Моя дорогая Антония, большое спасибо за этот замечательный урок. то, что вы представили, было настолько основательным, что просто невозможно запутаться в русской системе глаголов, которая, в общем, довольно проста - в отличие от ее порочной системы предложных падежей! Спасибо за духовный совет и поддержку! Всего хорошего!
Hey Antonia Romarker !!! I really appreciate your help, now i am taking my Russian language class in order to study my masters degree in Russian language. At first Russian language was very difficult for me, but now with the help of your videos i managed to understand the language. i still have some problems with where to STRESS when you read a word, but now i want to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND YOU DESERVE A BIG HUG !!!
I am learning russian now with a teacher, I couldn't understand the perfective and imperfective aspects till I watched your video..I am so grateful and would really thank you..It was really helful for me..I am so glad that now I know the russian aspects..Thank you
Thanks very much 🌷💝 I really got my teacher angry because I didn't understand anything ,but now I've understood it very well ,thanks a lot for your help 😇🌷
Thanks Antonia! Well! As for me, it was not difficult to understand that читать is an imperfect and прочитать is a perferct verb. But when прочитывать is an imperfect verb, I started winding gears. But with drills I will manage.
С суффиксами ива/ыва это "вторичный" несовершенный вид, образованный от глагола совершенного вида. Общая схема такая глагол(несов.вид) _ приставка+глагол(сов.вид) _ приставка+глагол+ива/ыва(вторичный несов.вид).
First I come here for the rational and clear minded explanation that makes sense, then I go to R for Russian for the weird explanation that makes no sense, but helps me remember this one. I would love to see your two channels work together.. I think you guys could do great things.
you mean the explanation that goes "so this word dosent want to be like the others, (SMURF) it wants to be special (SMURF) and its this way so you wont twist your tongue (KITTY)...(MORE SMURFS)" No thank you...
Ms.Antonia, I got to tell you how helpful are your videos. As a Russian formal language student, I had checked quite lots of videos which always try to explain this topic, regarding aspects of verbs and in order to evaluate them. But, you have shown an absolutely easy and user-friendly manner to explain it. At the moment of watching this video, I'm already familiar with this, so I'm pos-congratulating you and wishing you to keep going. An advice for this valuable channel is just to sort the content in a playlist :)
Ура, я не сделал ошибок ! Спасибо большое за бесплатную знанию. Это тема трудно понять но вы объясните доступно и ясно. Как я понимаю, что в русском языке есть две формы. Форму нсв и форму св. Нсв часто длинные чем св и если в глаголе есть "ыва" это нсв. Просто нужно выучить их наизусть. Я желаю всем успехов в изучении русского языка и не унывать но быть мудрым.
Bulgarian here. Modern day Bulgarian and Russian are both decedents of the same church-slavonic language. We have kept or altered different aspects of the language. We have both shifted certain vowels that are no longer in use like Ѣ, Ѫ, etc. And we both have aspects of our verbs. The seeming exceptionality of "покупать" can be easily explained with the changes that occurred in the language through the ages. First, there is an imperfective-perfective pair: "покупать" and "покупить", but the latter verb is already archaic. Second, there should have been imperfective-perfective pair: "купать" and "купить", but due to vowel shift, the archaic word for bathe, "кѫпати", collapsed in Russian into "купать", thus destroying the above pair as "купать" nowadays is used only in the meaning of "to bathe". This problem does not exist in Bulgarian, because our vowel shift of "ѫ" went into a sound similar to the vowel in "her". As the closest Russian vowel to the vowel in "her" is "ы", there could have been a word "кыпать" instead, hadn't the Russian vowel shift followed a different route. Here is an old text with the word "покупить". "Для жъ сохраненія солдатъ отъ дальнѣйшаго по жесточайшимъ морозамъ изнуренія весьма нужно покупить на нихъ шубы, онучи и лапти, что я и приказалъ." Я. К. Грот, «Материалы для истории Пугачевскаго бунта», 1862 г.
"Modern day Bulgarian and Russian are both decedents of the same church-slavonic language." I can't agree with you. Modern day Bulgarian is descendant of the dialect, which Old Church Slavonic was based on. Russian, in its turn is a descendant of the Old Russian language (a common ancestor for Ukrainian and Belorusian languages). Though, Russian, in its own time, underwent the influence of Church Slavonic, a Russian form of Old Church Slavonic.
