    • 1893, Антон Чехов , “II”, in Рассказ неизвестного человека; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., An Anonymous Story, 1917:
      Оттого́ ли, что я не ворова́л вме́сте с не́ю и́ли не изъявля́л никако́го жела́ния стать её любо́вником, что, вероя́тно, оскорбля́ло её, и́ли, быть мо́жет, оттого́, что она́ чу́яла во мне чужо́го челове́ка, она́ возненави́дела меня́ с пе́рвого же дня.
      Ottovó li, što ja ne vorovál vméste s néju íli ne izʺjavljál nikakóvo želánija statʹ jejó ljubóvnikom, što, verojátno, oskorbljálo jejó, íli, bytʹ móžet, ottovó, što oná čújala vo mne čužóvo čelovéka, oná voznenavídela menjá s pérvovo že dnja.
      Either because I did not steal as she did, or because I displayed no desire to become her lover, which she probably looked upon as an insult, or perhaps because she felt that I was a man of a different order, she hated me from the first day.
