Как перевести? (ru-en)

Пару дней назад, ты бы доложила на меня, не раздумывая ни секунды.

    A couple of days ago you'd've turned me in without thinking about it for a second.

    A couple of days ago you'd have laid information against me without any hesitation.

so доложить here means to denounce someone to the police with information?

Elena Bogomolovaдобавил комментарий 8 years ago

Not necessarily to the police. May be a better word "to inform on" (kind of to betray)

Elena Bogomolovaдобавил комментарий 8 years ago

In Russian we can also say донести, настучать

Elena Bogomolovaдобавил комментарий 8 years ago

Uly, you wrote "you'd've turned"- is it informal way of writing?

⁌ ULY ⁍добавил комментарий 8 years ago

Thank you, Elena. But "inform on" implies denouncing someone to an authority, usually the police, but also the FBI, the principal of a school, upper management at a company, etc. We actually use "turn somebody in" in this situation. Thank you for your answer :)

It's funny, I've never thought about the "correctness" of long contractions like I'd've and you'd've. I guess since it's natural to pronounce these verbs this way, it's correct to write them too. Especially since this original sentence is something one would say in a dialogue. Good question!

One more thing, when I typed those contractions, my computer didn't autocorrect them, so they must be in the standard dictionary :) I think they look cool - use them!

⁌ ULY ⁍добавил комментарий 8 years ago

By the way, they're pronounced а́йръв and ю́ръв.

To turn in - i'll try to remember. Thank you, Uly. They are really cool, these contractions:)

Anytime!
