Bogemsky

A family acquaintance nicknamed "Finik" (Date, the fruit) in the Chekhov household's private slang, who gives Maria Pavlovna geography lessons despite being unqualified to teach it, draws vignettes for three rubles apiece, courts "Yadenka" a little, and pesters everyone with philosophy while dashing off stories for "Detsky Otdykh"; treated with affectionate mockery.
