Природа окружает нас везде, где бы мы ни были. Дома мы выращиваем растения, а по выходным иногда выезжаем «на природу». Мы любим бывать на море и слушать шум волн или наслаждаться величественными горными пейзажами. Природа не всегда нас балует и бывает порой сурова. Хоть мы и не можем повлиять на природные явления, но знать, как они будут называться по-английски — должны.
Сегодня поговорим о том, как будет природа на английском языке, как переводятся те или иные погодные явления, а также, как описать пейзаж и другие элементы окружающего нас мира.
Так как же будет «природа»? Перевод на английский этого слова — «nature». Употребляется оно в качестве существительного. Кроме того, «nature» может переводиться как «сущность», «натура», «естество», «характер», «нрав» или «организм», в зависимости от контекста.
Сегодня мы разберем понятие «nature» именно относительно окружающего нас мира, погоды и явлений, и научим вас рассказывать о природе и ее красоте в полной мере. Природа на английском языке с переводом:
Seasons (времена года)
Тут все легко и просто: времен года всего четыре, и мы уже успели выучить их наизусть.
Spring — весна
Summer — лето
Autumn / Fall — осень
Winter — зима
Weather and natural phenomena (погода и явления природы)
Каждый день мы слушаем прогноз погоды, и чтобы знать, брать ли с собой зонтик или лучше вообще не выходить из дома, так как ожидается ураган, нужно знать основные названия природных явлений.
Breeze — легкий ветер, бриз
Climate — климат
Cloud — облако, туча
Dew — роса
Drizzle — мелкий дождь
Fog / Mist — туман
Frost — мороз
Hail — град
Heat — жара

Humidity — влажность
Hurricane — ураган
Icicle — сосулька
Indian summer — бабье лето
Lightning — молния

Есть и такие непредсказуемые явления, которые называют природными катастрофами:
Earthquake — землетрясение

Tornado — торнадо
Tsunami — цунами
Описать погоду в целом, не вдаваясь в детали, можно следующими словами:
Cold — холодная
Freezing — леденящая, очень холодная
Hot — жаркая
Humid — влажная

Windy — ветреная
Если нужно указать именно степень или качество природного явления — вам на помощь придут прилагательные. Например, strong wind (сильный ветер), heavy clouds (тяжелые облака), thick fog (густой туман) и так далее.
Также, в описании погоды часто используются прилагательные и глаголы, произведенные от погодных существительных.
Вспомните ежедневный прогноз погоды, который показывают в утренних новостях. Независимо от страны или языка — визуальные обозначения погоды одинаковы для всех. Это солнце, тучи, дождь и так далее. Совет: чтобы запомнить их быстрее, представляйте картинку и «количество облачков» или капель из туч.
Sunny — солнечно
Partly sunny — местами солнечно
Cloudy — облачно
Partly cloudy — местами облачно (облачно с прояснениями)
Raining — идет дождь
Sun & Rain — дождливо с прояснениями
Thunderstorms — грозы
Snowing — идет снег
Windy — сильный ветер (ветрено)
Clear — чистое небо
«Погодные» прилагательные:
Bright — яркий, светлый
Chilly — холодный, прохладный
Clear — ясный

Глаголы, которые помогут рассказать о погоде: to freeze — замораживать, замерзать; to melt — таять; to pour — лить (о дожде); to hail — идти (о граде); to shine — светить, сиять (о солнце); to snow — идти (о снеге); to rain — идти (о дожде).
Landscape (Пейзаж)
Перейдем к тому, как описать то, что мы видим вокруг себя. Основные элементы природы: вода (water), воздух (air), земля (earth), камень (stone), лед (ice), огонь (fire) и песок (sand).

Рассказывая о пейзаже, не забудьте живописные слова, например, breathtaking (захватывающий дух), boundless (бескрайний), stunning (великолепный), picturesque (живописный) и другие.
Rivers, seas and oceans (реки, моря и океаны)
Наша планета более, чем на 70% покрыта водой (water). Давайте узнаем, какими словами описать разные типы водоемов (water basins) на английском и еще несколько полезных слов о водных явлениях.
Bank — берег (реки)
Brook — ручей
Coast — берег (моря)
Current / Flow — течение, поток
Flood — потоп
High tide — прилив
Iceberg — айсберг

