That is not true! There is no such a verb in russian language at all! (I am a native speaker). — This unsigned comment was added by 217.195.78.214 (talk).

Although I can’t read Russian, Google Books appears to disagree. --Romanophile (talk) 12:50, 28 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
It is dated, colloquial, nonstandard, and proscribed, but it exists. It was in widespread use during the 1920s. Even though it is a proscribed and nonstandard form, we keep it because it appears in Russian literature. We do not recommend that you use it, but if you come across it, we will tell you what it means. —Stephen (Talk) 13:14, 28 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
