      Вся́кий раз, когда́ я снима́л с него́ шу́бу, он хихи́кал и спра́шивал меня́: «Степа́н, ты жена́т?» — и зате́м сле́довали скабрёзные по́шлости — знак осо́бого ко мне внима́ния.

      Whenever I took off his fur coat he tittered and asked me: "Stepan, are you married?" and then unseemly vulgarities followed--by way of showing me special attention.