Thank you as always. I need to memorize aspect pairs. I have the 500 russian verb book that goes through alot of this, but you lesson really reinforced and guided my studies. Thank you. I need to find the lesson that covered что нибуд.
Антония. 11:15 Почему мы используем слово "по" перед цифрой "три" в этом предложении пожалуйста? 14:14 Я также размышлял почему мы используем слово "да" перед "забываешь" в упражнении № 4.
As a child, I was taught only 3 Tenses in the English language. They were the same as Russian Tenses. I had no idea that someone complicated it even more.
+Antonia Romaker - English and Russian online Also the 10 sentences at the end are very useful. Reading these sentences was great practice because it has in-depth application of the concepts.
Thank you so much this is incredible. .. my day was bad because of this lesson i didn't understand it .. but after watching your video... i understand it whole ... just thank you .. great job you are молодец! )))))
Thx for the video, you explain it really clear. I'm not sure I have understood something tho. Here 5:45, I didn't understand what the third verb mean, why is it there when it's supposed to be just 2 aspects or forms of the verb, and what is the difference between that one and the first one, thank you.
the verb прочитывать is not popular at all, and it is actually not so easy to explain its meaning, it is used to talk about a repeated action which has a result in sentences like this: Каждый день он прочитывает по 100 страниц. Every day he reads 100 pages.
He's going to put a link to the video in the syllabus after the lesson, or on the online course webpage.. he's a PhD at the University of Souther California.
In English “had done something” indicates the past in the past.eg when I had eaten my dinner I went out. This means I ate my dinner first then I went out. Another example, she arrived after I had left. This means I left then she arrived.
Actually English only has 2 tenses the past and the present this is because a tense is defined as a change to the verb itself the -ed ending which represent the past tense. And also English doesn't have a Future tense because you are the helping verb "will" with the infinitive of the verb. This is why French and Italian along with any other romance language has 3 tense the present, past and future because the verb is actually changed in each tense unlike English
Saba khelashvili It is true. English has only 2 tenses, just like the %90 of the world's languages: Present and Past. Because Future "tense" actually is not a tense, it is a modality. A lot of people misconcept the ideas of "tenses, aspects and modalities". Let's take a look at this sentence "I will have been studying by then." So this sentence is in 'present tense, perfective and progressive aspects and futurity modality.' In order to change the tense into Past, then it is.. "I would have been studying by then."
This is a great video. Couldn't we translate the perfective of "Ya Prochitala Kinigu"- for a completed action from start to finish as English's *Present Perfect*- I have read the book- rather than English's past perfect- I had read the book?
That was a wonderful explanation, thank you. Molodietz. Don't get me started on the French language; verbs, tenses... Beautiful language as is Russian.
Quick question. At the end of this video you mentioned we will keep practicing the past tense and future tense... can you please share a link to those videos? I tried to do a channel search, but only located the English counterparts. Many thanks in advance :)
+Ana Gl unfortunately I don't have classes about future and past yet, I have released the video summarising the Russian present recently - ua-cam.com/video/r8W8FiFFbTM/v-deo.html But of course I'll make these videos later ;)
I think this was really helpful to me. I find it easy to remember the perfective verb along with its imperfective because, though I can't describe it, they sound logical together. I have a question, though. Some of my native speakers use a perfective verb in its infinitive form in complex verb phrases. For instances, they could say "Мне нужно прочитать книгу." The concept of "needing" is happening in the present, but phrase implies completion in the future. Is this something that Russian speakers do? Use the perfecrive in its infinitive in present tense complex verb phrases? I see this a lot with the verb сделать and, honestly, I think I see my friends using this perfective form more than its imperfective form.
Solstice Song the result of us doing smth is very important, so perfective forms are used quite often, I guess, you are right. As for using perfective in phrases like you have described, it is quite common, and in most cases (maybe even in all of them) we use perfective verbs, I need to think about it and investigate it further :)
Good news for English learners is all of the complicated tenses are in the past, and you don't need to use them in order to speak good English. You don't need to learn to say "Had I known it, I would never have done it"
Should we necessarily specify a time range when we use perfective future in Russian as we do in English - I will have complete my task within a week/ for 3 days/by tomorrow ?
