At six o'clock in the evening after the war

Yaroslav Gashek

Phraseologism: At six o'clock in the evening after the war.

Meaning: Joking commentary on trying to set an exact date for the meeting well in advance..

Origin: The phrase first occurs in the novel (parts 2, 4) "The Adventures of the Good Soldier Schweik during the First World War" (1923) by the Czech writer Yaroslav Hasek (1883-1923). Schweik, in the midst of hostilities, arranged for his friends to meet at the pub "At the Chalice" (in Czech, "At Kalich") at six o'clock in the evening after the war. But this expression became popular thanks to the Soviet feature film "At six o'clock in the evening after the war" (1944, directed by Ivan Pyryev). The heroes of the film - Lieutenant Kudryashov (actor Yevgeny Samoilov) and kindergarten teacher Varya Pankova (actress Marina Ladynina) agreed to meet at the Kremlin wall "at six o'clock in the evening after the war." After going through many trials, they both kept their promise.

1. An expression of uncomplaining humility in the face of great loss. 2. Words of consolation for the loss of what was received without one's own efforts, given as if from above, and also, by "God's providence", taken away ..

Origin:

From the Bible. In the Old Testament (Book of Job) it is said about the trials that God sent him - all the property of Job, his house, and his children perished (1:19): "And behold, a great wind came from the wilderness and engulfed the four corners of the house, and the house fell on the youths, and they died..." Job said to this (1:21): "Naked I came out of my mother's womb, and naked I will return. The Lord gave, and the Lord took away, blessed be the name of the Lord!" All the trials sent by God, Job endured meekly, without losing faith. The expression "Job's suffering" also became winged, meaning all sorts of troubles that befell the innocent man Job the long-suffering.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>
