Grammar differences between English and Russian.

Hello, my dear student! With you Valeria, and we are going to talk for a bit about Russian. You probably guess that nowadays English is the most popular language around the world, for that reason learners for Russian can face to some grammar difficulties. While English grammar includes a wide range of tenses and conditionals, Russian one stands out with linguistic cases, features of masculine, feminine and neutral genders, declensions for nouns, conjugations, etc.

And what is the most noticable differences between Russian and English grammar?

• Few tenses

You can sigh hopefully because you can't study lots of grammar circumstances to figure out what kind of tense is the most suitable in this or that sentence. Three tenses in Russian (past, present and future) are a piece of cake!

• Peculiarities of genders 

But don't think of relax, Russian language prepared for you a real challenge... Do you know that in Russia every word has his own gender (and non-alive things too)? For example, a soup ("sup") in Russian is "he", the name of country Russia is "she", while in English every non-alive thing is just "it". Every learner has to memorize the individual gender for each word, beggining with the word "skat'ert' " (femenine) and finishing by the word of Russian folk sailor dance ("Yablochko") (neutral gender).

• the election of the cases

You can see all 6 cases on the photo. Each of them has two questions, but sometimes you can find the same question. We need cases to have a right grammar form for every noun/pronoun/ adjective/participle and to escape such to escape irregular interaction of a verb with an adjective.
