Rules for writing adverbs. Under what conditions are adverbs written separately? Continuous, separate and hyphenated writing of adverbs: rule

Possible difficulties

Good advice

In some cases, words with a prefix are written with a hyphen, and in others - together.

Swim like a dog.

Take more.

The prefix po is not the only condition for writing an adverb with a hyphen. It is necessary that the adverb ends in -mu (him), -ki, -ii. If these conditions are absent in an adverb, it is usually written together.

In Georgian (in…ki).

In a bearish way (in a…yi way).

Little by little (we write together, there are no conditions for a hyphen).

Words with po and the final part -oom (-em) are written with a hyphen in some cases, and separately in others.

I did it the old way.

I followed the old trail.

Do not confuse adverbs in -oo (-mu) and adjectives.

Did (how?) the old way (adverb).

I walked along (what?) old (adjective) trail (here the preposition by refers to the noun: along the trail).

You can make a mistake in spelling words with the prefix ko-, for example:

some...where, some...at...who.

Do not confuse adverbs with some and pronouns with some. Pronouns are written according to a special rule (see Continuous, separate and hyphenated writing of indefinite and negative pronouns).

It is difficult to understand when words are written together and when separately:

in...breadth, in...depth, in...distance, in...up, in...down, on...up, along...bottom, along...top, on...side, in...front, on...back, on...century, in... century, etc.

Distinguish between adverbs with the meaning of time or space and the nouns from which these adverbs are derived. Please note that the presence of a dependent word indicates that we have a noun that must be written separately with the preposition.

Went upstairs (There is no dependent word, it is an adverb, written together).

Climbed to the top of the hill (There is a dependent word for hill, written separately).

Remember: the words to the side, to the side, in depth, in depth, in width, in height, in length are always written separately.

Sometimes it is difficult to determine whether a given word is a noun or has already become a derived preposition:

within... a day,

during...discussion,

in the flow...of the river.

This problem usually arises in relation to the following prepositions: during, in continuation, due to, despite.

If the forms during, in continuation have a temporary meaning, they are considered prepositions, with E written at the end.

If these forms do not have a temporal meaning, they are considered nouns, and the corresponding case ending is written at the end.

The photographs will be developed during the day. But: In the current of this river, fast and powerful, it is not easy to hold the boat.

If the due form has the meaning of cause, it is considered a preposition and is written together. If this form has a different meaning, it is considered a noun and is written separately with the appropriate case ending.

Due to an administrator error, failures in pipeline management occurred. But: An error crept into the investigation into the Maleev case.

If the form despite has the meaning of concession (close in meaning to the conjunction although), it is considered a preposition and despite is written together. If a similar form is used in the sense of “without looking,” it is considered a gerund and is written separately.

Despite the squalid surroundings, the service at the hotel was tolerable. But: Despite the faces of his neighbors, he continued to chew the sandwich.

A rule from reference materials is sometimes difficult to apply in practice.

Indeed, the rule about distinguishing between conjunctions and homonymous forms covers only the most typical cases. We hope, however, that the practice tests will be enough to master this topic.

You can make a mistake in spelling words with the stem-pol-, for example:

half...seven in the morning;

half...a metropolitan loaf.

In cases of half past seven in the morning; at half past nine in the evening the base half is written together with the word. Word half past ten written with a hyphen.

Combinations in which there is an adjective between the base half and the second part of a compound word are written separately.

floor of the capital's loaf;

half a bay leaf.

There is a problem in distinguishing between complex adjectives and adverb+adjective phrases, for example:

much...promising (project) and deadly...dangerous (risk).

In the first case, we have a complex adjective, the first part of which is formed from an adverb and which denotes an integral concept (written together). In the second case - a phrase that has not merged into a complex word (written separately). Unfortunately, there is no general spelling rule that works effectively in each specific case to solve this problem. However, it can be noted that adverbs that do not merge with an adjective usually answer the questions how? how? to what extent? More often than others, the following words play this role:

Vital.

Originally Russian.

Exactly the opposite.

It is difficult to remember the spelling of complex adjectives that are traditionally written with a hyphen.

Consult reference materials. Remember the spelling of adjectives:

World...historical,

world…famous;

folk...democratic, folk...liberation, folk...poetic.

Also watch the video if something is not clear, you need to repeat the material, or the required rule is not found.