Thank you Antonia for your videos . I' m so eager to improve . "Я учила не выучила" когда я была в университете between 1993-95 . May I tell you that "Yesterday I had read " doesn't seem appropriate to me if it isn't followed by for example ... : the phone rang . Why not say : I was reading ... When I was at the university, the teachers told us there are only two tenses in English : Past and present and two aspects and modals . Thank you for your work . Пока Антоня !
@@AntoniaRomaker Definitely ! I was taught that way . That is the combination of these tenses present and past and aspects be-ing and have-en which give us all the possibilities . I think listening to you I am understanding the questions I was asking myself at that time and perhaps Imperfective is just like be-ing and perfective : Have-en . However in English there are also simple present and simple past which are used to enunciate and in the case of past action is done . What do you think of it ? Just think of it ! Special thoughts of my teacher of grammar who passed several years ago . Я очень рада если помогаю бас . Пока Антонина !
Hi there , few months ago asked some questions about aspects and I think Ive got more of those questions heh :) Here are some cases that I wondered what/which aspect I should be using. Negative sentences in the future and past. Lets assume that we're playing some game. We are not going to win eventually , so what I would say is " эй парни , не старайтесь , мы все равно не сможим выиграть эту игру" or " мы не можим выигрывать " . Which one is correct? That example was on future and here is a past tense example that I want to find out the answer- вчера я собаку не кормил/покормил. May its imp. since you said its used to describe unfinished things . Thank you :)
Мы не можем выиграть - present Мы не сможем выиграть - future Вчера я собаку не покормил. Вчера я собаку не кормил. Both are possible. In the first one u just underline the idea of a finished action and in the second you talk about just a fact.
Hello could you please tell me why sometimes some verbs are preceded by imperfective but also by perfective?. I've noticed that in many websites Russians use the verb хотеть, they use it in perfective and in imperfective, so this confuses me a little bit because i'm not sure which aspect i should use. Would it be correct to say я хочу читать эту книгу? Or should i say я хочу прочитать эту книгу?
Dear teacher, could you please suggest some way to classify HCB-CB pairs in to groups for easily remember? For example, when CB=HCB+prefix, when CB=HCB+infix...
I guess I was too curious about the aspects... now I feel kinda sorry for my brain xD but this won't stop me to learn more :) great lesson :D btw I'm a new subscriber :)
As a foreigner, I can tell you that I never think about them - and I speak fluent English and got straight A's during my English classes with the highest possible difficulty.
The present tense is NOT used for the past in English, in fact that is a standard learner mistake ("I am living here for 3 years"). The point about the perfect continuous in English is that it runs from the past into the present but it does not denote the present tense alone. "I have been living here for three years"
Antonia - Let me know, what sort of verb can i use after "можно" : imperfective or perfective ? Ex - можно мне купить эту книгу или можно мне покупать эту книгу ? (in this case) Please.
'можно мне купить эту книгу', because you are interested in the result, not the process. Both types can be used, the logic is generally the same as in the difference between perfective and imperfective verbs.
For example, we should usually use the perfective imperative for giving an order to someone, and the imperfective form of the imperative for telling someone NOT to do something. Read this! "прочитай это" Dont read this! "Не читайте это". But sometimes the forms are the same if Im telling someone to do something, or NOT to do something, yes? Also, I can say "посмотри" or "смотри" if im telling someone to simply "look". I haven't found an answer to this and Russian speakers can't explain it.
Isn't it so, that in English there are three tenses too? And the Simple, Continuous, Perfect and Perfect Continuous are just aspects as well as perfective and imperfective in Russian.
Dear Antonia , The main problem and question is how the 12 tenses in English have been covered in the Russian language through the time line using only 3 tenses ??? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I Study that there is 5 tenses in Russian (cosidering Future Simple and Future Compound ) using HCB and CB but I am still confused .
Добрый день! Помогите разобраться! Я все таки не понял поечму "I had read" а не просто в прошедшем времени. Всегда думал что для того чтобы употребить past perfect нужно иметь одно произошедшее событие перед другим?!
