There was a tinkle at my bell, and I left her to open the door. In a moment I heard Stroeve’s voice asking if I was in.
Зазвенел звонок. Она открыла дверь, и раздался голос Стрева, спрашивающий, дома ли я.

As if to underscore this, there was a soft bang-and-tinkle as something imploded and the first puff of smoke seeped from the ventilator panels.
Словно в подтверждение этой мысли где‑то что‑то взорвалось, и первый клок дыма просочился в Читальню через вентиляционную панель.

The bell gave a faint tinkle as though it were made of tin and not of copper.
Звонок брякнул слабо, как будто был сделан из жести, а не из меди.

Dashing at the black man, he smote at him with such good will that the other let his knife tinkle into the roadway, and hopped howling to a safer distance.
Ринувшись на чернокожего, он ударил его с такой силой, что тот выронил нож на дорогу и, взвыв, отскочил на безопасное расстояние.

I can hear the creak of his shoes and the tinkle as he puts down the last glass of champagne of his lifetime.
Я слышу в этой гробовой тишине, как скрипят его лакированные туфли и как звенит бокал, который он поставил на стол, последний раз в этой жизни выпив шампанское.

He had forgotten the note of that bell, and now its peculiar tinkle seemed to remind him of something and to bring it clearly before him....
Он уже забыл звон этого колокольчика, и теперь этот особенный звон как будто вдруг ему что-то напомнил и ясно представил...

Carefully he took it off and held it up, and the gems on it glittered like stars. and the sound of the shaken rings was like the tinkle of rain in a pool.
Арагорн снял ее, слегка встряхнул - и драгоценные камни радужно сверкнули, а шорох тонких кольчужных колец напомнил ему шум летнего дождичка.

She is teaching Lida to sing 'My Village,' the boy to dance, Polenka the same. She is tearing up all the clothes, and making them little caps like actors; she means to carry a tin basin and make it tinkle, instead of music...
Леню учит петь "Хуторок", мальчика плясать, Полину Михайловну тоже, рвет все платья; делает им какие-то шапочки, как актерам; сама хочет таз нести, чтобы колотить, вместо музыки...

Then Dick bowed his head, and clutching the arms of his chair fought with his sweating self till the tinkle of plates told him that something to eat was being set before him.
Тогда Дик опускал голову и, вцепившись руками в ручки кресла, сидел неподвижно, обливаясь потом и стараясь побороть в себе эти страхи, пока, наконец, звон тарелок не возвещал ему, что принесли кушать.

The sun glanced off the water, making diamonds out of every ripple, and the air was sprayed with the silver tinkle of the singing brook.
Солнце отсвечивало в воде, мельчайшая рябь искрилась алмазами, в воздухе серебром рассыпались переливчатые трели ручья.

Whether it be the tinkle of a lone sheep bell o'er some quiet landscape, or the glimmer of beauty in sylvan places, or the show of soul in some passing eye, the heart knows and makes answer, following.
Звякнет ли бубенчик одинокой овцы на тихом пастбище, сверкнет ли красотою сельский уголок, обдаст ли душевным теплом мимолетный взгляд, — сердце чувствует, отвечает, летит навстречу.

The Edgware Road was then a road, 'tis true; with tinkling waggons passing now and then, and fragrant walls of snowy hawthorn blossoms.
Эджуэр-роуд, или Эджуэрская дорога, и впрямь была проезжей дорогой, и дребезжащие повозки тянулись по ней между двумя рядами благоухающих кустов боярышника.
