Favour, to
| Глоссарий морской лексики и терминологии (английский язык) |
To be careful of; also to be fair for.—“favour her “ is purely a seaman`s term; as when it blows in squalls, and the vessel is going rap-full, with a stiff weather-helm and bow-seas, “favour her boy” is “ease the helm, let the sails lift, and head the sea.” so, in hauling in a rope, favour means to trust to the men`s force and elasticity, and not part the rope by taking a turn on a cleat, making a dead nip. a thorough seaman “favours” his spars and rigging, and sails his ship economically as well as expeditiously.

- Usually used to explain consumer demand in response to changes in prices. demand for basic goods such as bread is thought to be inelastic since the amount of bread bought changes little with price. if the price goes up, people have little choice but to pay it, but if it goes down they are unlikely to eat more bread. by comparison, luxury goods are price elastic. if the price of chauffeur-driven trips to work becomes too expensive, executives may switch to black cabs, or even the train.
