    • 1898, Антон Чехов [Anton Chekhov], Крыжовник; English translation from S. S. Koteliansky and Gilbert Cannan, transl., Gooseberries, 1920:
      — Да, давно́ я уже́ не мы́лся, — говори́л он, раздева́ясь. — Купа́льня у меня́, как ви́дите, хоро́шая, оте́ц ещё́ стро́ил, но мы́ться ка́к-то всё не́когда.
      — Da, davnó ja užé ne mýlsja, — govoríl on, razdevájasʹ. — Kupálʹnja u menjá, kak vídite, xoróšaja, otéc ješčó stróil, no mýtʹsja kák-to vsjo nékogda.
      "Yes," he said, "it is a long time since I had a bath. My bathing-shed is all right, as you see. My father and I put it up, but somehow I have no time to bathe."
