The dog went on bravely, scrambling over, floundering through, and sometimes swimming; but when she had gained the farthest point reached by them, she sat down helplessly.
Собака храбро поднималась вперед, карабкалась и барахталась, иногда пускаясь вплавь, но, добравшись до того места, откуда они повернули назад, Мириам беспомощно села на задние лапы.

and a round head, all plastered over with wet hair, showed above water, it was blowing bubbles, this head; and floundering with two hands just at its very lips.
и круглая голова, вся облепленная мокрыми волосами, показалась над водой она пускала пузыри, эта голова две руки судорожно барахтались у самых ее губ...

You float in all this bunkum, I feel like a man floundering in a universe of soapsuds, up and downs, east and west.

Never can there come fog too thick, never can there come mud and mire too deep, to assort with the groping and floundering condition which this High Court of Chancery, most pestilent of hoary sinners, holds this day in the sight of heaven and earth.
И в самом непроглядном тумане и в самой глубокой грязи и трясине невозможно так заплутаться и так увязнуть, как ныне плутает и вязнет перед лицом земли и неба Верховный Канцлерский суд, этот зловреднейший из старых грешников.

Without such an alternative, one is likely to flounder dismally when reality proves a decision to be inoperative.
Не запасшись такими разнообразными вариантами, он неминуемо окажется "у разбитого корыта", когда выяснится, что принятое решение плохо согласуется с действительностью.

Only it wasn't ground, it was water, and she felt a panicky urge to flounder back to the beach before some killer U-boat with teeth took off one of her legs.
Да только говорил Скотт о суше, а она находилась в воде, вот и почувствовала паническое желание вернуться на берег, пока какая‑нибудь зубастая подлодка‑убийца не отхватила одну из её ног.

But on this occasion the thought that I was covered with fluff contributed to my discomfiture so that, in fact, I floundered a little and dropped into being over- familar.
Но в настоящем случае тому особенно способствовала еще и мысль, что я в пуху, так что я несколько даже сплошал и влез в фамильярность...

Flatfish such as flounder are relatively insensitive to sound and are unlikely to be deterred by vessel-generated noise.
Плоские рыбы, как, например камбала, относительно нечувствительны к звуковым колебаниям и маловероятно, что их отпугнет шум, создаваемый судами.
