Personal pronoun. Features of personal pronouns in the oblique case of the Russian language

16.10.2019

In Russian, pronouns are of particular importance, it is incredibly difficult to do without them in speech and more efforts are needed to build any sentence without their participation. They allow you to avoid tautology and can replace the word, indicate the relationship between objects and phenomena and characterize many parts of speech: noun, adjective, numeral and even adverb!

By meaning, pronouns are divided into the following categories: personal, reflexive, possessive, relative, interrogative, demonstrative, attributive, indefinite and negative. According to grammatical features, this part of the speech of the Russian language is divided into three groups: generalized subject, generalized qualitative and generalized quantitative.

All personal pronouns

Their function is to indicate an object or a person. This group includes the following words: I, you, we, you, he, she, it, they.

The first four personal pronouns characterize the persons participating in the dialogue.

  • But I given to another; I I will be faithful to him forever. (A. Pushkin)
  • You remember You of course, remember... (S. Yesenin)
  • The more We talking to each other, the less We we understand each other. (E. Remarque)
  • At dawn You don't wake her up... (A. Fet)

It is interesting to note that in the Russian language there are also obsolete personal forms of pronouns that have gone out of our everyday life. For example, onet , used to refer to a group of persons that consists exclusively of objects belonging to the feminine gender.

The last four words from the group characterize persons not participating in the dialogue.

  • At dawn she sleeps so sweetly ... (A. Fet)
  • He was silent at random and sang along out of time, He always talked about something else ... (V. Vysotsky)

They play a role additions or subject. Pronouns change according to cases, numbers and persons. Pronouns referring to the third person can also change by gender.

Refundable

Only one pronoun is reflexive - myself (and other forms).

  1. Genitive case - at home;
  2. Dative - to yourself;
  3. Accusative - into yourself;
  4. Instrumental case - in front of you (yourself);
  5. Prepositional - with me.

It indicates an object, phenomenon or person who is acting in a dialogue.

  • I often think about yourself as an important and intelligent person.
  • Despite her modest demeanor, she often admired yourself, spinning in front of the mirror for hours.

Reflexive pronouns play a role additions.

Possessive

Possessive inflected pronouns are ours, yours, yours, mine. Their function is to indicate the belonging of an object to any person.

  • The teacher said that my writing was the best!
  • Everyone in the family needs to their household chores to keep everything in order.
  • I'm scared because yours the dog growls at me.
  • Your The new dress really suits you.
  • It was our the first award received for excellent performance.

Changing possessive pronouns is similar to how adjectives change. That is, by gender, number and case. In a sentence, they act as definitions, always agreed upon.

Invariable possessive pronouns are her, him, them . These are modified personal pronouns used in the form of the genitive case and the third person.

  • Her platinum hair riveted the enthusiastic glances of passers-by.
  • His the voice was firm and stern.
  • Their the job was great!

relative

They answer questions Which? whose? Who? What? which? How many? what? Often used to connect several simple sentences as part of a complex one.

  • It was noisy, so it was difficult for me to understand Who said these words.
  • Look, How many cows are grazing in the meadow!
  • Lost, I did not know the way home, but to return to the dark forest, from which just got out, didn't intend to.
  • Mom was released from the hospital and I was able to see my little brother. He wasn't like that at all. what I imagined him.
  • I didn't want to eavesdrop, but curiosity got the better of me and I began to listen, about what these two say.

Interrogative

They are most often used in interrogative sentences of the Russian language. Pronouns who what There is no gender, no number, no person. Pronouns which, whose, which, what vary by gender and number. All of them, except for the word what, change in cases.

  • Who came to us this morning? I heard noise.
  • What is that a bundle on the table?
  • Which Do you like the color more: orange or red?
  • Whose did the dog bark last night and keep everyone awake?
  • Which hour?
  • What is it on the face?

pointing

Pronouns this, this, that, such, then So , are indicative. They are designed to distinguish an object from a group of similar ones. For example:

  • This I like the puppy more than the others.
  • This the dress looks amazing!
  • That the person looks suspicious to me.
  • Such A look can drive anyone crazy.
  • Then we were very happy and relaxed.

It is important not to confuse the pronoun This with a particle. “Is it your work that won the competition?” In this sentence, the word "it" is not a pronoun.

Determinants

Himself, most, all, everyone, each, any other, other are examples of definitive pronouns.

This rather large section is divided into several more. The first includes pronouns himself and the most. They have a distinguishing role and give individuality to the object in question.

  • Myself The director of the firm set out to solve the problem.
  • Most a great gift of life is a strong and loving family.

Word the whole covers the full breadth of facial characteristics. For example:

  • Whole the garden was trampled by goats.
  • The sun illuminated all room.
  • All the meeting was in place.

Another, the other have the opposite meaning to what was discussed earlier.

  • We found different way out of the current situation.
  • It turned out that it leads to his house another road.

Anyone, everyone, anyone indicate the possibility of choosing from the majority.

  • Anyone can say that he is a good and sincere person.
  • Everyone knows how rainy the weather is here.
  • Anyone can try their luck at this attraction.

