1859, Иван Тургенев , “Глава 17”, in Дворянское гнездо; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., A House of Gentlefolk, 1917:— Э́кая она́ болту́шка, прости́ го́споди! — проворча́ла Ма́рфа Тимофе́евна, — чай, под секре́том тебе́ сообщи́ла, что вот, мол, како́й навёртывается жени́х. Шушу́кала бы с свои́м попо́вичем; нет, ви́дно, ей ма́ло. И ведь нет ещё ничего́, да и сла́ва бо́гу! а она́ уже́ болта́ет.- — Ékaja oná boltúška, prostí góspodi! — provorčála Márfa Timoféjevna, — čaj, pod sekrétom tebé soobščíla, što vot, mol, kakój navjórtyvajetsja ženíx. Šušúkala by s svoím popóvičem; net, vídno, jej málo. I vedʹ net ješčó ničevó, da i sláva bógu! a oná užé boltájet.
- "What a chatterbox she is, Lord save us!" muttered Marfa Timofyevna. "She told you, I suppose, as a secret that he has turned up as a suitor. She might have whispered it to her priest's son; no, he's not good enough for her, it seems. And so far there's nothing to tell, thank God, but already she's gossiping about it."
