| shaker. salt shaker. mover and shaker persoane cu influenta intr-o anumita sfera Explanation: Aceasta este o expresie si nu se refera literalmente la cine ce muta, misca sau scutura, ci la influenta pe care o au anumite persoane in anumite domenii de activitate sau sociale. "It originated in the setting of Arthur O'Shaughnessy's 1874 poem 'Ode', from his Music and Moonlight collection. In that poem, which singles out poets and musicians as the bards that guide lay thinking, O'Shaughnessy coined the phrase 'movers and shakers'". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs (2012-04-11 22:17:20 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "Movers & Shakers, brings together some of the key names in UK Property and provides a great forum for doing business" Lord Sugar -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2012-04-11 23:00:46 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In ce priveste "salt shaker" sau intradevar "sugar shaker" de care chiar nu am auzit pana acum, in romaneste de obicei se foloseste simplu "sarea" sau "piperul" si este foarte clar din context ca de fapt persoana cauta sau cere containerul de sare sau piper, indiferent in ce formas se prezinta. Ca si simplu termen "shaker" se foloseste la fel si in romaneste (vezi www.SHAKER [ȘEICĂR] s. n. recipient în care se agită, cu gheață, elementele unui cocteil. (< engl. shaker) ) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day6 hrs (2012-04-12 17:07:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "movers and shakers" este in general folosit la plural persoana a treia, si nu este o expresie de argou. Se spune despre cineva ca se invarte printre "movers and shakers" etc. Bineinteles ca se poate folosi pe scurt, "persoane cu influenta" Example sentence(s):
