  1. insincerity, hypocrisy
    • 1886, Антон Чехов [Anton Chekhov], Несчастье; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., A Misfortune, 1917:
      — Не ста́влю я вам в вину́ ва́шу неи́скренность, — вздохну́л Ильи́н. — Э́то я так, к сло́ву пришло́сь… Ва́ша неи́скренность и есте́ственна и в поря́дке веще́й. Е́сли бы все лю́ди сговори́лись и ста́ли вдруг и́скренни, то всё бы у них пошло́ к чё́рту пра́хом.
      — Ne stávlju ja vam v vinú vášu neískrennostʹ, — vzdoxnúl Ilʹín. — Éto ja tak, k slóvu prišlósʹ… Váša neískrennostʹ i jestéstvenna i v porjádke veščéj. Jésli by vse ljúdi sgovorílisʹ i stáli vdrug ískrenni, to vsjo by u nix pošló k čórtu práxom.
      "I don't blame you for your insincerity," sighed Ilyin. "I did not mean that when I spoke of it. . . . Your insincerity is natural and in the order of things. If people agreed together and suddenly became sincere, everything would go to the devil."
