      Ве́чером, когда́ мы пи́ли чай, куха́рка подала́ к столу́ по́лную таре́лку крыжо́внику. Э́то был не ку́пленный, а свой со́бственный крыжо́вник, со́бранный в пе́рвый раз с тех пор, как бы́ли поса́жены кусты́.

      In the evening, while we were having tea, the cook laid a plateful of gooseberries on the table. They had not been bought, but were his own gooseberries, plucked for the first time since the bushes were planted.
