    • 1849, Фёдор Достоевский [Fyodor Dostoevsky], chapter II, in Неточка Незванова; English translation from Jane Kentish, transl., Netochka Nezvanova, Penguin Books, 1985:
      К крыльцу́ почти́ всегда́ подъезжа́ли бога́тые экипа́жи на прекра́сных, го́рдых лошадя́х, и всё завлека́ло моё́ любопы́тство: и крик, и сумато́ха у подъе́зда, и разноцве́тные фонари́ каре́т, и разря́женные же́нщины, кото́рые приезжа́ли в них.
      K krylʹcú počtí vsegdá podʺjezžáli bogátyje ekipáži na prekrásnyx, górdyx lošadjáx, i vsjo zavlekálo mojó ljubopýtstvo: i krik, i sumatóxa u podʺjézda, i raznocvétnyje fonarí karét, i razrjážennyje žénščiny, kotóryje prijezžáli v nix.
      Sumptuous carriages, drawn by handsome proud horses, were continually driving up to the front door, and everything aroused my curiosity: the clamour and commotion at the entrance, the different-coloured lamps of the carriages and the lavishly dressed women who drove up in them.
