The Instrumental Case | Learn Russian Grammar

- In this video we're discussing the Russian Instrumental Case. The primary function of the Instrumental Case is to indicate the instrument or tool used to complete an action. In this sense, it used without the preposition 'c'. When used after the preposition 'c', the Instrumental Case roughly means "with" (as in "together with someone / something", as opposed to indicating an instrument / tool). Of course there are other uses of the Instrumental Case, as well as plural forms...all of which we'll cover in another video!

Hey guys!! We hope you enjoy the video! :) If you have any questions about Russian grammar, or about the Instrumental Case specifically, be sure to let us know in the comments below. :)
Great content. This case and dative are taking me the most time, not exactly because I didn't understand it but because I can't put in practice.
That's what I do! Reference a few examples in my head and then apply the same rule. Great advice.
Yes! It's a great way to remember some of these rules (and their common exceptions as well).
Спасибо за видео!
You're so welcome!! Just let us know if there's any other topics that you'd like us to cover!
This channel is soooo underrated! Thank you for the good explanation. I would be pleased if you add another video for plural and adjectives too. Большое спасибо
Thank you so much! We'll be sure to keep the videos coming; and we'll cover adjectives as well! :)

Excellent video - your very good. Please try and make some more videos they are really helping us and will help your channel to grow.
Super , greetings from Greece . I love watching your videos , спасибо !
Excellent explanation! Best video on youtube for understanding cases hands down
Good class. Congrats. If that’s all possible if you could leave a table with all these rules it will be usefull. Thank you. Greetings from Brazil. 🇧🇷
You are by far the best Russian teacher I ever found. You explain everything so perfectly and simply. and go at a nice slow pace with many examples. I finally understand how cases work and their forms after I tried learning from many different youtubers, but you are the only one that made it make sense. I can't thank you enough. Also I have your app and its amazing! plenty of good content and I love the English translations under the sentences too. thank you so much for everything.
отличный! Большое спасибо!!
From my experience as a teacher of English as a foreign language I can say that I very much agree with this fellow's advice to learn fixed common sentences to remember grammar. English doesn't have all the Russian endings of course but the verb tenses in English are a big challenge for learners and I give the same advice for English as the advice here for Russian.
For example, learn "How long have you been waiting?" by heart just as this fellow recommends learning "кофе с молоком" by heart.
Greetings to all you fellow Russian leaners out there. Hang in there! Mbi преуспeem!
Thanks for teaching me in this, to me ,relaxed way .Love it !!
This is a very effective way to learn Russian! Thank you for what you do! ❤
You're so welcome!
Большое спасибо.
ΕΥΧΑΡΙΣΤΏ 🙏
Please keep uploading videos. You are a one of best teacher I met on UA-cam. Thank you so much. Congratz from Sri Lanka.🙏
@14:58 you have I drink tea with the cat :)
ой ой, At 14:57 It's written "Я пью чай с кошкой" instead of "Я играю с кошкой", it's funny 😂. Excellent video by the way друг you got a new subscriber.
Thank you so much for this great video!! This is really awesome! :)
I found your video to be easily understood with great examples. Thank you!
Thanks for the very clear video! If you are saying that you're speaking with someone and you mention him/her with both name and patronymic, both should be in the instrumental case, right?
I’ve been taking Russian for about 5.5 months, and the way you explain cases is far and above what my teacher has been able to do.
Perhaps it’s time to find a new teacher.
I mean even as minor as “don’t use “с” with actual tools…” she wouldn’t even say that. She’d tell me to just remember certain things. She’s a native speaker, and speaks 4 languages. She has her degree in language education, but her English isn’t as good as yours… not sure if that’s the issue, but in any event, I think I’ll look for a new teacher.

So I'm kinda struggling to understand where the stress falls but I noticed a pattern and I'd like to know whether this holds true in general or whether it was just coincidence. So -ом seemed to be unstressed in most words except those that already had the stress on the last syllable in nominative case (молокó => молокóм). Also for nouns that only have one syllable like нóж => ножóм. Is it always like that?
Edit: лимóн => лимóном breaks my rule so i'm guessing no
I also love to пить чай с кошкой.
lol! ooopss! :)
I subscribed to your channel to support you. I got a channel too, and I know what it means . I am planning to travel to Russia. You are great