Hyphen in adverbs

Most adverbs in the Russian language are written together. In some cases, separate spelling is retained, see: Integrated and separate spelling of adverbs and adverbial expressions. There is a special group of adverbs that are written with a hyphen.

Knew (speak) English; said (in) a simple way; put it on (topsy-turvy) inside out.

Adverbs are written with a hyphen under the following conditions:

1) according to - ... him / ... him,

In my opinion;

in Russian;

like a wolf.

But: little by little(no condition);

in my opinion(no adverb here).

2) in - ... s / ... them,

Firstly;

thirdly.

3) something - ...,

... - someday;

Somewhere;

somehow;

ever;

somewhere.

4) an adverb consists of two parts that completely or partially repeat each other.

Barely;

little by little.

Knew English - condition 1 applies (in...CI).

He simply said that there are no conditions for writing with a hyphen; it is written together, like most adverbs.

Put it on topsy-turvy - condition 4 applies (the adverb consists of two parts that partially repeat each other).

Integrated and separate writing of adverbs and adverbial expressions

Adverbs were formed in the language later than other independent parts of speech, so they usually come from nouns, adjectives, numerals, and pronouns.

To find out whether an adverb will be written together, it is necessary to determine from which part of speech the given adverb is formed.

Looks (into) the distance; walked (one by one) alone; worried (in) vain; (c) finally exhausted.

If an adverb is not formed from a noun, then it is written together.

If an adverb is formed from a noun, then it is written together in the following cases:

Close(from adjective).

In two(from the numeral).

From outside(from an adverb).

Please note some exceptions:

one, two, three;

openly, in general;

to the world, to retreat.

1) if the adverb is formed from an obsolete word:

to pieces (no noun " rattles»);

too much (no noun) "too much");

after (no noun) "catch up");

2) if this is an adverb of place and time:

3) if an adverb is formed from a combination of a noun with a preposition and a case question cannot be posed to the former noun:

smoke a cigarette (you can’t ask: smoke with what?);

saddle-coat (you can’t ask: what’s a cloak?)

Looks into the distance - adverb of place, written together.

Walked alone - from an obsolete noun loner(meaning " alone, unaccompanied"), is written together.

Worried in vain - an adverb formed from an adjective empty, written together.

Completely exhausted - this is an adverb because it is impossible to ask a case question (you cannot say: exhausted into what?), written together.

In modern Russian there are many adverbs and adverbial expressions that are written together or separately according to tradition. Their spelling should be memorized.

Spelling prepositions

Many prepositions in Russian are derivatives. The spelling of some of them should be memorized.

Lemonade (in) place of tea; crawled out (from) under the fence; won, (despite) fatigue.

1. The prepositions because of, from under, on-over, by-for are written with a hyphen.

He looked around the corner.

He took it out from under the pillow.

2. Derivative prepositions, which include a non-derivative preposition and a noun, are usually written in two words:

during, in continuation, in the form of, in connection with, to the extent of, during, for the reason of, for the purposes of, on the part of etc.

Absent due to illness.

3.The following prepositions are written together:

in view of (in the meaning of “for a reason”), like (in the meaning of “like”), instead of, as a result of, like, about (in the meaning of “about”), despite (in spite of)

Absent due to illness;

something like an arch;

felt boots instead of boots;

made a mistake due to inattention;

something like a winter coat;

talk about work;

Made it on time, despite the traffic jams.

4. For the prepositions during, in continuation, in contrast, as a result, E is written at the end. Combinations with the first two prepositions always have the meaning of time and answer the question How long?

I waited for (continued) a week.

The combination with the preposition due has a causal meaning.

Due to insufficient funding, the facility was closed.

Lemonade instead of tea.

Climbed out from under the fence.

I won, despite being tired.

Spelling conjunctions

Many conjunctions in the Russian language are derivatives, i.e. they came from other parts of speech, including combinations:

pronoun + particle (that + would = to), preposition + pronoun (from + what = why).

In this case, conjunctions are usually written together, and pronouns with particles and prepositions are written separately. The problem of choosing a spelling arises.

The same word, but it would be wrong to say it. I don't know what he could do for her. And you also go into the house. In order to fall asleep, he took sleeping pills.

It is necessary to find out what part of speech they are what (would) in the analyzed sentence. The following table will help you do this.

