Examples from texts

Some of them struck me as singularly odd compounds of ardour and flatness; commencing in strong feeling, and concluding in the affected, wordy way that a schoolboy might use to a fancied, incorporeal sweetheart.
Иные из этих писем поразили меня очень странной смесью искреннего пыла и пошлости: начинались они выражением живого чувства, а заканчивались в напыщенном цветистом слоге, каким мог бы писать школьник воображаемой бесплотной возлюбленной.

It was a wordy, disconnected, frantic letter, a drunken letter, in fact.
Это было исступленное, многоречивое и бессвязное письмо, именно "пьяное".
