- 1862, Иван Тургенев [Ivan Turgenev], “Глава 26”, in Отцы и дети; English translation from Richard Hare, transl., Fathers and Sons, 1947:
- — Проща́й, брат! — сказа́л он Арка́дию, уже́ взобра́вшись на теле́гу, и, указа́в на па́ру га́лок, сиде́вших ря́дышком на кры́ше коню́шни, приба́вил: — Вот тебе́! изуча́й!
— Э́то что зна́чит? — спроси́л Арка́дий.
— Как? Ра́зве ты так плох в есте́ственной исто́рии и́ли забы́л, что га́лка са́мая почте́нная, семе́йная пти́ца? Тебе́ приме́р!.. Проща́йте, синьо́р!- — Proščáj, brat! — skazál on Arkádiju, užé vzobrávšisʹ na telégu, i, ukazáv na páru gálok, sidévšix rjádyškom na krýše konjúšni, pribávil: — Vot tebé! izučáj!
— Éto što znáčit? — sprosíl Arkádij.
— Kak? Rázve ty tak plox v jestéstvennoj istórii íli zabýl, što gálka sámaja počténnaja, seméjnaja ptíca? Tebé primér!.. Proščájte, sinʹór! - "Farewell, brother," he called out to Arkady, as he was already climbing into the cart, and pointing to a pair of jackdaws, sitting side by side on the roof of the stables, he added, "There you are! Learn from the example."
"What does that mean?" asked Arkady.
"What? Are you so weak in natural history or have you forgotten that the jackdaw is a most respectable family bird! An example to you . . . ! Good-by."
- — Proščáj, brat! — skazál on Arkádiju, užé vzobrávšisʹ na telégu, i, ukazáv na páru gálok, sidévšix rjádyškom na krýše konjúšni, pribávil: — Vot tebé! izučáj!
