Examples from texts

If you get to be Gruensberg's secretary—and maybe you would, if you kept up your shorthand and didn't go sneaking off to concerts and talkfests every evening—I guess you'll find thirty-five or forty bones a week worth while!"
Если ты станешь секретаршей Грюнсберга, — а ты бы наверно добилась этого, если б побольше занималась стенографией и не бегала каждый вечер по всяким концертам и собраниям, — ты увидишь, что тридцать пять — сорок монет в неделю — очень «стоящее» дело!

Near them struts the old garrison rat -- the superintendent with his mawkish, sneaking smile.
Около них ходит отставная гарнизонная крыса - смотритель со своей сладенькой, ябеднической улыбочкой.

And I always suspect that your activities have behind 'em the sneaking purpose of luring the poor chumps into religion--even into Methodism!"
Я всегда подозревал, что за вашей деятельностью кроется низкий замысел - заманить бедных простаков в церковь, пусть даже методистскую!

He does not live here, but he comes sneaking in here by night to pour his devil's brew of sedition into the, I must say, highly capable local traitors.
Он не живет здесь постоянно, но, как тать, пробирается сюда под покровом ночи, чтобы подстрекать к мятежу здешних, очень, кстати сказать, активных предателей.

They had left before dawn, sneaking out of Vatican City without alerting anyone of their departure.
Они ушли до рассвета, выскользнув из Ватикана так незаметно, что никто и ухом не повел.

There could be but one ending. The team dispersed in ignominious defeat, and it was not until after dark that the dogs came sneaking back, one by one, by meekness and humility signifying their fealty to White Fang.
Конец мог быть только один – собаки разбежались, потерпев поражение, и вернулись обратно лишь с наступлением темноты, униженно и кротко заявляя Белому Клыку о своей покорности.

The room was bathed in the soft twilight of a half-moon peeking in through the threadbare curtains, the dimness occasionally brightening as drafts sneaking around the ancient window panes rustled the curtains.
Свет полумесяца, проникавший сквозь занавески, создавал в комнате мягкий полумрак; время от времени сквозняк колыхал старую ткань, и тогда на мгновение становилось чуть светлее.

"And," said Weaver, "if any young women fancies sneaking back up there to dance around without their drawers on, we'll be sure to see 'em."
– А кроме того, – подхватил Ткач, – если каким-нибудь девчонкам снова приспичит прокрасться туда, чтобы поплясать без штанов, мы их обязательно увидим.

I'd definitely been snotting on myself when he walked up, and I had the sneaking suspicion he'd witnessed at least part of the nightmare between Heath and me.
Когда Эрик подошел, я как раз сморкалась, и еще у меня было подозрение, что он был свидетелем, по меньшей мере, завершения нашей с Хитом кошмарной сцены.

He pulled out his phone and turned it off so it wouldn’t possibly vibrate while they were sneaking the house.
Достал телефон и выключил, чтобы тот вдруг не зажужжал, когда они станут подкрадываться к дому.

The missile hummed through the air right above the dwarf, and splattered into the chest of an orc that had been sneaking up on him from behind.
Стрела просвистела над Чарморффом и вонзилась в грудь орка, подбиравшегося к нему сзади.

Nevertheless he felt a little prick of ambition, a sneaking desire to have another battle with that ptarmigan hen-only the hawk had carried her away.
И все же его самолюбие было ущемлено. Ему вдруг захотелось еще раз схватиться с большой птицей, – жаль, что ястреб унес ее.
