"What is it, eh?" he (the old man) said hoarsely, pressing the boy to himself. "What is it, eh? What is it?" He seemed unable to say any other word, as though he had lost the power of speech (1a).

«Фроська я, слышите, люди, я - Фроська!» - выкрикивала она с таким остервенелым наслаждением, как будто после долгой немоты вновь обрела вдруг дар речи (Войнович 2). "I'm Froska, people, listen to me, I'm Froska!" she kept shouting with frenzied delight, as if she had just suddenly regained the gift of speech after years of being mute (2a).

Владимир Ипатьич... этот негодяй вывел змей вместо кур...» - «Что такое? - ответил Персиков, и лицо его сделалось бурым... - Вы шутите, Петр Степанович...

В первые минуты он словно лишился дара речи, лишь вращал своими большими глазами и что-то беззвучно шептал (Аксёнов 4). It was Fantasy World, a children's book fair set up on our boulevard....Whale was overwhelmed. He did not know where to run first-the Cat, the Prince, the Swan. For a moment or so he stood as if struck dumb: he just rolled his big eyes and whispered soundlessly (4a).

Whence came this gift of gab and the pace of his speech? (3b)....Sobakevich had hit the peak of his eloquence, as they say, and his pace and power of expression were truly surprising (3c).