River — река
Riverbed — русло реки
Sea — море
Stream — ручей, поток

Ocean — океан
Wave — волна
Wetlands — болотистая местность
Например, говоря о реке, мы можем сказать, что она течет (flows), по весне выходит из берегов (bursts the banks) или высыхает совсем (dries out) и вообще, впадает в море (flows into the sea). Описать реку мы можем как широкую (wide) или узкую (narrow), глубокую (deep) или мелководную (shallow), быструю (rapid) и бурную (rough), а саму ее поверхность как с рябью (rippling) или спокойную (still).
Wildlife (живая природа)
Говоря о какой-либо местности, мы обязательно затрагиваем и живую природу, которая для нее характерна. Мы говорим о животных (animals), которые там обитают, о растениях (plants), цветах (flowers), деревьях (trees), ягодах (berries) и грибах (mushrooms), которые там произрастают.
Животный и растительный мир — большая и обширная тема в английском языке, также относящаяся к понятию «nature». Она требует подробного разбора, поэтому в этой статье мы приведем только несколько основных понятий.
Animal — животное
Beast — зверь
Bird — птица
Branch — ветвь
Bush — куст
Conifer — хвойное дерево
Evergreen — вечнозеленый
Fish — рыба
Flower — цветок
Foliage — листва
Forest — лес
Jungle — джунгли
Grass — трава
Insect — насекомое
Lair — логово, берлога
Leaf — лист
Log — бревно
Mammal — млекопитающее
Mushroom — гриб
Nest — гнездо
Plant — растение
Predator — хищник
Root — корень
Seed — семя
Tree — дерево
Vine — лоза
Ну и напоследок, несколько устойчивых выражений со словом «природа» в английском языке:
Back to nature — назад к природе
Эта фраза употребляется в отношении людей, которые предпочитают жизнь на природе жизни в развитом городе и отказываются от благ цивилизации.
Second nature — вторая натура
Так говорят, когда хотят подчеркнуть особенность или способность человека в позитивном ключе (to be second nature to someone — быть привычным делом для кого-то)
In the nature of things — в природе вещей
Эта идиома означает естественное и неизбежное течение дел. Ее мы используем, когда говорим, что что-то идет своим чередом без нашего вмешательства.

And if you’re up for a challenge, try practicing all of the nature words together!
The Best Way to Practice Nature Words in English
Long-term memory is where knowledge and vocabulary words stay for long periods.
That means that once a word is in your long-term memory, you should be able to use that word a week from now, a month from now or even a year from now.
To move words from your short-term memory to your long-term memory, you should make words meaningful for you.
- When learning a new word, try using it in a full sentence and write that sentence down in a notebook. In many cases, you can use several words that are related to each other to help you remember their meaning.
- To take your practice a step further, try going for a walk in nature. As you’re walking, create sentences and descriptions of what you’re seeing.
- Better yet, write these sentences down or bring a voice recorder with you! This is a great way to use nature words and record the descriptions you’re creating to review again later.
Your English nature word vocabulary is growing into quite a beautiful garden!
Take care of the seeds you just planted, and watch your nature vocabulary flourish!

Duncan Murdoch2017-05-05 02:31:362020-02-14 21:06:4110 Words From Different Languages that Perfectly Describe Nature
Below is a massive list of nature words — that is, words related to nature. The top 4 are: environment, life, universe and nurture. You can get the definition(s) of a word in the list below by tapping the question-mark icon next to it. The words at the top of the list are the ones most associated with nature, and as you go down the relatedness becomes more slight. By default, the words are sorted by relevance/relatedness, but you can also get the most common nature terms by using the menu below, and there’s also the option to sort the words alphabetically so you can get nature words starting with a particular letter. You can also filter the word list so it only shows words that are also related to another word of your choosing. So for example, you could enter «environment» and click «filter», and it’d give you words that are related to nature and environment.
You can highlight the terms by the frequency with which they occur in the written English language using the menu below. The frequency data is extracted from the English Wikipedia corpus, and updated regularly. If you just care about the words’ direct semantic similarity to nature, then there’s probably no need for this.
There are already a bunch of websites on the net that help you find synonyms for various words, but only a handful that help you find related, or even loosely associated words. So although you might see some synonyms of nature in the list below, many of the words below will have other relationships with nature — you could see a word with the exact opposite meaning in the word list, for example. So it’s the sort of list that would be useful for helping you build a nature vocabulary list, or just a general nature word list for whatever purpose, but it’s not necessarily going to be useful if you’re looking for words that mean the same thing as nature (though it still might be handy for that).
If you’re looking for names related to nature (e.g. business names, or pet names), this page might help you come up with ideas. The results below obviously aren’t all going to be applicable for the actual name of your pet/blog/startup/etc., but hopefully they get your mind working and help you see the links between various concepts. If your pet/blog/etc. has something to do with nature, then it’s obviously a good idea to use concepts or words to do with nature.
If you don’t find what you’re looking for in the list below, or if there’s some sort of bug and it’s not displaying nature related words, please send me feedback using this page. Thanks for using the site — I hope it is useful to you! 🐬
That’s about all the nature related words we’ve got! I hope this list of nature terms was useful to you in some way or another. The words down here at the bottom of the list will be in some way associated with nature, but perhaps tenuously (if you’ve currenly got it sorted by relevance, that is). If you have any feedback for the site, please share it here, but please note this is only a hobby project, so I may not be able to make regular updates to the site. Have a nice day! 🐦

So, in simple, we have a deep connection with nature. So, it is our need to be in the company of nature.
Nature adorned our earth with its remarkable resources and planned a good decoration with full zest, now it is our duty to maintain them all. That was all from my side for the mother nature that a little bird told me. I have made a table containing meaningful words related to nature and its process. It is your turn to use those words and explain the beauty of nature or your exposure to its events. You may use these and come up with a new idea of sketching nature’s beauty.
