Examples
“Убогі, пусты і голы пакой беднага краўца. Па пакоі мітусіцца нейкі туман, — ці то ад газьнічкі, ці то ад праса, што цэлы дзень стаіць нагрэтым або падаграецца ў спэцыяльнай пячурцы, забруджанай ад вугальля.”
A poor tailor's room is wretched, empty, and bare. A sort of haze swirls in the room—whether from the small gas lamp or from the iron, which stays heated all day or warms up in a special little stove, grimy from coal.
