Elena, this is a ladder, not a scale)

⁌ ULY ⁍publicó un comentario 8 years ago

More dictionary magic! It’s correct, but it’s a completely different concept. The social scale is the ratio between the social classes in any country. The social ladder refers to one’s place in society, usually within a specific community, like a city, and namely among its elite. You can climb one, metaphorically, but not the other. Why that dictionary has them together is beyond me because they are not interchangeable.

"She saw her husband's funeral as a way to claw her way up the social ladder a couple more rungs. After all, all of New York's movers and shakers would be there, showering her with condolences and well-wishes."
"Она усмотрела в похоронах мужа возможность подняться по социальной лестнице на пару ступенек выше. В конце концов, на них будут все влиятельные люди Нью-Йорка с соболезнованиями и утешениями в её адрес".
Хотелось написать "осыпая её соболезнованиями и пожеланиями благополучия", но поборола соблазн. ;)
Потрясные сниппеты, Улий! Правда, Елена? ;))

Когда уточнить ЧТО именно: It goes without saying that your English has improved drastically over the past three months.
