гл.

1. to lift; 2. to raise; 3. to pick up

Русский глагол поднимать не указывает на способ подъема, поэтому он может быть использован в разнообразных ситуациях, в то время как его английские соответствия конкретизированы по способу перемещения предмета. Круг ситуаций, в которых они употребляются, более узкий.

Не lifted the box and put it on his shoulder. — Он поднял ящик и поставил его себе на плечо. She lifted the child to look at the tiger. — Она подняла ребенка, чтобы он мог посмотреть на тигра.

2. to raise — поднимать (предполагает перемещение предмета в более высокое положение, но не подразумевает обязательного отделении этого предмета от поверхности): to raise smb to his feet — поднять кого-либо и поставить на ноги; to raise the curtain (the blind) — поднять занавес (жалюзи); to raise one's hand поднять руку; to raise one's voice — повысить голос; to raise one's wages поднять кому-либо зарплату; to raise one's hat (in greeting) — приподнять шляпу (в знак приветствия) (в данном словосочетании могут быть использованы глаголы to raise и to lift)

3. to pick up — поднять, подобрать (с пола): to pick up a note — поднять записку/подобрать записку; to pick up a handkerchief — поднять ( оброненный) носовой платок Не stopped to pick up his book. — Он остановился, чтобы поднять книгу ( которую он обронил).