Undefined

They are formed from interrogative and relative. For example, from the pronoun What indefinite pronoun formed something; from the pronoun which indefinite some.

  • They say that someone broke into our neighbor's house and stole everything valuable that was in it.
  • Something terrible and frightening happened last night.
  • Some things are so secret that they cannot be discussed in public.
  • From the closeness standing in the room, a certain lady fainted.
  • Several dogs, barking, rushed to catch up with the unfortunate cat.
  • Some say that everything Oleg said that evening was a lie.
  • A piece of paper, hanging on the building of the unfinished church, said that the whole congregation asked the parishioners to donate at least some money to complete the repair.

Negative

They either describe the negative characteristics of objects or persons, or indicate their complete absence.

  • Nobody none of us expected this turn of events.
  • Nothing couldn't convince him.
  • None we could not dissuade him from this reckless act.
  • He repented, realizing that there was no one to blame for this act, except himself.
  • Lenochka resolutely nothing she had to do, and out of boredom she idly dangled from one end of the apartment to the other.

MEANING AND GRAMMATIC FEATURES OF THE PRONOUN

Pronoun - a part of speech that indicates objects, signs and quantities, but does not name them. An icy stream snaked through the hollow, beyondhim lay the village of Dubrovitsy. The fight ended after an hour.He sometimes it flared up here and there, then it completely died down. The same pronoun He in various sentences indicates an object, but does not name it. The lexical meaning of this pronoun is determined by the context. In the first sentence He- This Creek, in the second the battle.

Some a man, sitting on the ground two steps away from him, fired into the sky with a revolver. Pronoun some indicates a sign, but does not directly correlate with a specific word. It can be replaced by any adjective ( unfamiliar, unknown, alien, strange, young, old and so on.).

Suddenly they jumped out of the forestsome people and began to frantically wave their hands. Pronoun some indicates the number of objects, but does not name a specific number. It can be replaced by any numeral ( five, eight, ten, thirty, nine, eleven etc.).

Pronouns that refer to things ( I, you, we, you, he, it, she, they, yourself, who, what, someone, something, anyone, anything, anyone, anything, someone, something, someone, something, no one, nothing, nobody, nothing), have some characteristics of nouns. Pronouns someone, anyone, someone, someone, someone, he indicate masculine nouns, she- female, it, that, something, something, something, something, something, nothing- neuter. Pronouns I, you indicate masculine, feminine ( I did, I did, you decided, you decided).

Pronouns me, you, you, we who point to animate objects, and What- on the inanimate.

Some of these pronouns are both singular and plural: he, it, she, they.

All these pronouns change by case. Their case forms retain traces of changes in pronouns in ancient times, for example: you - about you; you are about you; she is about her and others. That is why almost every pronoun changes in its own way.

Pronouns that indicate a sign ( mine, yours, ours, yours, yours, that, this, such, such, such, any, each, any, whole, whole, different, other, himself, most, which, which, whose, what, some, any, any, someone, someone, someone, some, some, some, none, none, no one), have the grammatical features of adjectives. They change in cases, numbers and gender, and agree with nouns: any book, any object, any work, any news, about any work etc. Unlike adjectives, they do not have a short form.

There are very few pronouns indicating quantity: how much, how many, a few, how much, not at all. They change only in cases.

The initial form of pronouns is the nominative singular.

In a sentence, pronouns are used as a subject, definition, addition, less often - circumstances: If you only knew... if you only realized what a great thing we are doing! Something close to envy touched the mother's heart. Someone's strong hand clenched his mother's fingers, someone's voice spoke excitedly: "Your son will be an example of courage for all of us." She was searched several times, but always on the day after the leaflets appeared at the factory. you, we, something are subject (who? you, we, something); pronouns ( For) us, her,(after) that - additions ( example for whom? - for us, searched whom? - her, appeared after what? - After that); pronouns what (case), someone's (hand), someone's (voice), your (son), all (us), another (day) - agreed definitions, they all answer the question what?; pronoun repeatedly) - circumstance.

The pronoun can be used as a predicate, but much less often: Now he's mine! I myself am like that - and I do not boast of this more than that. I know who you were. In these sentences, pronouns mine, that's who - predicates, they answer questions what? who is he?

Interrogative and relative pronouns

Words that are answered by nouns (who? what?), adjectives (what? whose? what?), numerals (how much?), form a group of interrogative pronouns. " What will I do for the people? Danko shouted louder than thunder. Suddenly he turned to his mother: “Avdotya Vasilievna, andHow many years of Petrusha?

In sentences containing a question, pronouns what, how much interrogative. Let the Nazis knowWhat able Russian patriot and Bolshevik.

INDEFINITE PRONOUNS

indefinite pronouns ( ne who, ne what, ne which, ne how many etc.) indicate indefinite objects, signs, quantity: Somebody played the violin ... the girl sang in a soft contralto, laughter was heard; He was ready to go to the ends of the world to doanything ; And from the darkness of the branches looked at the walkingsomething terrible, dark, cold; It became scary, as if in this silence silently lay in wait for him.some danger;Some for a while he sat motionless, listening with one ear to the noises and rustles of the night.

Someone, something, something, some, some These are indefinite pronouns.

