Right now, his fellow first-year novice, Baldwin, had finished digging dirt out from under his nails with his shaving knife and now he stuck that knife into the minute gap between two warping planks.
В этот момент его товарищ по первому году послушания, Болдуин, закончил выковыривать бритвенным ножом грязь из‑под ногтей и воткнул лезвие в крошечную щель между двумя досками.

She was thinking of her family, and she did not notice that the sleet was now nearly as hard as hail; it rattled off the big Buick like the tapping of countless hammers, driving little nails.
Она думала о своей семье и совершенно не замечала, что ледяной дождь теперь скорее напоминает крупный град и громко стучит по крыше «бьюика» — точно бесчисленные молотки забивают бесчисленные гвозди.

The fire under his nails spreads out around us, blue and green; the flames have the raging heads of animals—sheknaths, nishori, rock-targs—and they grow larger with every step we take.
На концах языков – яростно ощеренные головы хищников: шекнатов, нишори, горных таргов. С каждым нашим шагом головы становятся все больше.

I was reminded a little of Mrs. Chetty's youngest Edie, you know but I think that was just because this poor girl bit her nails and her front teeth stuck out a little.
Хотя эта неизвестная бедняжка заставила меня почему‑то подумать о младшей дочери миссис Четти. Ну, вы знаете.., об Эди.., той, что грызла ногти. У нее еще слегка выдавалась верхняя челюсть.

The nails were broken and discoloured and the skin was hard. It hardly enlightened me as much as I should have liked it to have done.
Обломанные бесцветные ногти и грубая кожа ни о чем мне не говорили.

But the clicking of her nails against the desk brought me back to reality, and I quickly picked up the tray and carefully walked out of her office.
Но тут стук ее ноготков по столу вернул меня к действительности, я подхватила поднос и осторожно вышла из кабинета.

And the land-surveyor only took her fancy through not cutting his nails and wearing tight trousers.
А землемер только тем и взял, что не стриг ногтей да пантолоны носил в обтяжку.

The moon and the prison, and the nails on the fence, and the far-away flames at the bone-charring factory were all terrible.
Были страшны и луна, и тюрьма, и гвозди на заборе, и далекий пламень в костопальном заводе.