Спасибки большое! И еще вот интересуют какие-нибудь материалы или книги где граматика английская объясняется через сравнение с русской (схожести или различия)
+Stanislav Maltsev книги я такие уже ооооочень давно не использую, поэтому мне сложно что-либо стоящее посоветовать. Вы смотрите видео на моем втором канале, где я объясняю по-русски? Там я сравниваю с русским, конечно - ua-cam.com/channels/PoiV2uNarbet_bYAd-SopQ.html
I'd say, it is rather about understanding during some time (up to infinity) vs understanding as such without any time duration marked. "Perfective" to understand means that somebody has understood smth, "imperfective" version means that somebody understands smth in time (which is like a continuation of the perfective form's meaning). Both of these forms imply that understanding is complete, but one is about complete understanding for some time, while the perfective rather tells about the very first moment of complete understanding.
Hello ...... Your video is very helpful . But I am confused in начать-начинать и кончать-кончить .....I know which is perfective and imperfective but dont know how to use them in sentences ......if possible please explain by giving an example . I will be so thankful ))
Thank you so so much. I can't believe it's 9 year old but still amazing with full energy
You're so welcome!

Should we necessarily specify a time range when we use perfective future in Russian as we do in English - I will have complete my task within a week/ for 3 days/by tomorrow ?
Thank you Antonia for your videos . I' m so eager to improve . "Я учила не выучила" когда я была в университете between 1993-95 . May I tell you that "Yesterday I had read " doesn't seem appropriate to me if it isn't followed by for example ... : the phone rang . Why not say : I was reading ... When I was at the university, the teachers told us there are only two tenses in English : Past and present and two aspects and modals . Thank you for your work . Пока Антоня !
My Russian name is Антонина ;) Two tenses in English, really? :)
@@AntoniaRomaker Definitely ! I was taught that way . That is the combination of these tenses present and past and aspects be-ing and have-en which give us all the possibilities . I think listening to you I am understanding the questions I was asking myself at that time and perhaps Imperfective is just like be-ing and perfective : Have-en . However in English there are also simple present and simple past which are used to enunciate and in the case of past action is done . What do you think of it ? Just think of it ! Special thoughts of my teacher of grammar who passed several years ago . Я очень рада если помогаю бас . Пока Антонина !
@Ivan Нет Пожалуйсто почитайте меня, вы поймете .
@Ivan Простите меня . Я не понимала . Я учила Русски язийк два года, двацать семь лет . мой кот Иван ! Правда
@Ivan Я учила ангийский язык двацать два года не Русский язык . Простите я вас не понимаю .
Hi there , few months ago asked some questions about aspects and I think Ive got more of those questions heh :) Here are some cases that I wondered what/which aspect I should be using.
Negative sentences in the future and past. Lets assume that we're playing some game. We are not going to win eventually , so what I would say is " эй парни , не старайтесь , мы все равно не сможим выиграть эту игру" or " мы не можим выигрывать " . Which one is correct? That example was on future and here is a past tense example that I want to find out the answer- вчера я собаку не кормил/покормил. May its imp. since you said its used to describe unfinished things . Thank you :)
Мы не можем выиграть - present
Мы не сможем выиграть - future
Вчера я собаку не покормил.
Вчера я собаку не кормил.
Both are possible. In the first one u just underline the idea of a finished action and in the second you talk about just a fact.

Lhawga hope it helps ;)
Hello could you please tell me why sometimes some verbs are preceded by imperfective but also by perfective?. I've noticed that in many websites Russians use the verb хотеть, they use it in perfective and in imperfective, so this confuses me a little bit because i'm not sure which aspect i should use. Would it be correct to say я хочу читать эту книгу? Or should i say я хочу прочитать эту книгу?
Hello Antonia,, please make a video for aspects in infinitive and in imperative cases. they're quite abiguous to me! (( thank you!
imperative is not a case, but declension. Verbs have infinitive form and don't have cases.
Dear teacher, could you please suggest some way to classify HCB-CB pairs in to groups for easily remember? For example, when CB=HCB+prefix, when CB=HCB+infix...
I am not familiar with the acronym, what does it stand for?
