1888, Антон Чехов , Огни, Санкт-Петербург: Северный вестник; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., Lights, (Please provide a date or year):Я был на ли́нии желе́зной доро́ги, кото́рая ещё то́лько стро́илась. Высо́кая, наполови́ну гото́вая на́сыпь, ку́чи песку́, гли́ны и ще́бня, бара́ки, я́мы, разбро́санные ко́е-где́ та́чки, пло́ские возвыше́ния над земля́нками, в кото́рых жи́ли рабо́чие, — весь э́тот ерала́ш, вы́крашенный потёмками в оди́н цвет, придава́л земле́ каку́ю-то стра́нную, ди́кую физионо́мию, напомина́вшую о времена́х ха́оса.- Ja byl na línii želéznoj dorógi, kotóraja ješčó tólʹko stróilasʹ. Vysókaja, napolovínu gotóvaja násypʹ, kúči peskú, glíny i ščébnja, baráki, jámy, razbrósannyje kóje-gdé táčki, plóskije vozvyšénija nad zemljánkami, v kotóryx žíli rabóčije, — vesʹ étot jeraláš, výkrašennyj potjómkami v odín cvet, pridavál zemlé kakúju-to stránnuju, díkuju fizionómiju, napominávšuju o vremenáx xáosa.
- I was on a railway line which was still in process of construction. The high, half-finished embankment, the mounds of sand, clay, and rubble, the holes, the wheel-barrows standing here and there, the flat tops of the mud huts in which the workmen lived--all this muddle, coloured to one tint by the darkness, gave the earth a strange, wild aspect that suggested the times of chaos.
- (card games) eralash
1860, Иван Тургенев , “III”, in Накануне; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., On the Eve, 1895:В мо́лодости он ни в каки́е и́гры не игра́л, а тут пристрасти́лся к лото́, а когда́ запрети́ли лото́, к ерала́шу.- V mólodosti on ni v kakíje ígry ne igrál, a tut pristrastílsja k lotó, a kogdá zapretíli lotó, k jeralášu.
- In his youth he had played no games of any kind, but now he developed a passion for loto, and, when loto was prohibited, for whist.
