So, this is the sentence I have come across:

でも、マルーシャは、少しもいやがらずに働きました。

I understand that Marusha worked without hesitating. I would like, however, to
understand the grammar behind it. I have looked for the meaning of いやがらずに
without success. Can you help me translate it?

Thank you very much.

question
translation
what is the meaning of いやがらずに?
嫌がらずに is not listed in dictionaries because it's a combination of several
words including an inflected verb.

  * 嫌がる: a common godan verb, "to show hatred/discontent", "to hate"
  * 嫌がらず: "not to hate", a literary negative-form of 嫌がる.
  * ず + に: "without -ing", see the linked question.

So 嫌がらずに just means "without hating" (or more verbosely, "without showing any
sign of discontent").