Indefinite pronouns are formed by adding prefixes to interrogative and relative pronouns something (something, some and etc. ) And non- (ne who, ne what, ne How many and etc. ) , which is always under stress, as well as suffixes -something, -either, -someone (someone, anyone, somebody and etc. ) .

Indefinite pronouns change according to the type of pronouns from which they are formed. Pronouns someone, something, someone, someone, somebody, anyone and others change like interrogative and relative pronouns, while the endings of pronouns with suffixes - something, something, something in oblique cases appear inside the word before the suffix: someone, someone, someone, someone, about someone; some, some, some, some, about some; anyone, anyone, anyone, anyone, anyone.

NEGATIVE PRONOUNS

Negative pronouns ( nobody, nothing, ne whom, ne nothing, nothing, nobody, not at all etc.) serve to deny the presence of any object, feature, quantity, or to reinforce the negative meaning of the entire sentence.

Pronoun- a part of speech that indicates a person, object or sign, but does not name them. Pronouns are divided into:

    Personal: I, we, you, you, he, she, it, they.

    returnable: myself.

    Possessive: mine, ours, yours, yours.

    Interrogative-relative: who, what, which, which, which, whose, how much.

1. Personal pronouns- pronouns indicating persons who are involved in speech: these are noun pronouns. A constant morphological feature for all personal pronouns is the person (I, we are the first person; you, you are the 2nd person; he (she, it, they) are the 3rd person). A constant morphological feature of personal pronouns of the 1st and 2nd person is the number (I, you - singular; we, you - plural). All personal pronouns change in cases, while not only the ending changes, but the whole word (I - me, you - you, he - his); the pronoun of the 3rd person changes by number and gender (in the singular) - he, she, it, they.

2. Reflexive pronoun- a pronoun that means that the action performed by someone is directed at the actor himself. This pronoun is a noun. A reflexive pronoun has no gender, person, number, or nominative form; the reflexive pronoun changes in cases (himself, himself, himself).

3. Possessive pronouns- indicate the attribute of an object by its belonging: these are pronouns-adjectives.

Possessive pronouns change by number, gender (in the singular), cases (mine, mine, mine, mine, mine, etc.). When indicating belonging to a third person, frozen forms of the genitive case of personal pronouns are used - his, her, them.

4. Interrogative pronounsare used in interrogative sentences. Who? What? - noun pronouns. They have no gender, person, number; change in cases (who, whom, what, what, etc.). Which? whose? which? - pronouns-adjectives, change by number, gender (in the singular), cases (what, what, what, what, what, etc.). How many? - pronoun-numeral; changes in cases (how many, how many, how many, etc.). Where? When? Where? where? For what? and others - pronominal adverbs; immutable words.

5. Relative pronounscoincide with interrogatives - who, what, what, whose, which, where, when, how much, where, where, why and others, but are used not as interrogative words, but as allied words in subordinate clauses (I know how much effort he put into this task; I know who is to blame for our failure; I know where the money is hidden. ). Morphological and syntactic characteristics of relative pronouns are the same as for interrogative pronouns.

6. Demonstrative pronouns- these are means of pointing to certain objects, signs, quantity (with a distinction between one and the other).

3. pronouns related to numbers(generalized-quantitative): as much as.

Views of different schools and scholars

The position of the pronoun in parts of speech has historically not been so strong. Its inclusion in the ranks of parts of speech refers to the European grammatical tradition, dating back to antiquity. But in a number of grammatical theories of the 20th century, quite strong objections appeared against this approach. They emphasized the grammatical heterogeneity of pronouns, which qualified as:

  • "pointing words" (K. Brugmann, K. Buhler, U. Weinreich);
  • "indices" or "indicators" (C. S. Pierce, W. Collinson);
  • "words with non-permanent signification" (A. Nuren);
  • "movable determinants" or "shifters" (O. Jespersen, R. O. Jacobson);
  • "actualizers" or "means of transition from language to speech" (Sh. Bally, E. Benveniste);
  • words with "subjective-objective" lexical meaning (A. M. Peshkovsky);
  • "word substitutes" or "substitutes" (L. V. Shcherba, L. Bloomfield, Z. Z. Harris);
  • "representatives" (F. Bruno);
  • "survivals of a special part of speech" (V. V. Vinogradov); and so on.

M. V. Lomonosov and F. I. Buslaev consider them as official

Pronouns of the 2nd and 1st person (singular or plural) can indicate certain persons, a person walking past, an interlocutor (I, you, you, we).

3rd person pronouns (singular or plural) indicate those or someone who Not participates in a dialogue, or on an object (he, she, it, they). Personal pronouns can be used with prepositions: at him, to him, behind him, with them, with him, thanks to him, her, them.

Forms of personal pronouns in Russian

Pronouns of the 3rd person have different forms in the presence and absence of a preposition: her - with her, them - with them (after the preposition "n-" is added).

Some pronouns in the instrumental case have additional "elongated" forms: me - me, you - you, her - her, her - her.

All personal pronouns have the same genitive and accusative forms.

Definitions and applications relating to personal pronouns are always separated by commas.
