Английский язык с тремя гоблинами

“Wife,” said he (жена, — сказал он), “Put these goblins in the pantry (сунь этих гоблинов в кладовку; to put— поместить, поставить, положить; pantry— кладовая для продуктов), and we will have them fried on toast for breakfast (и мы их пожарим на гренках для завтрака: «будем иметь их поджаренными на гренке для завтрака»; to fry— жарить; toast— ломтик хлеба, подрумяненный на огне, гренок, тост).”

The goblins dropped their handfuls of gold and silver, and found themselves caught up by a great big giant who carried them off, with great long strides, to his house.

Tom Tiddler took them into a large kitchen where Mrs. Tiddler was busy making the tea.

The poor little brothers were locked up in the pantry (бедные маленькие братья были заперты в кладовой), and they sat down on the floor (и они сели на пол) holding each others hands (держа друг друга за руки: «держа каждого другого руки») very tight (очень крепко) and shaking with fear (и трясясь от страха).

At last they grew bolder (наконец они стали смелее = осмелели/набрались храбрости; to grow — становиться; bold — смелый), and began to think (и начали думать = и задумались) how they could get away (как им выбраться оттуда: «как они могут выбраться прочь»). They tried to open the window (они попытались открыть окно), and found to their joy (и обнаружили к своей радости: «к их радости») that Tom Tiddler had forgotten to lock it (что Том Тидлер забыл его закрыть; to forget— забывать; had forgotten — забыл). They crept out (они выползли наружу; to creep— ползти; красться) very quietly (очень тихо; quiet — тихий; quietly — тихо) and climbed down (и слезли вниз) by the thick ivy (по толстому плющу /вьющееся растение/) which grew up the wall (который рос вверх по стене; to grow— расти; становиться).

The goblins ran as fast as they could (гоблины бежали так быстро, как они могли), only stopping to fill a sack (только остановившись, чтобы наполнить мешок) which they had found (который они нашли) with gold and silver (золотом и серебром). They knew that Tom Tiddler and his wife were at tea (они знали, что Том Тидлер и его жена были за чаем; to know — знать), and would not think of coming out (и не подумают /о том/ чтобы выйти наружу) for some time (некоторое время: «в течение некоторого времени»).

The brothers managed (братья сумели), after a great deal of hard work (после немалых усилий: «после большого количества тяжелой/напряженной работы; hard — жесткий; тяжелый /например, о работе/), to get the sack over the fence (перевалить мешок через забор), and as it was too heavy (а поскольку он был слишко тяжел) to drag with them (чтобы утащить его с собой: «тащить его с ними») they agreed to bury it in the forest (они условились закопать его в лесу) and dig it up (и выкопать его) as they came back (когда они вернутся; to come back— возвращаться: «приходить обратно»).

Just when they were ready (как раз когда они были готовы) a rabbit came up to them (к ним подошел кролик; to come up — подходить). “Hullo, little chaps (привет, ребятки: «маленькие приятели»),” said the rabbit (сказал кролик), “where are you off to (куда вы направляетесь; where — где; where … to = to where — куда; to be off — уходить; начинатьдвижение, отправляться)?”

“We are on our way (мы идем: «мы на пути») to the fairies' cave (к пещере фей),” they replied (ответили они).
