Words of indeclinable nouns. Indeclinable nouns

In modern literary language there is a fairly significant number of nouns, which in their meaning and syntactic usage do not differ from other nouns, but, unlike them, do not form case forms, do not bow.

Such indeclinable nouns are, first of all, many borrowed words masculine, feminine. and average genders that end in vowels y, i, e, o and hit A:kangaroo, cockatoo, stew, passe-partout, interview, hummingbird, drapery, jury, lady, muffler, coffee, rentier, tour, purse, foyer, bureau, depot, veto, cocoa, coat, piano, role, entrechat, bourgeois etc. This also includes words of non-Russian origin used in the Russian language proper names with the same vowels: Peru, Baku, Hankou, Bartu, Tahiti, Chile, Somalia, Tbilisi, Sukhumi, Leonardi, Garibaldi, Mary, Kitty, Calais, Ostend, Goethe, Heine, Jose, Bordeaux, Oslo, Tokyo, Hugo, Leonardo, Bruno, Alma- Ata, Yoshkar-Ola etc. In addition, feminine nouns do not change by case from borrowed words. genders ending in a hard consonant, including proper names: Madame, Carmen, Madeleine, Kate, Helen; surnames applied to women: Peterson, Ginzburg, Polyak, Tager etc.

Then some surnames formed by means of certain suffixes are indeclinable nouns. These are the surnames that represent fossilized forms of the clan. pad. units and plural numbers, into suffixes -ovo: Khitrovo, Solovovo, Durnovo etc.; -ago: Zhivago, Veselago etc.; -them: Dry, Naked, Mountain, Twisted etc., as well as surnames with the suffix -ko, if their stress falls on the final vowel: Lyashko, Yanko, Franko etc. and when the stress is not on the final vowel: Korolenko, Shevchenko, Yaroshenko etc., when such surnames are applied to women.



Currently, the number of indeclinable nouns is increasing due to compound words formed by combining initial letters or sounds full name. Such words are not declined if they end in a vowel in pronunciation or if in writing they consist only of letters denoting consonants: USSR(eseseser), Central Committee(tseka), Red Army(erkakaa), MONO, STO etc.

Without changing by case, indeclinable nouns appear, however, in speech in the same meanings that are expressed by the case forms of ordinary nouns, cf.: hanging a coat, sewing a coat, putting on a coat, happy with the coat etc.; Moreover, their relationship to other words of speech can also be expressed by prepositions: button from a coat, wrapped in a coat, sewed a button to a coat, altered from a coat etc. Adjectives that qualify such indeclinable nouns are placed in the case in which they would be in this proposal with inflected nouns: new coat hanging(dress), no new coat(dresses), approached the new coat(dress), etc.

Due to the lack of case forms, indeclinable nouns do not have morphological features, through which their number and gender would be distinguished. Therefore, the belonging of these nouns to one gender or another, as well as their number, is determined exclusively syntactically, by consistent forms of adjectives and verbs: beautiful cockatoo, noble lady, woolen muffler, new coat hanging, new coats hanging etc.

There is a certain semantic sequence in the distribution of indeclinable nouns, not proper names, by gender. Namely: words denoting “non-living”, “inanimate” objects, as a rule, belong to the middle. family: stew, interview, drapery, muffler, purse, bureau, depot, coat, piano, role etc. The deviations observed in this relationship ( burnt coffee etc.) are explained mainly by the use of these words in the same way as they are in the language from which they were borrowed. In language writers of the 19th century centuries there were quite a lot of them, cf.: Ai is like a mistress... but you, Bordeaux, are like a friend(A. Pushkin), He is happy if she puts a fluffy boa on her shoulder(A. Pushkin), our bet(M. Lermontov), my cocoa, lovely piano, gray coat(L. Tolstoy), the wallet was left under the pillow(F. Dostoevsky), worn muffler(A. Pisemsky) and others, but now in most cases such words are average. kind. Words average The genders are opposed by masculine nouns. and female genders that denote “living”, “animate” objects. Of these, to women's. gender refers to words denoting female persons: lady, madam, and to the male gender - words that denote “living” objects regardless of their belonging to one gender or another: bourgeois, rentier, kangaroo, cockatoo etc.

