    • 1887, Антон Чехов , Перекати-поле, Санкт-Петербург: Новое время; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., Uprooted, 1919:
      Что́бы внуши́ть к себе́ дове́рие и показа́ть, что я во́все не сержу́сь, я взял предло́женный им кусо́чек. Колбаса́ действи́тельно была́ ужа́сная; что́бы сла́дить с ней, ну́жно бы́ло име́ть зу́бы хоро́шей цепно́й соба́ки.
      Štóby vnušítʹ k sebé dovérije i pokazátʹ, što ja vóvse ne seržúsʹ, ja vzjal predlóžennyj im kusóček. Kolbasá dejstvítelʹno bylá užásnaja; štóby sláditʹ s nej, núžno býlo imétʹ zúby xoróšej cepnój sobáki.
      To inspire confidence and to show that I was not ill-humoured, I took some of the proffered sausage. It certainly was horrible; one needed the teeth of a good house-dog to deal with it.
