contronyms, or Janus words: words that are their own opposites
на картинке — двуликий римский бог Янус, по имени которого получили свое название слова, также известные как контронимы или автоантонимы. например:
dust — и убирать пыль, и припылить: 🟧Dust your room, we are having guests later. 🟧Dust the top of the cake with icing sugar.
sanction — и разрешить, и запретить. тут можно догадаться только по более широкому контексту, отдельное предложение не даст нужной информации: 🔴You can do it: the government sanctioned it. 🔴You can't do it: the government sanctioned it.
oversight — и внимательный взгляд, и ошибка по недосмотру: 🟧The new manager was given oversight of the project. 🟧If you forgot to add sugar while baking cookies because you were texting a friend, it's an oversight.
в русском языке контронимы тоже есть. со словами санкция и просмотреть у нас, например, та же штука.

"Russians are really disconnected from the reality of what happening to their country," Andrey said. "So Telegram has become essential for understanding what's going on to the Russian-speaking world." Update March 8, 2022: EFF has clarified that Channels and Groups are not fully encrypted, end-to-end, updated our post to link to Telegram’s FAQ for Cloud and Secret chats, updated to clarify that auto-delete is available for group and channel admins, and added some additional links. But the Ukraine Crisis Media Center's Tsekhanovska points out that communications are often down in zones most affected by the war, making this sort of cross-referencing a luxury many cannot afford. As a result, the pandemic saw many newcomers to Telegram, including prominent anti-vaccine activists who used the app's hands-off approach to share false information on shots, a study from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue shows. In February 2014, the Ukrainian people ousted pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych, prompting Russia to invade and annex the Crimean peninsula. By the start of April, Pavel Durov had given his notice, with TechCrunch saying at the time that the CEO had resisted pressure to suppress pages criticizing the Russian government.
