      Сара́й был так вели́к, что о́ба отделе́ния — жило́е и ско́тское — бы́ли о́чень просто́рны, но, несмотря́ на всю о них забо́тливость, пло́хо держа́ли тепло́.
      Saráj byl tak velík, što óba otdelénija — žilóje i skótskoje — býli óčenʹ prostórny, no, nesmotrjá na vsju o nix zabótlivostʹ, plóxo deržáli tepló.
      The shed was so big that both parts—for people and for cattle—were very roomy, but, despite all the care taken over it, it held warmth poorly.
