на плечах висит старая кофта old jacket hung from his shoulders Explanation: Same expression in English. The implication can be that the jacket is too big, that the person is very thin, or that the jacket is shapeless or old. " His long, dark brown jacket hung from his shoulders, covering him to below the knees. " http://www.babylonbycandlelight.com/darkmyst/dm117.htm " A thick leather jacket hung from his shoulders as he lumbered through the street with a group of boys surrounding him" http://www.megspace.com/entertainment/ drakensis/carrot/gaijin11.txt "An old, and worn leather jacket hung from his shoulders and he had a rather charming smile" http://assm.asstr.org/Year2002/36031 "The slight stoop and the way his wrinkled jacket hangs from his shoulders are as integral to his performance in 'Harvey' as any of playwright Mary Chase's lines ... " http://members.tripod.com/~movie_pal/stewart.html "A collarless Italian leather biking jacket hangs from his shoulders atop a well worn Shetland wool sweater. " http://where.com/~mab/emma/logs/970424.txt "An especially warm jacket hangs from his shoulders -- one that's clearly seen better days" http://www.stanford.edu/~ajsabnis/silne/look.html - "Frink walks in the room. Black leather jacket hangs from his shoulders. " http://www.starbase118.net/forums/ index.php?showtopic=352&st=20 It also seems to me that the entire paragraph should be in the past tense, even though the Russian uses the narrative present in places. For example, "Pushchevik jumped up, shook himself, and and assumed his usual guise...he wore a cap made of oak bark...his trousers dangled...an old jacket made out of gray moss that Baba-Yaga had given him for his birthday hung from his shoulders..." etc. |
