Olga, здесь ведь - "не сделав то, что было оговорено" -???

Holy Molyadded a comment 8 years ago

При чем тут «не сделав»? Он на словах согласился на что-то, что попытался не внести в контракт.

Holy Molyadded a comment 8 years ago

AL, перечитайте ещё раз предложение.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

Ольга права. Он всё ещё ничего не делал - речь тут пока о договоре.

` ALadded a comment 8 years ago

(Дословно): Он (уже!) попытался схитрить, оставив в стороне/отложив в сторону (=не сделав) то, на что он (уже!) согласился по контракту/ что уже было оговорено в контракте.

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

Al, he didn’t do anything! Read it again... he tried to LEAVE something OUT OF THE CONTRACT when he was writing it. He was trying to pull a fast one by getting the other person to sign it without those things in place so that it would be too late once he did sign it.

(Дословно): Он (уже!) попытался схитрить, упустив (=не вписав) то, на что он (уже!) согласился ВКЛЮЧИТЬ в контракт.

Holy Molyadded a comment 8 years ago

AL, вы в элементарном предложении не можете разобраться.
Давайте на пальцах.
He tried to pull a fast one (он пытался схитрить) - каким образом? - by leaving WHAT HE AGREED TO out of the contract.
Так понятнее?

Holy Molyadded a comment 8 years ago

(уже!) тут вообще ни при чём

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

Olga, I was trying to use his own formula to show him the significant elements of the sentence. Does that make sense?

Holy Molyadded a comment 8 years ago

Uly, it does make sense.

` ALadded a comment 8 years ago

Uly, Olga, you are quite right. Thank you very much for explanation.

Holy Molyadded a comment 8 years ago

You’re very welcome, AL

Uly, why is there no past perfect there? Had there been "had agreed", it would be much easier to figure out that he had agreed before he tried to do something else. Isn't it the underlying meaning of the past perfect? (I'm not trying to argue, I'm just wondering.)

⁌ ULY ⁍added a comment 8 years ago

Youre right, and, in fact, you could conceivably say HAD AGREED TO in this sentence, but you don’t have to.
