a lot of names that end in "in". like liputin from the possessed, whose name means "thing that waves the flag" or "thing that makes things into flags", or rakitin whose name is a bit harder to translate since "rakki" is not a verb, but "rakki" is a deragatory term for dogs so you get something like "mutt-inator"

"rakitka" bcs idk kitka means friction but also because kitkat katkat pitkät matkat

katka is a bug

Both are daughters of deacons, described as timid orphans.

Both ran off with a superficially charming older man when they were teens, although for different reasons, and both ended up "indebted" to an exploitative and depraved older man, the same man in Sofya's case, a different one in Grushenka's.

The memory of Sofya sobbing is juxtaposed with the image of the Mother of God, and Grushenka's heart- to- heart leads Alyosha to an ecstatic embrace of the Earth itself. Their hysterical tears, while judged as women's nonsense, move Alyosha's heart.

It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.
