I wanted to put her in a muslin frock, the dirty slut and I bought her boots at the Gostiny Dvor, and decked her out like a peacock, a sight for a holiday!
Я ее, поганку, в кисейных платьях водить хотела, в Гостином ботинки купила, как паву нарядила, - душа у праздника!
Dostoevsky, Fyodor / The Insulted and InjuredДостоевский, Фёдор / Униженные и оскорблённые
There were soups that would make your mouth water to think of, and the lovely fishes called pavenders, and venison and peacock and pies, and ices and jellies and fruit and nuts, and all manner of wines and fruit drinks.
Подавали такие супы, что слюнки текут при одном воспоминании о них, и диковинную рыбу лавандину, и оленину, и фазанов, и пироги, и мороженое, и желе, и фрукты, и орехи, и всевозможные вина и лимонады.
Lewis, Clive S. / The Silver ChairЛьюис, Клайв С. / Серебряное кресло