  3. When combining indeclinable nouns with other words, the case form is determined either by the construction of the entire sentence: There was a new dressing table in the room (im. p.), or by the endings of adjectives consistent with indeclinable nouns: He wrapped his neck in a soft muffler (tv. p.).

    If it is necessary to emphasize the gender of an animal, the noun is usually determined by an adjective in the form husband. or female r. (for formations such as chimpanzychs and kangaroos, see 384). In this case, the feminine gender denotes that the animal belongs to female, and for the masculine gender, in addition to the ability to denote belonging to male, the possibility of a general designation remains possible, regardless of gender: It’s not every day that we have to sit in the company of a young and in its own way pretty chimpanzee (gas.); Monkeys have developed a certain instinct for crawling things. When we have to calm down a rebellious chimpanzee, we turn to the common grass snake; Baby Vega is the first and so far only chimpanzee born in zoos Soviet Union. She is five months old (gas).

Indeclinable nouns: definition and examples

1. Words of foreign language origin that name inanimate objects and end in a vowel: canoe, metro, foyer, cinema, cafe, coat, purse, radio, taxi, cockatoo, interview, menu.

2. Words of foreign origin that name female and male persons and end in a vowel: attache, dandy, referee, maestro, Hugo, lady, impresario, Nana, Shaw, Barto, Dumas, Verdi, Daudet, Zola, Dante.

Using indeclinable names nouns in speech (in phrases, in sentences), you must be able to determine their gender in order to correctly coordinate adjectives and past tense verbs with them. There are specific rules for determining the gender of such nouns. If in doubt, you can look it up in a dictionary.

Gender of nouns. Indeclinable nouns

The gender of indeclinable nouns of foreign language origin is determined as follows.

· Words denoting inanimate objects are neuter (woolen muffler).

This rule has a number of exceptions related to the influence of various analogies: a Russian synonym, the gender of a word denoting a generic concept, etc. In such cases, the noun is used as bigender. For example: Esperanto - cf. and m.r. under the influence of the generic concept - language. Exception: coffee is masculine (black coffee) (Currently in colloquial speech this noun has fluctuations in gender, which has already been noted by some textbooks on speech culture.)

· Nouns denoting female persons are feminine, and male nouns are masculine (old lady, rich rentier); denoting both (such as vis-a-vis, protégé, incognito, croupier) are bigeneric (my vis-a-vis is my vis-a-vis).

· Nouns denoting animals, birds and other animate objects are classified as masculine, regardless of the gender of the animal (funny pony), except in cases where the female is meant (Chimpanze was nursing a baby). The word hummingbird is bigeneric under the influence of the word bird (In modern spoken language this word is increasingly used in the feminine gender (tiny hummingbird). The same applies to the words tsetse (fly), kiwi (bird), iwasi (fish, herring).

· Gender of nouns denoting geographical names, determined by generic name: river, city, island, etc. (Capri attracted tourists - the island).

· The gender of the names of press organs is determined by the generic name (“The Daily Worker” wrote the newspaper).

· Substantivized indeclinable words belong to the neuter gender (our tomorrow).

· Compound abbreviated words (abbreviations), formed by combining the initial letters of the words of the full name, determine their gender by the gender of the leading word of the compound name ( former USSR– union; Moscow State University has announced admission - university).

· The gender of foreign abbreviations is determined by their meaning (approved by FIDE - the international chess organization).

2. Series of nouns masculine in the nominative plural case it has endings =а (=я): address - addresses, poplar - poplars. The most common nouns receiving this form are: side, shore, century, evening, eye, voice, director, house, doctor, building, edge, camp, master, number, order, island, passport, train, professor, volume, color. In case of hesitation in choosing endings =ы(=и) - =а(=я) the latter are more typical for household and professional speech: years - years, inspectors - inspectors, searchlights - searchlights, sectors - sectors, mechanics - mechanics, turners - turners, poplars - poplars, tractors - tractors, anchors - anchors. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that some variant forms differ in meaning: images(artistic and literary) and image(icons), teachers(thought leaders) and teachers(teachers), flowers(plants) - colors(coloring), etc.