If you have a union in front of you,

it can be replaced by another conjunction of similar meaning.

If you have a pronoun + particle in front of you, then the particle can be moved to another place or not used.

ALSO can be replaced by ALSO, AND.

He ALSO went there. (We can replace: he also went there; and he went there.)

The SAME can be replaced with THAT; THE SAME; THE SAME AS I.

He did the SAME thing as me. (Can be replaced: he did what I did.)

THE SAME proof was used in another work. (Can be replaced: this proof was used in another work.)

ALSO can be replaced by ALSO, AND.

I was surprised, so was he. (You can replace: I was surprised, so was he; I was surprised, and he was surprised.)

ALSO can be replaced with SO; EXACTLY THE SAME; AS WELL AS.

I was JUST as surprised as you. (You can replace: I was surprised just like you; I was surprised just like you.)

SO that can be replaced with IN ORDER THAT.

FOR something to work out, you need to try.(You can replace: In order for something to work out, you need to try.)

WHAT can be replaced with WHAT.

What else could you do today?(You can replace: what else to do today?)

If the pronoun in front of you is an adverb, then it can be replaced with adverbs of similar meaning.

If you have a preposition + pronoun in front of you, then the corresponding adjectives and nouns can be used instead of the pronoun.

WHY can be replaced with WHY.

WHY are you sad? (Can be replaced: why are you sad?)

WHAT does the decision depend on? (Can be replaced: on what circumstances does the decision depend?)

WHY can be replaced by WHY.

WHY is it so hot? (Can be replaced: why is it so hot?)

WHY did they go down to the sea? (Can be replaced: they went down the stairs to the sea.)

BECAUSE can be replaced by THEREFORE.

I was late BECAUSE I was busy (Can be replaced: I was late because I was busy.)

BECAUSE can be replaced with BECAUSE.

He came back BECAUSE he forgot the key. (Can be replaced: he returned because he forgot the key.)

BECAUSE.

People were running along THAT bank. (Can be replaced: people were running along the far bank.)

FROM THAT.

A man walked away from THAT tree. (Can be replaced: a man walked away from a tall tree.)

THEREFORE can be replaced by BECAUSE.

I forgot the key SO I couldn't open the lock. (You can replace it: I forgot the key, so I couldn’t open the lock.)

THAT'S WHY.

A trolleybus will pass over THIS bridge. (Can be replaced: a trolleybus will travel across the new bridge.)

WHY can be replaced with WHY.

WHY did you stay? (Can be replaced: why did you stay?)

FOR WHAT.

WHAT was he hiding in the forest? (Can be replaced: he was hiding behind a tree in the forest.)

THEN can be replaced with THEN.

I left, THEN came back. (Can be replaced: I left, then returned.)

THEN.

BEHIND THAT bend the forest began. (Can be replaced: around the next turn the forest began).

If you have a union in front of you, then it

can be replaced by conjunctions that are similar in meaning.

If you have a preposition + pronoun in front of you, then instead of the pronoun, corresponding adjectives can be used with the preposition.

THEN can be replaced with BUT.

The story is short, BUT interesting. (Can be replaced: the story is short but interesting.)

FOR THAT.

He hid BEHIND THAT tree. (Can be replaced: he hid behind a large tree.)

Moreover, AND can be replaced with AT THIS.

He is a musician, AND talented at that. y. (You can replace it: he is a musician, and a talented one at that.)

They persuaded me, AND very diligently. (You can replace: they persuaded me, and very diligently.)

There is a swimming pool at that house.(Can be replaced: an expensive house has a swimming pool.)

It is necessary to distinguish between the spelling of the introductory word So and its homonymous form.

The SAME word, but it would be wrong to say it, can be replaced with the SAME word. This is a pronoun with a particle, it is written separately.

I don’t know WHAT he could do for her - it can be replaced with WHAT. This is a pronoun with a particle, it is written separately.

And you ALSO go into the house - you can replace it with ALSO. This is a union, it is written together.

TO fall asleep, he took sleeping pills - can be replaced with IN ORDER. This is a union, it is written together.

Spelling compound nouns

Compound nouns are those nouns that include several stems: airplane, freeze frame, sofa bed, airport terminal, etc.

To formulate complex words, hyphens and continuous spellings are used.

Find out what letter the noun that comes after the stem POL- begins with.

