Английский язык с Агатой Кристи. Убийства по алфавиту (ASCII-IPA)

"Eh bien (ну, так), I admit (я признаю) that I did not regard that first letter (что не рассматривал то первое письмо) in the way I should (тем образом, которым мне следовало). It just made me extremely uneasy (это просто меня крайне обеспокоило: «это просто сделало меня крайне неспокойным»). The police regarded it as a hoax (полиция рассматривала это как розыгрыш). I myself took it seriously (я сам принимал это серьезно). I was convinced (я был убежден) that a murder would take place in Andover (что убийство произойдет в Эндовере) as stated (как утверждалось). As you know (как вы знаете), a murder did take place (убийство действительно произошло)."

"There was no means at that point (не было ни единой возможности на том этапе), as I well realized (как я хорошо осознавал), of knowing who the person was (узнать, кто был этот человек) who had done the deed (который совершил этот поступок). The only course open to me was to try and understand (единственный открытый для меня путь был попытаться понять) just what kind of a person had done it (просто какого типа человек = что за человек сделал это)."

"I had certain indications (у меня были некоторые указания/знаки). The letter (письмо) — the manner of the crime (способ убийства) — the person murdered (/сам/ убитый человек). What I had to discover was (что мне нужно было выяснить, было): the motive of the crime (мотив преступления), the motive of the letter (мотив письма)."

"Publicity," suggested Clarke (известность, — предложил Кларк).

"Surely an inferiority complex covers that," added Thora Gray (несомненно, комплекс неполноценности покрывает = объясняет это, — добавила Тора Грей).
