Читаем Английский язык с А. А. Милном. Винни-Пух. Часть 2 полностью

"What I think," said Piglet (/а/ что я думаю, — сказал Пятачок), "is I think (что думаю) we'll go and see Christopher Robin (что мы пойдем проведаем Кристофера Робина), only he won't be there (только его не будет там = дома), so we can't (поэтому не получится: «поэтому мы не можем»)."

autumn ['Ltqm], night [naIt], branch [brRnC]

Now one autumn morning when the wind had blown all the leaves off the trees in the night, and was trying to blow the branches off, Pooh and Piglet were sitting in the Thoughtful Spot and wondering.

"What I think," said Pooh, "is I think we'll go to Pooh Corner and see Eeyore, because perhaps his house has been blown down, and perhaps he'd like us to build it again."

"What I think," said Piglet, "is I think we'll go and see Christopher Robin, only he won't be there, so we can't."

"Let's go and see everybody," said Pooh (давай пойдем и проведаем всех, — сказал Пух). "Because when you've been walking in the wind for miles (потому что когда ты идешь на ветру /уже/ многие мили), and you suddenly go into somebody's house (и /ты/ неожиданно заходишь в дом к кому-то: «в чей-то дом»), and he says (и он говорит), 'Hallo, Pooh, you're just in time for a little smackerel of something (привет, Пух, ты как раз вовремя, чтобы немного перекусить чем-нибудь),' and you are, then it's what I call a Friendly Day (и ты действительно вовремя, тогда это то, что я называю Дружелюбным Днем)."

Piglet thought (Пятачок думал) that they ought to have a Reason for going to see everybody (что им нужна Причина, чтобы пойти проведать всех), like Looking for Small or Organizing an Expotition (такая как Поиски Малявки или Организация Искпедиции), if Pooh could think of something (если Пух может придумать что-нибудь).

Pooh could (Пух смог).

wind [wInd], says [sez], friendly ['frendlI]

"Let's go and see everybody," said Pooh. "Because when you've been walking in the wind for miles, and you suddenly go into somebody's house, and he says, 'Hallo, Pooh, you're just in time for a little smackerel of something,' and you are, then it's what I call a Friendly Day."

Piglet thought that they ought to have a Reason for going to see everybody, like Looking for Small or Organizing an Expotition, if Pooh could think of something.

Pooh could.

"We'll go because it's Thursday (мы пойдем, потому что /сегодня/ Четверг)," he said (сказал он), "and we'll go to wish everybody a Very Happy Thursday (и мы пойдем, чтобы пожелать всем Очень Счастливого Четверга). Come on, Piglet (идем, Пятачок)."

They got up (они встали); and when Piglet had sat down again (и когда Пятачок снова сел), because he didn't know the wind was so strong (потому что он не знал, что ветер такой сильный), and had been helped up by Pooh (а Пух помог ему встать), they started off (они отправились в путь). They went to Pooh's house first (сначала они пошли в дом Пуха), and luckily Pooh was at home (и, к счастью, Пух оказался дома) just as they got there (как раз когда они добрались туда), so he asked them in (поэтому он пригласил их вовнутрь), and they had some (и они немного перекусили), and then they went on to Kanga's house (а потом они пошли дальше в дом Кенги), holding on to each other (держась друг за друга), and shouting (и крича), "Isn't it?" and "What?" and "I can't hear (не так ли? и что? и я не слышу)." By the time they got to Kanga's house (к тому времени, как они добрались до дома Кенги) they were so buffeted (их так потрепало) that they stayed to lunch (что они остались на обед). Just at first it seemed rather cold outside afterwards (как раз сперва потом /им/ показалось довольно холодно снаружи), so they pushed on to Rabbit's as quickly as they could (и они поспешили к Кролику /так/ быстро, как они могли = со всех ног; to push onспешить).

Thursday ['TWzdI], luckily ['lAkIlI], buffet ['bAfIt]

"We'll go because it's Thursday," he said, "and we'll go to wish everybody a Very Happy Thursday. Come on, Piglet."

They got up; and when Piglet had sat down again, because he didn't know the wind was so strong, and had been helped up by Pooh, they started off. They went to Pooh's house first, and luckily Pooh was at home just as they got there, so he asked them in, and they had some, and then they went on to Kanga's house, holding on to each other, and shouting, "Isn't it?" and "What?" and "I can't hear." By the time they got to Kanga's house they were so buffeted that they stayed to lunch. Just at first it seemed rather cold outside afterwards, so they pushed on to Rabbit's as quickly as they could.

"We've come to wish you a Very Happy Thursday (мы пришли пожелать тебе Очень Счастливого Четверга)," said Pooh, when he had gone in and out once or twice (сказал Пух, когда он вошел и вышел раз или два) just to make sure that he could get out again (просто чтобы убедиться, что он может выйти снова[61]).
