Examples from texts

The sun was almost vertically above us now: splinters of light darted here and there from the glass of the hearse and the bright brass-work of the coffin.
Солнце стояло почти над головой; вокруг прыгали солнечные зайчики от стекол катафалка и медных украшений гроба.

Quite vividly he remembered a moment from his earliest youth: a huge sunlit courtyard at the end of the Preobrazhenka Street, splinters of sun in bottles, broken bricks, free, stray dogs.
Внезапно и ясно почему-то вспомнился кусок самой ранней юности - солнечный необьятный двор у Преображенской заставы, осколки солнца в бутылках, битый кирпич, вольные псы побродяги.

Something suddenly burst with a crash and lighted up the bridge ahead of them, the wagon driving over it, and a man on horseback. The splinters fell into the waves with a hiss, and sent up the water in splashes.
Что-то вдруг с треском осветило мост впереди, едущую по нем повозку и верхового, и осколки, с свистом поднимая брызги, попадали в воду.

Far worse than the sound of the chimes or the smells was the way the ball was insinuating itself into his already compromised joints, filling them up with what felt like splinters of broken glass.
Колокольца и запахи, конечно, доставляли неудобства, но куда сильнее сказывалось воздействие Черного Тринадцатого на уже поврежденные болезнью суставы. Казалось, шар подсыпал в них толченое стекло.

If we are not hewn down, or destroyed by fire or blast of sorcery, we could split Isengard into splinters and crack its walls into rubble.
Изрубить-то нас, сильно постаравшись, можно, сжечь или чародейством каким одолеть - тоже не очень, но все-таки можно, а мы зато, коли захотим, и Изенгард вдребезги разнесем, и от стен его одно крошево оставим, понятно?
