If you are familiar with Russian grammar<\/a>, you’ll probably assume that learning Russian verb conjugations will be a horror show.<\/span>
\nYou might already know that conjugation presupposes change of a verb depending on a subject and a number. In Russian, apart from the infinitive, there are six forms of a verb that are defined by an agent. Take a deep breathe, because we are going to end your fear of verb conjugation by setting out the rules in an easy to understand way… we promise!<\/span>
\nIn English, there is a very simple conjugation system. Here’s how it works:<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

1) the verb \u2018to be\u2019<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I <\/span>am <\/span>reading\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0We <\/span>are<\/span> reading<\/span>
\nYou <\/span>are<\/span> reading \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0You <\/span>are<\/span> reading<\/span>
\nHe\/she <\/span>is<\/span> reading\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0They <\/span>are<\/span> reading<\/span>
\n\"Tackle<\/p>\n

2) verbs in the present tense third person singular:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

He\/she <\/span><\/i>reads<\/span><\/i> a book every day<\/span><\/i> as opposed to <\/span>I\/you\/we\/they <\/span><\/i>read <\/span><\/i>a book every day.<\/span><\/i>
\nAs mentioned above, unlike in English, the Russian system of conjugation is far more complex. Let\u2019s have a look at the most frequent verb suffixes for all verb forms in the present tense.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to conjugate verbs in Russian<\/b><\/h2>\n

There are two conjugations in Russian: the first and the second.<\/span>
\nThe first conjugation can also be called an \u2018e-conjugation\u2019 because it often contains a letter \u2018e\u2019 in the suffix of the infinitive, the verb forms of the 2<\/span>nd<\/span> and the 3<\/span>rd<\/span> person singular as well as of the 1<\/span>st<\/span>, the 2<\/span>nd<\/span> and the 3<\/span>rd<\/span> person plural.<\/span>
\nThe second conjugation is called an \u2018i-conjugation\u2019 because it has the Russian letter \u2018\u0438\u2019 in the suffixes of the respective verb forms.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Tackle
Suffixes of the verbs belonging to the 1st and the 2nd conjugation often differ by one letter only (\u0438 as opposed to \u0435, \u044f as opposed to \u044e and \u0430 as opposed to \u0443)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"Tackle
Suffixes of the verbs belonging to the 1st and the 2nd conjugation often differ by one letter only (\u0438 as opposed to \u0435, \u044f as opposed to \u044e and \u0430 as opposed to \u0443)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

However, because of the tricky pronunciation of the unstressed vowels in Russian, you cannot be sure which vowel to place in a suffix \u2013 \u2018\u0435\u2019 or \u2018\u0438\u2019. <\/span>
\nTo make things more complicated, you can only be certain how to spell a word correctly after<\/em> you define the conjugation of a given verb. \u00a0So, how do we distinguish which verbs belong to which conjugation considering that not every infinitive contains a \u2018\u0435\u2019 or a \u2018\u0438\u2019 in the suffix in the first place?<\/span>

Things to remember about verb conjugation in Russian<\/b><\/h2>\n

As you might have noticed, unlike in English, the Russian conjugation system is very intricate because:<\/span>
\n\"Tackle
\n1) \u00a0<\/span> All the verbs are grouped into 2 conjugations depending on their endings, of which there are quite a few to memorize.<\/span>
\n2) \u00a0<\/span> Frequently, there is an interchange of sounds that you have to remember because it can only be explained by some ancient phonetic laws, i.e. the letter \u2018\u0442\u2019 in the infinitive is substituted with \u2018\u0447\u2019 in some word forms, \u00a0\u2018\u0441\u2019 changes to \u2018\u0448\u2019 and \u2018\u0436\u2019 changes to \u2018\u0433\u2019 respectively :<\/span>
\n\"Tackle<\/span>
\n3) \u00a0<\/span> There are a lot of exceptions to the rules.<\/span>
\nOne of the examples is the verb <\/span>\u2018\u0445\u043e\u0442\u0435\u0442\u044c\u2019 [hat<\/span><\/i>e<\/i><\/b>t\u2019] – \u2018to want\u2019 <\/span><\/i>which is conjugated irregularly. In the singular, it\u2019s conjugated like a verb of the 1<\/span>st<\/span> conjugation and in the plural \u2013 like a verb of the second conjugation:<\/span>
\n\"Tackle<\/span>
\nAnother common verb whose conjugation you have to remember is <\/span>\u2018\u0435\u0441\u0442\u044c\u2019 [jest\u2019] \u2013 to eat<\/span><\/i>
\n\"Tackle
\nAlthough these endings might seem to be overwhelming, once you have learned a couple of dozens of verbs, you will notice that all of them follow only a few conjugational patterns. Therefore, take a step at a time, memorize all of the forms of the most common verbs, and you will be able to conjugate Russian verbs in no time at all!<\/span><\/p>\n