Spelling compound adjectives

Spelling adjectives formed from compound nouns

(Southeastern; (Vice) Prime Minister.

Compound adjectives formed from compound nouns retain the merged or hyphenated spellings that these nouns had, see: Spelling of compound nouns.

If adjectives are formed from hyphenated nouns, they are also written with a hyphen:

northeastern(derived from northeast);

non-commissioned officer (derived from non-commissioned officer).

If adjectives are formed from nouns with a continuous spelling, they are also written together:

oil field (derived from oil field);

Belgorod (derived from Belgorod).

Southeast - derived from the word southeast, written with a hyphen.

Deputy Prime Minister - derived from the word Deputy Prime Minister, written with a hyphen.

Spelling of adjectives whose first part ends in O (E)

(Giddy) dizzy; (socio)political.

Hyphenated

It is written smoothly

An adjective is written with a hyphen if it denotes a shade of color or taste:

dark blue;

red-brown;

bitter-salty.

An adjective is written together if it is formed from a subordinating phrase (with a main and dependent word):

dark-browed (dark eyebrows);

iron foundry (cast iron);

house-building (to build houses).

Exceptions:

Geographical names are written with a hyphen, even if they are formed from a subordinating phrase.

An adjective can be written together if its first part is formed from an adverb, and the complex word has come to mean a single, integral concept (for example, it has become a term or a stable expression in book language):

evergreen;

instant coffee;

highly educated person.

Pay attention!

There is a problem of distinguishing between cases of the type: promising (project) and deadly (risk). In the first case, we have a complex adjective, the first part of which is formed from an adverb and which denotes an integral concept (written together). In the second case - a phrase that has not merged into a complex word (written separately). Unfortunately, there is no general spelling rule that works effectively in each specific case to solve this problem. However, it can be noted that adverbs that do not merge with an adjective usually answer the questions how? how? to what extent? More often than others, the following words play this role:

absolutely, vitally, truly, primordially, especially, authentically, directly, sharply, mortally, strictly.

Vital.

Originally Russian.

Exactly the opposite.

If you are in doubt about the spelling, consult a spelling dictionary.

You should remember the spelling of the following words and phrases:

world-historical, world famous;

people's democratic, people's liberation, people's poetic.

Dizzy - formed from the subordinating phrase dizzy, written together.

Socio-political - derived from the coordinating combination social and political, written with a hyphen.

RULE 4:

Almost all spelling norms associated with adverbs are explained by data from the historical grammar of the Russian language. The combined and separate spelling of adverbs formed from nouns may have a large number of exceptions.

RULE 5:

Adverbs with prefixes in-, for-, on-, formed from short adjectives, have at the end(left, alive, completely);

Adverbs with prefixes to-, from-, from- have at the end of a(dry, long ago, again).

RULE 6:

Adverbs are written with a hyphen :

With the prefix po-, formed from full adjectives and pronouns , ending with-mu, -him, -ski, -i(in a different way, in a wolf way, in a friendly way).

With attachment in-(in-), formed from ordinal numbers

(firstly, thirdly);

- indefinites with suffixes – this, -either, -something, with attachment some, with particle – after all(somewhere, someone, etc.);

- formed by repeating words (slightly).

RULE 7:

Adverbs formed from numerals, adjectives, pronouns written together:(forever, the day after tomorrow, for the first time, manually).

Adverbs that go back to nouns have combined and separate spellings. If the original words are not used in the language, adverbs written together : to pieces, locked up, at random.

Together adverbs are also written if they are applied to the original noun you can't ask a case question and choose a definition: subsequently, together, around, married, for example, right through, alone.

A group of adverbs with prefixes is written together o-, from-, to-, from (-is): partly, from above, from within.

Always together adverbs formed from nouns are written: top, bottom, height, distance, width, depth, beginning. For example: below, at the beginning, deep, from afar etc .

Adverbial combinations with prepositions without, before, with, for, under are written separately : without knowledge, on demand, beyond recognition, with acceleration, abroad, in the morning.

If a preposition ends in a consonant and a noun begins with a vowel, adverbs are written separately: in exchange, openly, alone, point blank.

RULE 8:

Adverbs from, why, because why, why, then, therefore and conjunction but written in one word.

