     ♦ Жёлчный агроном после этого письма [Платона Самсоновича], видимо, больше не пытался спорить, зато вежливый зоотехник продолжал подавать голос (Искандер 6). Platon Samsonovich's reply apparently silenced the acrimonious agronomist for good. The polite livestock expert, however, continued to make himself heard (6a).

     ♦ Самое удивительное, что ещё копошатся люди, которые пробуют подать голос сквозь толщу воды, со дна океана. Среди них и я, хотя мне точно известно, какие нужны сверхчеловеческие усилия, чтобы сохранить кучку рукописей (Мандельштам 2). The most astonishing thing is that there are still a few people with just enough life in them to try making their voices heard, but only through an immense volume of water, from the bottom of the ocean, as it were. Among them I count myself-and I know, if anybody does, what superhuman efforts are needed just to preserve a handful of manuscripts (2a).

     ♦ Раз, когда Илья Нетёсов подал голос насчёт того, чтобы поблагодарить Анфису Петровну, [Михаилу] показалось, что Анфиса Петровна кого-то ищет глазами в зале. Может, его искала? (Абрамов 1). When Ilya Netyosov had spoken up about thanking Anfisa Petrovna, [Mikhail] had thought he had seen her searching for someone in the room. For him maybe? (1a).
