    • 1877, Иван Тургенев, “Часть первая. VII”, in Новь; English translation from Constance Garnett, transl., Virgin Soil, 1920:
      Нежданов чуть не вспылил. «Разницу между регалией и папиросой я очень хорошо знаю, но я одолжаться не хочу», — чуть не сорвалось у него с языка… Однако он удержался; но тут же занёс эту вторую дерзость своему врагу в «дебет».
      Neždanov čutʹ ne vspylil. «Raznicu meždu regalijej i papirosoj ja očenʹ xorošo znaju, no ja odolžatʹsja ne xoču», — čutʹ ne sorvalosʹ u nevo s jazyka… Odnako on uderžalsja; no tut že zanjós etu vtoruju derzostʹ svojemu vragu v «debet».
      Nezhdanov almost exploded. 'I know the difference between a regalia and a cigarette well enough, but I don't care to be under obligations,' almost broke from his lips. . . . He restrained himself; but at once scored this second piece of insolence as a 'debt' to pay back against his enemy.
