    That bicycle analogy was amazing
    And like you said, "language is a skill", so treat it like trying to learn how to ride a bicycle
    Nobody reads a book about how a bicycle works to learn it, you just need to practice again and again and again until you know how to ride it without falling
    Thank you very much for this video

    You are THE MAN ,I’m studying Russian at university and I found myself left behind cause I couldn’t understand how cases work and what are their purposes,and honestly this is the only video I found that explains that rather than just listing the cases and pretending I can memorize them all. Thank you so much

      To understand is not enough. The main thing is to use them correctly using endings. I'm afraid it's impossible over all conversation. But there are good news as well, cases don't change common meaning of sentence just it sounds incorrectly. Something like "they doesn't .." or " he has done it yesterday". It was about nouns. As for pronouns just to memorize their case endings by heart. It's important.

    congrats Denis, you are unique in your field. The only reason why I remain hopeful about learning Russian is your way of explaining things...... you understand the art of putting yourself in our shoes and see things through our eyes. I 'll never forget the way you explained how to pronounce this dreaded ы sound......I struggled with it for years until you showed the placement of the tongue simply by using the movement of your finger : THE eye-opener of the year!
    This video is likewise of great beauty in its simplicity. Cannot thank you enough

    • @DenisFedorov
      @DenisFedorov  Před 7 lety

      There is a variety of endings in Russian + the same word can have different endings depending on a lot of things (gender, form, case, tense).

    To me it's always been easier to place similar cases together, the most common being nominative/accusative, genitive, dative, etc since this makes it easier to learn, especially when nominative and accusative endings are identical, as they tend to be in Latin, German and Russian. What obsessive grammarian thought it was a bad idea in the first place remains a mystery to me!

  • @lutchbizin6420
    @lutchbizin6420 Před 6 lety

    Yes, learning the declension of nouns is the hardest part in Russian. Besides, there are lots of exceptions. Take for example the genitive case of plural nouns! Another very intriguing aspect is the stress on nouns as there are many different stress patterns. Polish, for instance, also has a very complex noun declension. However, the stress in the noun ending is always the same. So Poles will speak Russian stressing the same syllables all the time. The result is that they sound very wrong and even unintelligent, although they decline Russian nouns well...So stress plays a very important role in Russian, but teachers don't teach it on a regular basis.

      @@DenisFedorov I have a question please. I'learning German now and one of the difficult thing I face with German, is that some verbs and nouns do have multible meanings and sometimes the meaning of the verb changes when they add reflexive '''sich'' to the sentence. Does Russian most verbs in Russian have multible meanings? or does the verb meaning change with different cases? Thanks
