undercover, operates in the shadows, is slick a pig shit, nefarious, duplicitious, scheming/schemer Explanation: Будет очень тяжело отвечать на такой вопрос потому что, вариант, который исползуешь зависит от многых вещей. Вот, смотри екземплари внизу. You have to be wary of him. He seems innocent, non-descript, or innocent. He's not. He is undercover; he is more calculating than he seems. Watch out. If you give her too much information, you'll be sorry. She operates in the shadows like the CIA. You won't know there is a problem until the war has started. Don't trust that man! He is slick a pig shit and will fuck you over without a second thought. He listens well and remembers even the smallest details. He will ruin you on a whim if he gets bored. The previous week, he was on BBC1's Question Time for the first time, with Max Hastings, the former editor of The Daily Telegraph, who described him and Peter Mandelson as the two most duplicitous men in public life. That old man runs schemes. He is a schemer – always trying to get something for free on a technicality. Don't believe the propaganda of the Christian missionaries. They are nefarious in their actions in the developing world and always have been. There is no reason for a nun spreading the good news of the savior in Peru and Ecuador to be paid 800K per year by an oil company. She may seem sweet and kind, but she never mentioned to the natives in the Amazon she was getting paid 800K a year; she also didn't mention it to the diocese. They are only making waves about her monetary gain because they did not get a cut. Missionaries are tools of the capitalists and economic hitmen. |

mum keeper Explanation: There is an expression: to keep mum, so , presumably, mum keeper may be derived from this, though I choose not to insist. All the best. Eugene N -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2023-09-07 09:58:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It is someone as silent as a fish with his plans and intentions at the back of his mind. One'd better avoid or keep clear of him! Eugene N |