I see, несовершенный вид. For now I don't have any ideas about creating such groups, but if I do later, I'll make a video about it ;)
Have you uploaded video on если бы,
I need it , because my exams are coming ,pls reply as soon as possible
I guess I was too curious about the aspects... now I feel kinda sorry for my brain xD but this won't stop me to learn more :) great lesson :D btw I'm a new subscriber :)
This is almost always the same as indefinite and perfect tenses in English.
As far as I remember in English there are also two aspects - common and continuous
Well, actually there are only three tenses in English too. The Simple, Continuous, Perfect and Perfect Continuous are merely aspects.
As a foreigner, I can tell you that I never think about them - and I speak fluent English and got straight A's during my English classes with the highest possible difficulty.

The present tense is NOT used for the past in English, in fact that is a standard learner mistake ("I am living here for 3 years"). The point about the perfect continuous in English is that it runs from the past into the present but it does not denote the present tense alone. "I have been living here for three years"
thanx for this video, it is very good and useful for me☺️😍
Antonia - Let me know, what sort of verb can i use after "можно" : imperfective or perfective ? Ex - можно мне купить эту книгу или можно мне покупать эту книгу ? (in this case) Please.
'можно мне купить эту книгу', because you are interested in the result, not the process. Both types can be used, the logic is generally the same as in the difference between perfective and imperfective verbs.
Dearest Antonia, i thank you very much ! I was four days thinking about it ! Two days I d`ont sleep ! God bless you always !
Thanks my Teacher
Is there a video on verbal aspect of the imperative?
I don't understand what you mean...
For example, we should usually use the perfective imperative for giving an order to someone, and the imperfective form of the imperative for telling someone NOT to do something. Read this! "прочитай это" Dont read this! "Не читайте это". But sometimes the forms are the same if Im telling someone to do something, or NOT to do something, yes? Also, I can say "посмотри" or "смотри" if im telling someone to simply "look". I haven't found an answer to this and Russian speakers can't explain it.
Сделай это (perfective) - do this.
Не делай это (imperfective) - don't do this.
Не сделай это (perfective ) This sentence doesn't sound correctly.
very useful thank you!
+noseporquien You are very welcome! ;)
Isn't it so, that in English there are three tenses too? And the Simple, Continuous, Perfect and Perfect Continuous are just aspects as well as perfective and imperfective in Russian.
More or less the same, but in English a little bit more complicated in some way ;)
Great video :)
thank you! :)
Dear Antonia , The main problem and question is how the 12 tenses in English have been covered in the Russian language through the time line using only 3 tenses ??? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I Study that there is 5 tenses in Russian (cosidering Future Simple and Future Compound ) using HCB and CB but I am still confused .
Which one is the fifth then? As for Future Simple and Future Compound you are right ;)
@@AntoniaRomaker HCB Past and CB Past and Present in addition to Future Simple and Future Compound ( Total 5 tenses)
Добрый день! Помогите разобраться! Я все таки не понял поечму "I had read" а не просто в прошедшем времени. Всегда думал что для того чтобы употребить past perfect нужно иметь одно произошедшее событие перед другим?!
+Stanislav Maltsev не обязательно два действия, может просто быть обозначен момент, к которому действие закончилось, этого достаточно
Спасибки большое! И еще вот интересуют какие-нибудь материалы или книги где граматика английская объясняется через сравнение с русской (схожести или различия)
+Stanislav Maltsev книги я такие уже ооооочень давно не использую, поэтому мне сложно что-либо стоящее посоветовать.
Вы смотрите видео на моем втором канале, где я объясняю по-русски? Там я сравниваю с русским, конечно - ua-cam.com/channels/PoiV2uNarbet_bYAd-SopQ.html
Круто! Спасибо!
ochen horosho!
+Mathias G спасибо большое! ;)
How can something like "understand" be perfective? Do you then completely understood something, oder what?
I'd say, it is rather about understanding during some time (up to infinity) vs understanding as such without any time duration marked. "Perfective" to understand means that somebody has understood smth, "imperfective" version means that somebody understands smth in time (which is like a continuation of the perfective form's meaning). Both of these forms imply that understanding is complete, but one is about complete understanding for some time, while the perfective rather tells about the very first moment of complete understanding.
DeadnWoon Well, thank you very much for the explanation. :)
