Dear Gabriella and all,

    There are a couple references on the runet to the effect that this riff
from Shklovsky was recalled by Tynyanov and reproduced in Lidia Ginzburg's
vospominaniia. I searched for "Viktor Shklovskii" avtomobil' at google.ru.
>From the translation you quoted, I think you'd expect the Russian idiom
"chto k chemu" to figure in the original text ("comprehends 'what is for
what'"), but adding "chto k chemu" didn't lead to this full quotation (it
may not be posted anywhere in full).

    Best,

    Tim Sergay