3. Animate are masculine and feminine nouns that denote living beings (people, animals) and mythical ( devil, brownie). However, animate nouns also include words such as doll, dead man, deceased, and some neuter nouns (child, animal, person – human, mammal, insect, monster, monster). U animate nouns of all births in plural and masculine 1st declension in singular the endings of the accusative and genitive cases coincide. At the zoo the children saw elephant(white bear, exotic animals, others children). Inanimate nouns used in figurative meaning, are perceived as animate. Wed: In daylight it is impossible to see the stars and at the gala concert we saw real stars.

4. Among the nouns there are indeclinables, i.e. preserving initial form in all cases. These include:

1) Words of foreign origin that end in a vowel: menu, metro.

2) Foreign names for females: lady, miss, frau.

3) Russian surnames =ago, =yago, =ovo, =ykh, =their. Zhivago, Durnovo, Teplykh, Dolgikh.

4) Compound words like RF (Russian Federation), Deputy Director

If indeclinable nouns name objects, they are neuter, except coffee (kimono, domino), if they are living beings, their gender depends on the sex of the latter: young - young kangaroo, Durnovo reported - a.

In the absence of gender indications, animal names are assigned to the masculine gender.

5. Foreign surnames on –s And –in have in instrumental case ending -ohm, unlike Russian surnames that have the ending –th. Wed: Vlasov th and Darwin ohm.

6. B genitive case plural in Russian literary language it is used following forms nouns (some without endings, others with endings):

noun m.r.: a pair of boots, felt boots, shoulder straps, boots, stockings(BUT: socks, oranges, eggplants, hectares, tangerines, tomatoes, rails, tomatoes); among Armenians, Georgians, Ossetians, Bashkirs, Buryats, Romanians, Tatras, Turkmens, Turks, Gypsies(BUT: Kalmyks, Kyrgyz, Mongols, Tajiks, Tungus, Uzbeks, Yakuts); several amperes, watts, volts(BUT: grams, kilograms);

noun w.r.: no barge, waffles, shaft (additional shafts), poker, sheet, share, candles(BUT: saying – The game is not worth the candle);

noun average: no upper reaches, lower reaches, knees, apples, tips, swamps, saucers, mirrors, towels.

7. In Russian the words: weekdays, rake, frost, twilight, manger there are no singular forms.

When using adjectives verbally and writing there may be such difficulties.

1. When full form adjective name used in Nominative case in the role compound predicate, as a rule, cannot be controlled words, but in a short form they can. Wed: he is sick with a sore throat - he is sick with a sore throat.

2. Forms of words are not used better, worse etc., since the second word itself already expresses the meaning comparative degree.

3. In modern Russian literary language the following forms of comparative degree are used: more lively, louder, more dexterous, sweeter, more trenchant.

· Not used as homogeneous members complete and short form adjective name. Wed: he is rich and smart - he is rich and smart.

Miss in boa took a bite of stew,
Which you wouldn’t wish on your enemy.

And madam licked the popsicle,
What lay on the lame dressing table.

Well, the missus chose the menu
In a small cafe on the avenue.

And then we went to the subway,
Where citro was not sold;

We only bought sturgeon,
But fry: there is no wood for the fire...

The chimpanzee ran along the highway
A cockatoo was circling over the plateau,

The kangaroo jumped where everyone else was
And he blew into a spruce pipe...

The attache wrote a communique,
He was driving in a compartment, reading Dumas,

And the coat was hanging on a hook
And it drove the attaché crazy...

Reviews

Nadezhda, thank you for the poems.
You and I are doing the same thing. My poems are mostly grammatical.
So we will visit each other and exchange experiences.
Nice to meet you.
Happy May holidays to you. Irina.

Nadezhda, we are colleagues. I was a Russian language teacher. I also worked with children separately. I wrote (and still write) grammatical poems for my grandchildren. Precisely to make it interesting to study the rules. And other children found my poems useful. They are reading.
All the best to you.
