Examples from texts

Lyubka put her elbow on the table; her plait fell across her shoulder -- a long chestnut plait tied with red ribbon at the end -- and it almost touched the floor.
Любка облокотилась на стол; коса ее перекинулась через плечо - длинная коса, рыжая, перевязанная на конце красной ленточкой, - и едва не коснулась пола.

'Well, there's a thing!' said Marya Dmitrievna, rolling down her sleeves and feeling for the pins in her thick plait of hair.
- Вот так оказия, - сказала Марья Дмитриевна, опустив рукава и ощупывая рукой шпильки в своей густой косе.

And I thought in my dream I would pick them; Vassya had promised to come, so I'd pick myself a wreath first; I'd still time to plait it.
И думаю я: нарву я этих васильков; Вася прийти обещался – так вот я себе венок сперва совью; жать-то я еще успею.

'Ah, I beg your pardon!' she said with a smile half-embarrassed, half-ironical, instantly taking hold of one end of a plait of her hair and fastening on Sanin her large, grey, clear eyes.
- Ах, извините! - проговорила она с полусмущенной, полунасмешливой улыбкой, мгновенно прихватив рукою конец одной косы и вперив на Санина свои большие серые светлые глаза.

So trenchant was the Templar's weapon, that it shore asunder, as it had been a willow twig, the tough and plaited handle of the mace, which the ill-fated Saxon reared to parry the blow, and, descending on his head, levelled him with the earth.
Напрасно Ательстан попытался парировать удар своей окованной железом палицей. Острый меч храмовника разрубил ее, как тростинку, и обрушился на голову злополучного сакса, который замертво упал на землю.

On a burka spread out on the floor sat the one-eyed, red-haired Gamzalo, in a tattered greasy beshmet, plaiting a bridle.
На полу на бурке, у окна, сидел кривой рыжий Гамзало, в оборванном, засаленном бешмете, и вязал уздечку.

Tchertophanov himself--what more can we say?--with his own hands plaited his favourite's forelocks and mane, and washed his tail with beer, and even, more than once, rubbed his hoofs with polish.
Чертопханов – чего больше? – сам, собственноручно, и челку заплетал своему любимцу, и гриву и хвост мыл пивом, и даже копыта не раз мазью смазывал…

Thousands of universes, twisting together like a rope being plaited from threads ...

Her thin, light hair, streaked with grey, thickly smeared with grease, was plaited in a rat's tail and fastened by a broken horn comb which stood out on the nape of her neck.
Светлые с проседью, жиденькие волосы ее, по обыкновению жирно смазанные маслом, были заплетены в крысиную косичку и подобраны под осколок роговой гребенки, торчавшей на ее затылке.

And she went on laughing, her head thrown back, her bosom swelling with mirth, delighted with her flowers, wild flowers which she had plaited into her fair hair, fastened to her neck, her bodice, and her bare slender golden arms.
Продолжая смеяться, она запрокинула голову; грудь ее так и вздымалась от радости. Она радовалась цветам, буйным цветам, которые вплела в свои белокурые косы, повесила на шею, прикрепила к корсажу, несла в своих позолоченных солнцем худеньких руках.

'I might come here sometimes, perhaps, to see you,' said Mary, plaiting the table-cloth in assumed coyness, 'if you would do me a favour.'
— Пожалуй, я бы изредка забегала сюда — повидаться с вами, — сказала Мэри, с притворным смущением теребя скатерть, — если вы мне окажете одну услугу.
