RUSSIAN GRAMMAR TABLES

     Russian nouns - Russian adjectives - Russian pronouns



 

What is grammar? Grammar is the set rules that tell us how to speak and write in any language correctly. Thanks to learning grammar, we know how to build words and phrases. In other words, it is not enough to know many Russian words, you also need to know how to use them in the right order and with the right endings, so you can create sentences in Russian.

In this section you'll find useful grammar tables which you can look up when reading Russian texts or when doing exercises. We've tried to concentrate the most important grammar points in just a few tables so you don't feel overwhelmed with information. Remember that if you have questions regarding grammar, or Russian language in general, you can ask in our forum.





TABLES of RUSSIAN NOUNS


There 6 cases in the Russian Case System. Each case indicates the grammatical function of a word. If you want to know more about cases and how to use them, you can visit our Russian cases course.
In the tables below you can find all noun endings for each case.

TABLES of RUSSIAN ADJECTIVES

Russian adjectives agree with the noun in gender, number and case. In our course on Russian cases we have created two lessons for each grammatical case: a one lesson for nouns and one lesson for adjectives.

and possessive pronouns (my, your, his, her, our,...)

When should you start learning grammar? When it comes learning a foreign language, the more you learn the better. That's quite logical. But in order to set priorities, we have to know the best moment for each step in the learning process. In general, we can say that right at the beginning you shouldn't worry about grammar too much. Once you know some vocabulary, you can start having a look at cases, verb tenses or the word order in a sentence. In other words, before knowing grammar you should learn vocabulary.

Russian language is not an exception. The case system is important, but knowing it perfectly won't help you much if your vocabulary is limited. If you have just started learning Russian, you can visit other sections in this website (like our Russian courses for beginners) before focusing on grammar.
