    • 1877, Лев Толстой , “Часть III. Глава XIX”, in Анна Каренина; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., Anna Karenina, 1901:
      Что́бы вы́йти из э́того затрудне́ния, он не мог проси́ть де́нег у ма́тери. После́днее её письмо́, полу́ченное им накану́не, тем в осо́бенности раздражи́ло его́, что в нём бы́ли намёки на то, что она́ гото́ва была́ помога́ть ему́ для успе́ха в све́те и на слу́жбе, а не для жи́зни, кото́рая скандализи́ровала всё хоро́шее о́бщество.
      Štóby výjti iz étovo zatrudnénija, on ne mog prosítʹ déneg u máteri. Poslédneje jejó pisʹmó, polúčennoje im nakanúne, tem v osóbennosti razdražílo jevó, što v njom býli namjóki na to, što oná gotóva bylá pomogátʹ jemú dlja uspéxa v svéte i na slúžbe, a ne dlja žízni, kotóraja skandalizírovala vsjo xoróšeje óbščestvo.
      To get out of these difficulties, he could not apply to his mother for money. Her last letter, which he had received the day before, had particularly exasperated him by the hints in it that she was quite ready to help him to succeed in the world and in the army, but not to lead a life which was a scandal to all good society.
