    - X на своей шкуре испытал Y X (has) experienced Y firsthand < at first hand>;
    - X went < has gone> through Y himself;
    - X knows <learned etc> what Y feels <is> like.
         ♦ В этот... период жизни с Альбиной дано было Лёве на своей шкуре испытать всю силу и ужас собственной НЕ любви (именно отдельно НЕ, а не вместе: просто нелюбовь - просто эмоция)... (Битов 2). In this period of his life with Albina... Lyova was allowed to experience firsthand the full force and horror of his own nor-love (precisely, not-love: mere unlove is mere emotion)... (2a).

(Ивинская 1). Even the Chechens, Ingush, and Kalmyks, who had experienced at first hand the wisdom of Stalin's policies toward the minorites (they were deported, men, women, and children, to remote areas of the country), joined in the chorus of indignation... (1a).
         ♦ Снова долг заставляет меня свидетельствовать о том, что пока ещё, по-моему, никто не рассказал, а мне довелось испытать на собственной шкуре (Марченко 2). Duty once more compels me to tell what I think has not yet been told by anyone and what I went through myself (2a).
         ♦ "Я ведь тоже за Сталина. Но хотелось бы поменьше славословий - режут ухо". - "Непонятное ещё не есть неправильное, - ответил Марк, - верь в партию, в её мудрость. Начинается строгое время". Саша усмехнулся. "Сегодня на своей шкуре испытал" (Рыбаков 2). "I mean, I'm for Stalin, but I just wish there was a bit less glorification. It grates on me." "Something not understood is not the same as something wrong," Mark replied. "You must believe in the Party and its wisdom. Things are going to get tough." Sasha laughed. "Yes...I learned what that's like today" (2a).
