в большой опасности, с нависшей угрозой (?)

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 5 years ago

Wouldn’t находящийся в серьезной опасности suggest someone BEING in danger, rather than something POSING danger?

Несомненно. На мой взгляд, неправильно

Почему бы тогда не сказать просто dangerous?

Улий, ты прав. Это комоде - dresser that tipped over on a toddler.

I can’t stand the expression “dangerously unsafe,” but it exists. The logic is that anything used innapropriately CAN be unsafe, but some such things can be unsafe to the point of posing a mortal DANGER to human life.

A person wouldn’t find themself in a position of being DANGEROUSLY UNSAFE if there is a threat to their welfare, only a thing can be such to others if it poses a threat.

Elena, remove that ridiculous translation!

Tatiana Gerasimenkoadded a comment 5 years ago

That's exactly why I posted it. Sounds nonsensical.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 5 years ago

MORTALLY or SERIOUSLY unsafe, I guess
