1861, Фёдор Достоевский , “Часть II. Глава II”, in Униженные и оскорблённые; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., The Insulted and Humiliated, London: Heinemann, 1915:Не́которые выраже́ния его́ бы́ли приме́тно вы́деланы, а в ины́х места́х его́ дли́нной и стра́нной свое́ю длинното́ю ре́чи он ка́к бы иску́сственно напуска́л на себя́ вид чудака́, си́лящегося скрыть пробива́ющееся чу́вство под ви́дом ю́мора, небре́жности и шу́тки.- Nékotoryje vyražénija jevó býli primétno výdelany, a v inýx mestáx jevó dlínnoj i stránnoj svojéju dlinnotóju réči on kák by iskússtvenno napuskál na sebjá vid čudaká, síljaščevosja skrytʹ probivájuščejesja čúvstvo pod vídom júmora, nebréžnosti i šútki.
