person
Mozgovoy
also: Мозговой
A sailor addressed only by surname, the silent audience Revunov-Karaulov singles out for his long, jargon-dense reminiscences of naval commands and maneuvers, in Chekhov's "The Wedding" (1889).
Reading notes
- The Wedding §192 Just so.
"Точно так" is standard Russian military/naval deferential response to a superior ("Just so," "Exactly right") -- Mozgovoy's only line in the play, a single clipped acknowledgment that casts him as the silent, correctly deferential audience Revunov-Karaulov needs for his long reminiscences.
