Thread: Оборот 'deep down'

Нашел тут фразу:

She deep down never liked him.

Каков смысл deep down? "до самой глубины" или "если вдаваться в детали"

Спасибо.

Ну например так
Idiom: deep down. In reality, although not in appearance

Something like в глубине души она никогда его не любила

Я думаю, что переводиться это должно, что-то вроде "истинно", "по-настоящему", "в глубине души" .

Всем спасибо за ответы.

Сопутствующий вопрос: как перевести
"Мы Вас любим, где-то в глубине души... очень глубоко..." ©
"We love you deep down... very deeply..."

My try: We love you, somewhere deep down, very deep down.

That's a good literal translation, but it sounds weird in English.

We usually say, "...from the bottom of our hearts".

I guess you could say, "...from the very depth of my(our) soul(s)", but even that sounds a little bit florid for all but the most dramatic situations.

I suggest: "We love you deeply, from the very depth of our souls." (or, "from the bottom of our hearts" -- a bit more natural)

Probably not so good because in Russian it's sarcasm. It's like "we love you... a little... a very little".

We must at heart love you so much.

We at heart may/really/quite love you... so much ???


in the depths of his own mind,
in the privacy of one's thoughts,
in the inmost recesses of the soul
we do love you... dearly

must ~ do ~ may ~ really ~ quite ?? We at heart really love you...


Фиг знает.

Aaah, ok, if it's sarcastic, then my version won't work either. Never mind.

I can't think of a clever way to say it in English that is close to the original and makes sense.
