Veslovsky mispronounces it, and introduces it into a German sentence for fun.)] said Vasenka Veslovsky, making fun of the German. 'J'adore l'allemand.' [I adore German.] said he, turning to Anna with the same smile as before.
— Wünscht man Dochots, so hat man auch Klopots — disse Vasen’ka Veslovskij, prendendo in giro il tedesco. — J’adore l’allemand — disse rivolto ad Anna con lo stesso sorriso.
