level of oral and written language is an important factor for success.Morphological analysis of the predicate in any sentence, which includes a definition of gender, number, inclination, time and especially the person of the verb, raises many questions.In fact, whether Russian or English, the difficulties, there is only characteristics that you need to remember.
person verb in Russian
When it comes to the verbs in the Russian language, the main difficulties faced by the people of his student - generated a lot of verb endings, determined, inter alia, one of the three persons.Indeed, the latter is not only determined by the past tense and the infinitive.
person pronoun defines the verb with which it is combined and can exist both in the plural and singular.For clarity, you can play it in a simple table:
| person verb | number | |
| only | Multiple | |
| 1 | I | we |
| 2 | you | you |
| 3 | it, it, it | they |
most simple to grasp - the first form, which indicates that the speaker describes the action relates to the other.If he says "we", it is understood that he is a member of the group, which tells the story.The second person is used when the speaker addresses his interlocutor / interlocutors.In these cases, everything is transparent.
first and second form - personal, and the third may take, including and impersonal value.For example, the story in the third person may refer to a specific or an indeterminate person / persons, and can be used in a sentence without a subject.Given this, it can be argued that this form is the most multi-faceted and complex.
person verb in English
As described above, in the Russian language at the end of a predicate can be determined, in the face of what is a verb.The English language evolved differently.If you remove the phrase from the predicate verb, then it is impossible to determine this grammatical category (the exception is only the third person singular, where there is a typical end).
determine the form of the verb can only be looking at a pronoun that refers to it as the very word for the action, in most cases, used in the same form.
Only a few verbs fall out of this logical chain:
- to be (inclined);
- must other modal verbs (always used in the form);
- have (in the third person has a form has).
With the first two everything is clear, and the service to be a verb must be disassembled separately.If the face detection does not differ from those of the Russian language, the rules of formation are as follows (in parentheses are the pronouns with the verb that is used in this form):
- first person singular - am (I);
- third number singular - is (She, He, It);
- in other cases takes the form of the verb are (You, We, They).
In the simple past tense «to be» - the only one of all English verbs, which takes two forms: «was» in the singular, «were» in the plural.
Thus, the concept of the person predicate in Russian and foreign languages alike, but its shape are formed in different ways.Only practice will allow it to achieve error-free determination and to build the correct grammatical structure.