Combinations (prepositions with pronouns): from what, from what by that, by what, for what, after that, according to this written in two words, differ in meaning based on the pronoun.

REMEMBER: The conjunction ITAK (meaning “therefore”) is written in one word. The combination AND SO (conjunction with an adverb) - in two words.

Adverb

Adverb - part of speech, unchangeable, denoting a sign of an action, a sign of a sign. In school teaching, it is customary to say that the words of this class answer the questions “how?”, “where?”, “where?”, “when?”, “why?”, “for what purpose?”, “to what extent? » and most often refer to verbs and denote a sign of action.

SPELLING OF ADVERBS

Letters o and e at the end of adverbs after sibilants.

At the end of adverbs after sibilants it is written under stress o, without accent – ​​e: good, fresh, hot, But: melodiously, threateningly.

Letters nn in adverbs.

In adverbs starting with - o and - e, formed from adjectives based on NN (including from adjectives that were formed from passive participles with the suffix - nn -), written nn: artificial - artificial nn, excited nn - excited nn.

Letters a and o at the end of adverbs.

In adverbs that come from indirect cases of nouns or adjectives, the endings of these cases are preserved, for example:secretly, at first, at first, in vain.

Therefore, at the end of adverbs that come from the genitive singular neuter case of short adjectives with prepositions from, from, to, written a: right, long ago, dry; and at the end of adverbs that come from the accusative case of the singular neuter with prepositions in, on, for, written about;

right o, left o, again o.

Exceptions: from a young age, foolishly, blindly(these adverbs come from the genitive case with the ending- y).

Letter ь after hissing adverbs at the end.

After the hissing adverbs at the end it is written b: gallop, backhand, wide open; except for the words:I can’t bear to get married.

Particles are not and neither in pronominal adverbs.

1. Particles are not or neither in negative pronominal adverbs they are prefixes and are written together; and under the accent it is written no, no accent – ​​neither: nowhere, nowhere, no time, nowhere; nowhere, nowhere, never, nowhere, no way, and also there is no need (“aimlessly”), not at all (“not to any extent”), not at all (“very easy”), not at all, not at all (meaning “to no extent”).

2. Together with not indefinite pronominal adverbs are written: once (“once upon a time”) and several (“partly”).

The difference between adverbs with prefixes and other parts of speech with prepositions.

Adverbs with prefixes must be distinguished from similar nouns, adjectives and pronouns with prepositions.

a) Adjectives and adjective pronouns agree with nouns; adverbs usually adjoin verbs and do not change, for example: We entered an empty room (in - preposition, refers to a noun room; empty - adjective, agreed with the word room; to which room? –to empty). No need to waste charges wasted (wasted - adverb of manner, adjoins the verbspend). The train is coming over the new bridge (by – preposition, refers to the word bridge, new adjective, agrees with the wordbridge). We have healed in a new way (in a new way – adverb, adjoins the verb healed).

b) Nouns can have dependent words, but adverbs generally cannot.

Examples. In the distance transparent chenille mountains (in the distance -transparent). A star flashes in the distance (in the distance - adverb used to mean “far, far away”)I arrived in the village at the beginning summer (at the beginning -dependent noun summer). In the beginning it was difficult for me in the new place, and then I got used to it (in the beginning -adverb used to mean “first”).

Continuous, hyphenated and separate spelling of adverbs depends on how they were formed.
CONCLUSION adverbs are written in six cases:
1. If the adverb was formed relatively long ago and it contains nominal forms that are not currently used in the literary language, for example: VODOVOL, IN SHARDS, LOCKED UP, VOSVOYASI, BUTT, BY SPIDGE, SILENTLY, SILENTLY, HASHY, ALERT, ON AN EASTSHCHAC, NEVERPAD, EARTH , SPOZARANKU, etc. In other words, the adverb DREBEZGI is written together, since there is no form of DREBEZGI in the modern literary language.
2. If an adverb is formed by combining a prefix with another adverb, for example: VERY, FOR FREE, FOREVER, THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW, EVERYWHERE, IN ADVANCE, etc.

