Hello. & thank you !
"Ozero, oblako, bashnya" (...) published in 1937
literally: (lake, cloud, tower) [Lac, nuage, tour]
when i realized that
French [tour] has 2 meanings
1. tower
2. circuit (as in [tour de France] ) which is syn. with [courses]
each corresponding to
1. Mountain (the fountain tower) and
2. river (system),
i felt pretty satisfied at last.
faire le tour du monde
faire un tour d'horizon
[le sang ne m'a fait qu'un tour] <------------
ditionary (Harrap's) says: (my heart seemed to stop beating)
i imagine this means
[my heart stopped] (or skipped a beat)
or
[my heart suddenly quickened] (see below)
(from surprise, fear, anger, ... )
(becoming upset) (blood rushing)
>>>
"Son sang ne fait qu'un tour"
Cette expression provient de "tourner les sangs", datant de 1790
environ, et signifie qu'une personne est bouleversée, que son rythme
cardiaque a brusquement augmenté, entraînant ainsi un passage plus
rapide du sang du coeur aux muscles et des muscles au coeur.

Now i'm even more satisfied.
i'm ready for the new [Blade Runner] movie.
