Examples (примеры):
- Ученые высказали предположение, что неразборчивые изображения на скалах – это не просто каракули, а фрагмент незаконченного рисунка, например карта или изображение глаз человека.
Scientists have come up with an assumption that the rough images on the rocks are not just scribbles but a fragment of an incomplete picture, for example a map or the image of a human eye. - Подобно линиям на ладонях, каракули, которые мы неосознанно рисуем во время разговора, отражают мысли, чувства и даже жизненные позиции.
Like the lines on our palms, the doodles we draw unconsciously while talking reflect our thoughts, feelings and even attitudes.
