Пожалуйста, помогите с передачей в переводе словечка "отставить" (в значении "нет, вру", "нет, ошибся") в речи отставного военного.

Пример того, что имеется в виду: "Было это в январе - а-атставить, в феврале прошлого года."

Крайне желательно сохранить в переводе ассоциацию с военным лексиконом.

Буду признателен за помощь.

Aiduza, я думал об "as you were", но будет ли это воспринято аналогично русскому выражению? Может, уже глаза замылены, но я не могу найти подтверждающих примеров.

It happened in January - no - in February last year...Правда, здесь нет "военности"..

?

Или каким-то междометием выразить?

Только, скорее, This was January - no, actually, February..

А все предложенные выше варианты звучат в данном ("гражданском") контексте как-то неестественно, имхо, 'stilted', что называется..

по аналогии с unsee, undo..

This was January - no, unroger that! This was February..

будет и некая "военность")

- Was this (in) January? - Negative! - It was (in) February last year!...

Может, подошло бы что-то из переводов "отбой" (из словаря МТ)? Там есть и negative, а также all clear, sound off...

Eric Olkha,

в форме типа монолог "вопрос - ответ - поправка", боюсь, не получится. Он говорит длинными и сложными предложениями, в середине которых часто поправляется таким образом, и преобразовать даже части таких предложений из утвердительных в вопросительные будет проблематично. Однако вариант хорош, надо будет подумать.

"... But one of the hardest -  scratch that  - the hardest thing about being a commander is having the heartbreaking task of breaking the news to ..."

"... No, scratch that. It was just a plane - a plane being directed by 39th Operations Squadron Airmen in the tower ..."

"... Scratch that . It DOES work. I know because I've seen it, and it's going to change the way we think of operational warfare forever. ..."

'As you were' doesn't mean exactly the same as 'отставить'. It doesn't mean 'ignore what I've just said' or 'I've made a mistake', but more 'Return to what you were doing (eg, before I came into the room and you stood up to salute me)'. However, it definitely has a military tone and isn't normally used by civilians. It would probably be the best if the text is a humorous one or you were trying to highlight the fact that the speaker's an ex-soldier/sailor/airman.

Otherwise, 'Correction' is probably best. It's used by both civilians and the military but is slightly formal. It's a term that is commonly used in radio communications -- for example, by a policeman reporting to his police station that: "The driver is aged 42 -- correction, 52" -- as opposed to the less formal, everyday "42 -- I mean, 52" or "42 -- sorry, 52".

I've never heard of 'belay' being used by the UK armed forces, but it may be a US military term. 'Halt!' is used by the military, but usually only to stop road traffic or to stop soldiers who are marching, as in the order "Parade, Halt!" It doesn't mean 'I've made a mistake'.

In my army unit (artillery), it was "Check that." As in "Go to the motor pool and..Check that, go to the orderly room..." Probably came from the phrase "Check Fire!" meaning for the battery to stop firing immediately.

I've also heard (and used) the phrase "belay my last," which is a shortened form of "belay my last order."

During my Army days, it was  disregard . In my Navy days,  belay my last .

Officially, I heard "Disregard" and "As you were" used most often. In certain situations "Aw Fuck" also worked.

Трудно представить, как вышеуказанные варианты можно было бы использовать в формуле "бла-бла-бла ...Отставить, не бла-бла-бла" со слов отставного военного.

❝'As you were' doesn't mean exactly the same as 'отставить'. It doesn't mean 'ignore what I've just said' or 'I've made a mistake'❞

Now 'отставить' doesn't normally mean 'ignore what I've just said' or 'I've made a mistake', either.

❝if ... you were trying to highlight the fact that the speaker's an ex-soldier/sailor/airman❞

Yes, that's why I started this thread.

Here, if it's of use, is an example of "As you were" being used. It's spoken 0:07 secs into the clip. The clip features UK Air Cadets (=schoolchildren/teenagers interested in flying etc and possibly in joining the RAF when they leave school -- which is why the drill instructor sounds so young!). The Air Cadets' commands are the same as those used in the RAF and 95% the same as those used in the British Army.

That's (obviously?) a bit of an overstatement ) 

'Knowledge' borrowed from:

http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=398105

My only knowledge of the forces is that I was in the local Air Cadets (then called the Air Training Corps) when I was at secondary school in the early 1970s, where, amongst other things, we did lots of drill (marching). Plus watching occasional military parades on TV for the past 50 years!

Must have not always been fun, for a schoolboy - doing those drills and stuff...

As for myself, I'm only starting to find the circus clowns amusing again (if you know what that means)) )

thank you

Malo,

спасибо за вариант, но это вряд ли. Насколько я понимаю, stand down все-таки подразумевает отзыв прказа находиться в боевой готовности, а не указание игнорировать предыдущую команду.

Еще раз спасибо всем принявшим участие и отдельно pborysich.
