Let's talk about the interesting expression "in the middle of nowhere." The meaning of phraseology, synonyms, as well as examples will be considered today.
Kulichki is what?
There is an interesting and strange association in this sense: Easter cakes are baked for Easter. How the hell is connected with this bright tradition? No way. In fact, harmony is to blame for this fallacy. Indeed, what the hell suddenly came to mind to necessarily treat an unknown visitor with baking? In fact, in the proverb “the devil is on the fist” (the meaning of phraseology is discussed later) we are talking about something completely different.
In Russia, the bumps in the swamp were called kulichki. And the latter, as you know, can not do without evil spirits, which simply have nowhere else to go, because people do not too much favor them. Devils, for example, are driven by the cross. The reader probably knows all these stories. But sometimes the devil is lucky, and they send him. For example: “The boss is completely mad, he says that we need to carry our products to the masses, so go, Peter, to Magadan. Good masses, you can’t say anything. They sent me to hell with pies. ” How can one not recall the famous replica of the hero of the “Diamond Hand”: “Well, you will be in Kolyma ...”.
Value
Turning to the origin of expressions is very important, because it gives depth to the story, and we recall our roots. Also, it is impossible to come up with a better preface to the meaning of the phraseology “in the hell on the sandpit”. The latter stands for: very far. After all, it is difficult to imagine a swamp in the city center and even on the outskirts of the city, although, since Russia is a country of paradoxes, everything, of course, is possible in it, but not so much.
Another value is more interesting: why do they say that? There are several topics that are unethical to discuss, and, apparently, they have been under a relative ban for quite some time. For example, in many countries it is not customary to ask about salaries, money. We do not have such complexes. If someone got a job, they immediately ask him: “And what is the salary?” Usually only interested in order to mentally say: "Well, I have more, which means I'm better."
The situation is similar with the question: “Where?”. The meaning of phraseology “in the hell of a fist” not only comes down to expressing annoyance regarding a distant business trip, but it can also serve as an excuse when a person does not want to devote an acquaintance whom he meets into his affairs. Maybe because he does not want interference in his personal life, or maybe there are specific reasons for this.
Synonyms
Sometimes you need to decipher the expression in one word. We are lucky, and we can provide the reader with not only similar adverbs in meaning, but also similar stable phrases. Let's start with adverbs, perhaps:
- long away;
- far away;
- not close.
And phraseological replacements:
- Where Makar did not drive calves.
- To hell with horns.
- Where the raven does not bring bones.
For symmetry, leave three positions in each list. Here one cannot but admire the imagery of expressions. There are phraseologisms, the linguistic juiciness of which we no longer feel, but these are not such, because human modern rumor rarely recalls them. Such are the synonyms for "the devil on the pies." It turned out ambiguous, but true.
A long journey is not always a burden to man
Any tale begins with the fact that it is difficult for the hero alone or due to certain circumstances to go home, and he goes on a journey and does not assume what trials will fall on his lot. The same fabulous principle is used in the film “Route 60”. The main character did not know what awaited him, but since his life was not the most interesting, and he longed for answers, he set off without delay. As a result, he hit a big jackpot.
However, there are much more fans to read or watch about adventures than those who are ready to make them. There is always a chance to go where Makar did not drive calves, and then what? Therefore, virtual travel is preferable.
We looked at the phrase “the devil on the puddings”. We hope that now the reader will use it in his everyday speech, of course, to the place and to the time.
