It is handed down by a cultural analogue of genetics, changing slowly over the centuries, until eventually various strands have diverged to the point of mutual unintelligibility.Медленные, протекающие столетиями, аналогичные генетическим культурные процессы в конце концов приводят к расхождению языков, имеющих общего предка, до уровня взаимного непонимания их носителями друг друга.Dawkins, Richard / The God DelusionДокинз, Ричард / Бог как иллюзияБог как иллюзияДокинз, Ричард© 2006 by Richard Dawkins© H.

In the evenings the old man sat squinting into the campfires, his bony fingers stroking the gray strands of his moustache.По вечерам старый Сатанк сидел, глядя сощурившись на пламя костра, и поглаживал костлявыми пальцами свои седые усы.Brown , Dee / Bury my Heart at Wounded KneeБраун, Ди / Схороните мое сердце у Вундед-ниСхороните мое сердце у Вундед-ниБраун, Ди© Издательство "Прогресс", 1984Bury my Heart at Wounded KneeBrown , Dee© 1970 by Dee Brown

I took a whiff of her thick, shiny hair, the familiar sugary Zoe-like smell that always reminded me of when she was a toddler, and smoothed a couple of unruly strands down with my palm.Я вдохнула запах ее густых, блестящих волос, до боли знакомый, сладкий запах моей Зои, который всегда напоминал мне о тех временах, когда она была совсем маленькой, и пригладила прядку непокорных волос.Rosnay, Tatiana de / Sarah's KeyРосней, Татьяна де / Ключ СарыКлюч СарыРосней, Татьяна деSarah's KeyRosnay, Tatiana de© 2007 by Tatiana de Rosnay

Something of the same strange phenomenon has also occurred in the other three theories that provide the main strands of explanation of the fabric of reality: the theories of computation, evolution and knowledge.Нечто подобное этому же странному явлению произошло и в трех других теориях, которые обеспечивают основные нити объяснения структуры реальности: в теориях вычисления, эволюции и познания.Deutsch, David / The Fabric of RealityДойч, Дэвид / Структура реальностиСтруктура реальностиДойч, Дэвид© Перевод на русский язык, НИЦ «Регулярная и хаотическая динамика», 2001The Fabric of RealityDeutsch, David© David Deutsch, 1997

Viscous, warm strands of the stuff tugged at his lips when they parted to let out a groan, as if he’d been dropped in a ditch filled with fresh entrails from a slaughterhouse.Вязкие теплые жилки грязи тянули за губы, когда он попытался их разомкнуть и застонать. Его словно бросили в канаву вместе со свежими кишками со скотобойни.Westerfeld, Scott / Touching DarknessВестерфельд, Скотт / Прикосновение ТьмыПрикосновение ТьмыВестерфельд, Скотт© 2004 by Alloy Entertainment and Scott David Westerfield© Перевод.Е.
