, вывески и указатели можно вынести в отдельный раздел, так как они лишь обозначают объекты местности.
- Информативные надписи (informative notices) – конечно, дают определенную информацию.
- OUT OF ORDER – Неисправно (например, о каком-нибудь устройстве, машине)
- NO VACANCIES – Мест нет (объявление в гостинице и т.д.)
- SOLD OUT — Все билеты проданы (в кинотеатре, театре, на концерте)
- ADMISSION BY TICKET ONLY – Вход платный
- ADMISSION FREE – Вход бесплатный
- ON SALE – Имеется в продаже
- DRIVERS NEEDED! – Нужны водители!
- PROGRAMMERS REQUIRED – Требуются программисты
- HELP REQUIRED – Нужна помощь
- Надписи Do this! — «Сделайте это!» указывают на то, какие действия в определенной обстановке должен сделать человек.
- FASTEN SAFETY BELTS! – Пристегните ремни!
- WALK! – Идите!
- KEEP RIGHT / LEFT – Держитесь правой/левой стороны
- Надписи Don’t do this! — «Не делайте это!» указывают на то, что человеку запрещено выполнять какие-то действия в определенном месте.
- NO TRESPASSING – Проход запрещен
- KEEP OFF THE GRASS! – По газону не ходить!
- DO NOT DISTURB! – Не беспокоить!
- NO ADMISSION – Вход запрещен
- NO PARKING (STOPPING) – Стоянка запрещена
- NO PHOTOGRAPHING – Фотографировать запрещено
- STOP! DON’T WALK! – Стойте!
- LEAVE NO LITTER – Не сорить
- NO ENTRY FOR GENERAL PUBLIC – Посторонним вход запрещен
- SORRY NO DOGS – С собаками не входить
- DO NOT LEAN OUT OF THE WINDOW – Не высовываться из окна
- PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS – Животных кормить запрещено
- Предостережения – Warnings, которые можно охарактеризовать одним словом — Watch out! – Осторожно! Эти надписи советуют нам быть внимательными и осторожными в определенных местах (ситуациях), чтобы избежать нехороших последствий.
- MIND YOUR HEAD! – Осторожнее, не ушибите голову!
- MIND THE STEP! – Осторожно, ступенька!
- FRAGILE! – Ломкое! Хрупкое!
- BEWARE OF THE DOG – Осторожно, злая собака!
- BEWARE OF CARS (CAUTION: AUTOMOBILE TRAFFIC) – Берегись автомобиля!
- DANGER! – Опасность!
- WET PAINT! – Осторожно, окрашено!
- BIOHAZARD – Биологическая опасность
- В пятую группу мы определим различные таблички, указатели и вывески, которые можно встретить во многих странах:
- ARRIVAL – Прибытие
- BOARDING – Посадка
- CHECK-IN – Регистрация
- DETOUR – Объезд
- EMERGENCY EXIT – Запасной выход
- FIRST AID – Скорая помощь
- LOST AND FOUND – Бюро находок
- PRIVATE PROPERTY – Частная собственность
Разумеется, это лишь часть надписей и предостережений на английском языке, которые вам пригодятся. Если вам интересные другие выражения, посмотрите список, размещенный на сайте kupislovar.ru. А, может, кому интересно увидеть иллюстрации надписей и предостережений на английском языке? Тогда смело вводите в поисковую систему Google ваш запрос и изучайте эти лаконичные фразы наглядно.
