close call n infml When I stop to think about it I feel it must have been a very close call Но когда я об этом задумываюсь, то мне кажется, что я уцелел только чудом We got here in one piece but there were too many close calls for my liking Мы доехали целыми и невредимыми, но по дороге было слишком много аварийных ситуаций
