Subject: mummy ache
Подскажите, если кому попадалось следующее:

1. Mummy ache (контекста нет).
2. Механик по выпуску (автомобилей). Механик, который утром подписывает путевки.
3. Если у кого есть ссылка на грамматический материал, где говорится, что артикль не употребляется в следующем примере:

He took first place in the competition.

Исходя из контекста (поиск по Google), в котором употребляется выражение "Mummy ache", - это что-то типа "боль или тревога матери за своего ребенка".

Скорее как у AZ: мамино горе луковое.

С первым понятно, хотя уж редко оно употребляется - mummy ache - мамина забота, переживания и т.д.

А 2 и 3 (по 3-му нужна ссылка на грамматику, перерыл все свои, немогу найти точно, где сказано, что в таких примерах с числительными определенный артикль не употребляется).

В сети я находил очень мало примеров mummy ache. Подумал, может кому-то попадалось в живой речи. У меня был вариант материнская забота, но еще подумалось о другом.

А вот со вторым - целая проблема: не знаю английского точного варианта, носитель тоже не дал варианта подходящего, поэтому и сижу в невединии, на совещании как-то выкрутился, но хочется выяснить.

А с третьим - знаю, что без артикля, но для доказательства нужна хорошая ссылка.

Вот Вам ещё пара важных сысловых оттенков:
1. A couple of years ago I felt God had laid adoption on my heart again. I wanted to make sure it wasn't the "the mommy ache" and I was trying to pray it away!
2. ‘that certain mommy ache
I came face-to-face with a new emotion today - that certain ache in your heart when you can't give your child what he wants because it's bad for him.
Here's how it happened.
I was leafing through my husband's credit card rewards catalogue, looking for nice baby stuff we might claim. Right when I was trying to decide whether I liked the orange rocker better or the mini spray pool, Mikey snatched it from my hands.
He devoured it with his curious and eager eyes. I don't know if the colors or the texture of the paper attracted him, but he sure liked it a lot. It was fun watching him that way until...he suddenly crumpled a corner and shoved it into his mouth. Of course, I tried to pull it away from him. But he kept holding on to his Daddy's catalogue. It was a battle between the paper-eating boy and his alarmed Mommy.
When I finally succeeded and was able to yank it off his hands, the catalogue was a mess. The pages were torn and torn with bite marks. He only has one tooth for now but he sure knows how to bite pages off it.
The little guy suddenly wailed uncontrollably, his face reddening, tears streaming down his cheeks. The sound of his crying was painful, as if to say "why did you take it away from me? I was only playing with it." When you are a new mom and your baby does not know how to produce words yet, it doesn't stop you from knowing what his tears mean.
I suddenly felt like a villain - aching to give him back his precious catalogue but hesitating because he might chew on it, swallow paper lumps and choke on them. I was trying to calm him down but it didn't help much.
When his Daddy entered the room and asked what happened, I couldn't control myself and found myself shedding my own tears. I was face-to-face with an emotion I know I can only feel because I'm a mother. It ached to know that I hurt his feelings by taking away something he wanted and enjoyed for the sake of his own safety.
At that moment, I knew that starting in the near future, my boy and I are going to have moments like that when he will look at me with pain in his eyes because I will do something that will hurt him even if it meant my love. As the years go by, we will move on to bigger situations, bigger issues and I'm pretty sure I'll see that pained look on his face again and I'll feel that ache in my heart many more times - that ache that only a parent can feel.
After his dad gave him a rattle, he finally calmed down and started to get preoccupied with it. As I wiped my tears away, I looked at him and wished that if in the future we find ourselves in the same situation (no matter what the specifics are), he will snap out of it just as quickly as when he got that rattle.
