старичок (*** The "senior citizen" is an official term used by the government, not an informal expression***: "The elderly gent with the walking stick is interested in your reactions." He looked halfway across the lobby to where a thin, old, bloodless man sat in a very low round-backed padded chair with his chin on gloved hands and the gloved hands on the crook of a stick. He stared unblinkingly in our direction. (Raymond Chandler) ART Vancouver) |