3. If an adverb was formed by combining a preposition with an adjective. Both full and short forms can participate in the formation of adverbs. Full adjectives answer the questions WHAT?, WHAT?, WHAT?, WHAT?, in the nominative case. For example, the adverb from the phrase MADE BY MANUAL was formed by merging the preposition B with the adjective MANUAL (in the nominative case - MANUAL). In a similar way, the adverbs TIGHT, SCATTERED, DARK, CLEAR, etc. appeared. Short adjectives answer in the nominative case the questions WHAT?, WHAT?, WHAT? and WHAT ARE THERE? and have truncated endings compared to full adjectives, compare: HOT (answers the question WHAT? - this is the full form) and HOT-A ​​(answers the question WHAT? - this is the short form). For example, an adverb that was created by merging the preposition C and the short adjective HOT must be written together. In a similar way, the adverbs LEFT, DRY, DEAD, FROM A FAR, QUICKLY, LITTLE, LOWLY, SLOWLY were formed.
4. If an adverb was formed by combining a preposition with a noun, but between the preposition and the noun from which the adverb was formed, a defining adjective, pronoun, numeral cannot be inserted without changing the meaning, or if a case question cannot be posed to the noun: IN ADDITION, FORD, FLYING IN, AGAIN, TRULY, AROUND, FOLLOWING, INTERRUPTING, INTERBENDING, FULL, FIT (SUIT), ON TIME (ARRIVE), SIDEWAY (PUT ON A HAT), TOWARD, FLYING OUT, HEADWAY (BREAK), IN SPITE, BY MEMORY (LEARN), Despite the possibility of placing a defining word in front of some of them; they are written together, for example: UP, UP, UP, UP, UP, UP; DOWN, BELOW, BOTTOM, BOTTOM, BOTTOM; FORWARD, FORWARD; BACK; UP; IN THE DISTANCE, IN THE DISTANCE, IN THE DISTANCE; FOREVER, FOREVER, FOREVER, FOREVER, FOREVER; FIRST, FIRST.
5. If an adverb was formed by combining a preposition with a pronoun, for example: BECAUSE, THEN, THEREFORE, THEREFORE, AT ALL, Draw. AT ALL.
6. If the adverb was formed by combining the preposition B or NA with collective numerals. Numerals in Russian are divided into three groups: quantitative (for example, TWO, FIVE, TEN), ordinal (SECOND, FIFTH, TEN) and collective (TWO, FIVE, TEN). In accordance with the rule, adverbs formed only from the numerals of the last group are written together, for example: DOUBLE, TWO, SIX. The spelling of adverbs formed from numerals of other types will be discussed below.
The adverb is written HYPHENED in four cases.
1) adverbs with a prefix By; ending with-ski, -tski, -i, -mu, -him: in Russian, in Cossack, in wolf, in a new way, in our way, as before, in an empty way, apparently.

Note. Prefix By- written together: a) in adverbs that come from short adjectives:equally, simply, slowly;b) in adverbs in comparative degree:better, worse, more beautiful;c) in pronominal adverbs: why, because

2) adverbs formed from ordinal numbers with a preposition V, used as introductory words:firstly, secondly. thirdly, seventhly etc.

Note: An adverb is written with a dashto the mountain: Coal was supplied to the mountain evenly, batch by batch (Igishsv.):

3) adverbs formed: a) repetition of the same word:a little, barely;b) repeating the same root with different prefixes, suffixes and endings:little by little, a long time ago, dark and dark, day after day;c) a combination of two synonyms:unexpectedly, unexpectedly, I'll say hello etc.;

4) indefinite pronominal adverbs formed by means of particles-that, -either, -anything, something-: somewhere, sometime, somewhere, somehow etc.

Among the adverbial combinations written separately , four groups can be distinguished.
1. The first group includes combinations of nouns with various prepositions, in which the noun has retained at least some case forms. Consider the following examples: UNDER THE ARMPITS, UNDER THE ARMPITS, UNDER THE ARMMIT, UNDER THE ARMMIT, FROM UNDER THE ARMMITS;.
An adverb is an unchangeable part of speech: it is not inflected or conjugated. But if a word has several case forms, then it is not an adverb and must be written separately with the preposition.
2. The second group of adverbial combinations, which are written separately, consists of a preposition ending with a consonant and a noun beginning with a vowel. For example: IN AN HUG, ALONE, IN REVENGE, AT POINT POINT, AT PLEASE, WITHOUT RESISTANCE, WITHOUT TIRED and others.
3. The third group consists of adverbial combinations, consisting of two repeated nouns, sometimes with a preposition between them. For example: HONOR WITH HONOR, ODD WITH ERROR, SIDE BY SIDE, EYE TO EYE, DOOR TO DOOR.
4. The fourth group is a less clearly defined set of combinations of nouns with prepositions that are used in an adverbial meaning or are simply similar to adverbs because they answer the question HOW?. For example: WITHOUT KNOWING, WITHOUT A REQUEST, WITHOUT LOOKING BACK, WITHOUT PUSHING, WITHOUT TIRED, IN THE INSOLE, TO THE DEATH, TO DEATH, ON THE RUN, IN VIEW, AT THE EYE, ON THE RUN, ON THE WALK and others. The spelling of such words must be memorized, and if in doubt, seek help from a spelling dictionary.
It is necessary to remember the exception words that are written differently than indicated in the rule: IN THE OPEN, ON THE MOUNTAIN, IN LATIN, EXACTLY.

