    • 1884, Антон Чехов [Anton Chekhov], “Глава I”, in Драма на охоте; English translation from Ronald Wilks, transl., The Shooting Party, London: Penguin Books, 2004:
      В письме́ отсу́тствовало местоиме́ние «кото́рый» и стара́тельно обойдены́ дееприча́стия — то и друго́е ре́дко удаё́тся гра́фу в оди́н присе́ст.
      V pisʹmé otsútstvovalo mestoiménije «kotóryj» i starátelʹno obojdený dejepričástija — to i drugóje rédko udajótsja gráfu v odín prisést.
      Pronouns such as ‘which’ were absent from the letter and all gerunds were sedulously avoided – the Count rarely managed to employ both at one sitting.
