ЩО MUNRO ОЗНАЧАЄ У АНГЛІЙСЬКА?
Мунро
Мунро (слухати (допомога · інформація)) - це гора в Шотландії з висотою більше 3000 футів (914,4 м). Мунро названо на честь сера Х'ю Манро, 4-го баронета (1856-1919), який видав перший список таких пагорбів, відомих під назвою "Таблиці Мунроса", в 1891 році. Вершина Манро - це саміт, який не розглядається як окрема гора, і яка більше 3000 футів. У перегляді таблиць, опублікованих Шотландським альпіністським клубом у 2012 році, налічується 282 Munros та 227 додаткових допоміжних вершин. Найвідоміший Мунро - Бен-Невіс, найвища гора на Британських островах. Мунрос Шотландії представляє складні умови для туристів, особливо взимку. Щорічно люди гинуть на горах. Тим не менш, популярна практика серед гірських велосипедів - це "Munro bagging", метою якого є піднятися на всі перелічені Мунрос. Станом на 2009 рік більше 4000 людей повідомили про завершення раунду. Перший безперервний раунд "Мунроса" був завершений Хаммішем Брауном у 1974 році, тоді як нинішній власник рекорду найшвидшого безперервного туру - Стівен Пік, який завершив свій круглий стіл 2010 року лише за 40 днів.

АНГЛІЙСЬКА ЦИТАТИ ІЗ «MUNRO»
Відомі цитати та речення зі словом
Munro.
Peggy Atwood, Alice Munro, Hugh Hood, Michael Ondaatje - these are all old friends from my early 20s.
I'm sure I've been influenced by every fine writer I've ever read, from Dickens and Austen to Auden and Jane Hirshfield. And also, the short stories of Updike, Cheever, Munro, Alice Adams, and Doris Lessing. And the plays of Oscar Wilde. And paintings by Alice Neel and Matisse.
I think the few writers who influenced me most in writing short stories are Alice Munro and Grace Paley. They're very different, and I can't do what they do, but reading them gives me hope that I'll learn something from them.
Alice Munro is a particular kind of short story writer in that she writes long, character-driven short stories.
I love contemporary North American fiction and short fiction. My favorite writer is Jonathan Franzen, and my favorite writers of short fiction are George Saunders and Alice Munro.
Alice Munro is not only revered, she is cherished, her stories handled lovingly, turned over and over, gazed at and studied and breathed in with something approaching awe. She has never, over the years, written the way any of her contemporaries have.
I'm kind of a mash-up of taste - Graham Greene and Jane Austen; W.G. Sebald and Alice Munro.
It wasn't until I started to read short stories - by people like Alice Munro, Mavis Gallant, John Updike... Eudora Welty - that I became excited about the possibilities of writing.