Vowels A And O at the end of adverbs

Adverbs with prefixes in-, for-, on-, have a letter at the end O, and adverbs of the same origin with prefixes to-, from-, from- have a letter at the end A. For example: to the right, before dark, firmly; satiated, occasionally, again.

Such adverbs are formed from adjectives in a prefix-suffix way, and they must be distinguished from adverbs that have the same prefixes, but formed in a suffix way: orally O(oral), verbatim O(verbatim), correct O(serviceable).

Adverbs of hissing

At the end of adverbs after sibilants it is written b.

For example: backhand, wide open, away. Exceptions: already, married, unbearable.

In total, there are 9 adverbs for this rule in the Russian language.: wide open, completely, completely, away, unbearably, backhanded, backwards, galloping, exactly. You can just learn these words. But if some new word is added with a hiss at the end, it will have to be written according to the given rule.

Not And neither in pronominal negative adverbs

In negative adverbs it is written under stress Not, without accent - neither, in both cases these are prefixes and they are written together: nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, no time, never, no where, nowhere, no way, not at all, no matter, no reason (aimless); also not at all, not at all.

For example: once do trifles - never" did not bother with trifles; in summer not"where was playing - children nowhere" didn't play; not "from where" wait for news - not at all "yes" no news came. See also Using the particle NOT and Using the particle NI

Letters n and nn in adverbs

Continuous writing of adverbs

1. Adverbs formed by combining prepositions with an adverb are written together, for example: completely, forever, through, the day before yesterday, from the outside, hardly, the day after tomorrow.

Note 1. Separately written combinations of prepositions with unchangeable words, used in these cases in the meaning of nouns, should be distinguished from such adverbs. Wed: The next day the patient felt better (felt when?, in the meaning of the adverb). - The meeting is scheduled for tomorrow(scheduled for what time? when?, in the meaning of a noun).

2. Adverbs formed by combining the prepositions in and on with collective numerals are written together, for example: doubled, tripled, quadrupled, in two (but: in twos), in three (but: in threes, Also one at a time).

Note. Adverbs of this type are written separately, composed of the preposition in and an adjective starting with a vowel, for example: in the open, in general.

5. Adverbs formed by combining prepositions with nouns are written together, for example: forward, sideways, sometimes, in person, backwards, in starts, at random, in addition, on the contrary, involuntarily, soft-boiled, squatted.

Note 1. The possibility of inserting a defining word (cf.: up - to the very top) does not indicate their separate spelling. These words are written separately only if there is an explanatory word for the specified nouns in the sentence itself or according to the meaning of the context, for example: to the bottom of the dress, into the depths of the ocean, into the foggy distance, at the beginning of autumn, forever and ever, forever and ever, repeat the lesson from the beginning (i.e. “from the beginning”, not “from the beginning”). Wed: Science is studied from the beginning, friendship is cherished from the beginning(proverb). But: We need to start all over again(meaning “again, again, once again”).

Note 2. Many of the words given in this paragraph can be used as prepositions with a controlled noun, and in these cases the continuous spelling is preserved, for example: There was a light visible at the bottom of the door(i.e. the light came from under the door, and did not illuminate the bottom of the door). There was a date at the top of the letter.(the meaning of the adverbial preposition is perceived, and not the objective meaning of “top of the letter”). Wed. Also: to be at the top of bliss, to feel at the top of well-being(with a figurative meaning of the word above), stop in the middle of the road, etc.
