Komentarz do Mikwaot 2:5
מִקְוֶה שֶׁיֶּשׁ בּוֹ שָׁלשׁ גֻּמּוֹת שֶׁל מַיִם שְׁאוּבִין שֶׁל לֹג לֹג, אִם יָדוּעַ שֶׁנָּפַל לְתוֹכוֹ אַרְבָּעִים סְאִין מַיִם כְּשֵׁרִין עַד שֶׁלֹּא הִגִּיעוּ לַגֻּמָּא הַשְּׁלִישִׁית, כָּשֵׁר. וְאִם לָאו, פָּסוּל. וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן מַכְשִׁיר, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהוּא כְמִקְוֶה סָמוּךְ לְמִקְוֶה:
Jeśli chodzi o mykwą że ma trzy wyciągnięte bruzdy zawierających wody [wzdłuż swojej pochyłej strony, tak, że każda bruzda powyżej następne], z jednym rejestrze w każdym, jeśli wiadomo, że czterdzieści se'ah ważnego wody spadła w zanim osiągnięta trzecia bruzda jest ważna; a jeśli nie, to jest nieważne. Rabin Szymon uważa, że jest ważny, ponieważ przypomina mykwę obok mykwy .

English Explanation of Mishnah Mikvaot
Introduction
Picture a hole in the ground that is to be used for a mikveh. There is currently no water in the hole, but there are three cavities adjacent to the hole, each of which has in it one log of drawn water. If this water is part of the mikveh, it might invalidate the valid waters. Our mishnah deals with the potential validity of such a mikveh.

Bartenura on Mishnah Mikvaot
שלא הגיעו לגומא שלישית כשר – for it is like for him a complete Mikveh in which three LOG of drawn water fell into it that did not invalidate it, but here also, in a Mikveh/ritual bath of forty Seah prior to the [drawn] water arriving into the third hole/indentation, the Mikveh was not invalidated.

English Explanation of Mishnah Mikvaot
If there were three cavities in a mikveh each holding a log of drawn water, if it is known that forty seahs of valid water fell in before reaching the third cavity, [such a mikveh is] valid; otherwise it is invalid. As long as the forty seahs of valid water get into the mikveh before they are joined by the third log of drawn water, the mikveh is valid. As is always the case, less than three logs of drawn water do not invalidate a mikveh and three logs invalidates the mikveh only before there are already forty seahs of valid water. Since in this case, the forty seahs were in the mikveh before the third log of drawn water, the mikveh is valid.

Bartenura on Mishnah Mikvaot
סמוך למקוה – is like a kosher ritual bath/Mikveh that is adjacent to [water] that is drawn, that this stands/remains in its kosher/fit status and this [other body of water] remains in its invalid status, but here also, the water that is in the holes is like they are considered as standing on their own and not as combined/mixed. But the Halakha is not according to Rabbi Shimon.

English Explanation of Mishnah Mikvaot
Rabbi Shimon declares it valid, since it resembles a mikveh adjoining another mikveh. If there is a mikveh of drawn water that is next to a mikveh of valid water that doesn't have forty seahs, the drawn water does not invalidate the valid water. So too, according to Rabbi Shimon, the cavities of drawn water that are next to the mikveh do not invalidate the other water in the mikveh.
