You toast to the happiness of your daughter and your son-in-law and then don't drink yourself," Koketay reproached the embarrassed Momun.

         ♦ [Глебов] что-то когда-то слышал о том, что Шулепа пропал, докатился до дна... (Трифонов 2). Не [Glebov] remembered hearing some time ago that Shulepa had dropped out of sight and had probably ended up somewhere on the garbage heap (2a).
