«Плохо, плохо», — говорит покупатель; а когда отойдёт, то покупкой хвастает.
СП (БЛ)Человек, покупающий что-либо у тебя, всегда говорит: «Этот товар никуда не годен, и к тому же он слишком дорого стоит», но потом хвалится перед всеми удачной покупкой.
“It’s no good, it’s no good!” says the buyer— then goes off and boasts about the purchase.
NMV[It is] nothing (bad; vain), [it is] nothing (bad; vain), says the buyer: but when he is gone his way, then he boasts.
OJBIt is good for nothing, it is naught, saith the koneh (buyer), but when he is gone his way, then he boasteth.
T4TPeople look at things that they are about to buy, and in order to get it for a lower price sometimes they say, “◄It is no good/It is poor quality►,” but after they buy it, they go and boast about having bought it for a cheap price.
