1866, Фёдор Достоевский , “Глава X”, in Игрок; English translation from Charles James Hogarth, transl., The Gambler, 1917:— Не беспоко́йтесь, тётушка, — отвеча́л генера́л с не́которым высокоме́рно-фамилья́рным отте́нком, — я сам уме́ю вести́ мои́ дела́. К тому́ же Алексе́й Ива́нович не совсе́м вам ве́рно переда́л.- — Ne bespokójtesʹ, tjótuška, — otvečál generál s nékotorym vysokomérno-familʹjárnym otténkom, — ja sam uméju vestí moí delá. K tomú že Alekséj Ivánovič ne sovsém vam vérno peredál.
- "Do not alarm yourself, my dear mother," the General replied with a lofty air—an air in which there was also a tinge of familiarity. "I am quite capable of managing my own affairs. Moreover, Alexis Ivanovitch has not given you a true account of the matter."
