    • 1840, Михаил Лермонтов, “Предисловие”, in Герой нашего времени; English translation from Martin Parker, transl., A Hero of Our Time, Moscow: Foreign Languages Publishing House, 1951:
      Наша публика похожа на провинциала, который, подслушав разговор двух дипломатов, принадлежащих к враждебным дворам, остался бы уверен, что каждый из них обманывает свое правительство в пользу взаимной, нежнейшей дружбы.
      Naša publika poxoža na provinciala, kotoryj, podslušav razgovor dvux diplomatov, prinadležaščix k vraždebnym dvoram, ostalsja by uveren, što každyj iz nix obmanyvajet svoje pravitelʹstvo v polʹzu vzaimnoj, nežnejšej družby.
      Our public is like the provincial who overhearing a conversation between two diplomats belonging to hostile courts carries off the conviction that each is deceiving his government for the sake of a tender mutual friendship.
  2. (in the plural) rumours, talk

Usage notes

Разгово́р (Razgovór) has a more oral, real-time emphasis than the English equivalents "conversation", "talk" etc. A Russian speaker may use it in isolation while conversing with someone by text to refer specifically to a real-time oral conversation (and not the current text conversation), such as on a call or in real life, although it can also be used to refer to text conversations.
