    • 1859, Иван Гончаров [Ivan Goncharov], “Часть 1. Глава 10”, in Обломов; English translation from Marian Schwartz, transl., Oblomov, New York: Seven Stories Press, 2008:
      То́лько что храпе́нье Ильи́ Ильича́ дости́гло слу́ха Заха́ра, как он пры́гнул осторо́жно, без шу́ма, с лежа́нки, вы́шел на цы́почках в се́ни, за́пер ба́рина на замо́к и отпра́вился к воро́там.
      Tólʹko što xrapénʹje Ilʹí Ilʹičá dostíglo slúxa Zaxára, kak on prýgnul ostoróžno, bez šúma, s ležánki, výšel na cýpočkax v séni, záper bárina na zamók i otprávilsja k vorótam.
      As soon as Ilya Ilich’s snoring reached Zakhar’s ear, he carefully jumped off his bench, making not a sound, tiptoed out to the porch, locked the master in, and headed for the gate.
  2. goal (in many sports, e.g. soccer, an area into which the players attempt to put an object)
