English term or phrase: Reach out at
Kalbama apie vystymosi sutrikimų turintį vaiką - niekaip nesuprantu to "at" vartojimo šiame sakinyje.

(...) is beginning to enjoy the company of some of her class peers; at times she can become over excited and requires close supervision as she would tend to reach out at the other children.

ištiesti rankas ir bandyti paliesti
Explanation:
Kaip native English speaker aš puikiai suprantu, tik nelengva išversti. Kaip sakėte, kalbama apie vystymosi sutrikimų turintį vaiką. "she is beginning to enjoy the company of some of her class peers." Pradeda jai patikti bendravimas su kitais mokiniais. "At times she can become over excited and requires close supervision as she would tend to reach out at the other children." Kartais labai susijaudina ir reikia ją prižiūrėti, kadangi ji linkusi ištiesti rankas ir bandyti paliesti kitus vaikus.

Va, ką nemokėjau pasakyti lietuviškai: „linkusi bandyti kabintis į kitus vaikus“. ☺ Tas "reach out at" – labai idiomatiška. "Reach out" (be "at") yra ištiesti rankas, bet kai pridedi "at", tada niuansas – bando pagriebti, paliesti.

Asker: Ačiū už paaiškinimą, kažkaip labai mane tas "at" glumino :). Tokiu atveju, gal tiktų, kad ji linkusi bandyti kabintis į kitus vaikus?
