Russian verbs-everything you need to know

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 11, 2022

Verified Purchase

This book's coverage on the intricacies and content of Russian verbs is encyclopaedic. It is a splendid reference book for all translators and students of Russian literature, and absolutely should be part of their bookshelf. Incidentally, reading through this book confirmed my initial opinion, in the course of my own years beginning to learn this language, how complicated and dense its grammar is. Are these grammatical rules all memorized and obeyed by all Russian native speakers?

Better Verb Usage

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 24, 2008

Verified Purchase

I have been studying Russian for 10 years. Anyone from Beginner and up will find this book useful. It is very good in showing motion verbs - uni-directional & multi-directional. It can be used to find a pattern for any regular verb not already listed in the book. It is especially useful in finding the irregular forms. The 501 title is a misnomer. If you know the verbs in this book you will be able to confidently speak conversational Russian. The layout of the pages provides a clear and concise understanding of the relationship between the Perfective and Imperfective forms. Each entry provides the accents which are so important to clear speech. There is a dictionary in the back of the book which allows you to find words. Used in concert with 5,000 Russian Words (another publication) and Katzner's Russian/English dictionary you are well equipped to learn and translate from either English or Russian.

Great Tool for Russian Learners

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 2, 2018

Verified Purchase

I’m going through my first year of Russian and this book is a godsend. Perfective, imperfective, and proper conjugation for both makes 501 Russian Verbs a great tool for anyone learning the language. The example sentences are marvelously morbid - just enough so that you keep reading to find out why, exactly, we ran in horror.

(As far as I can tell, there is no reason for the running or the horror. These are merely themes that seem to visit random pages throughout the book.)

Helpful supplement

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on March 15, 2011

Verified Purchase

This book has come in handy, especially for the reflexive verbs. Yes I know that you should be able to conjugate regular verbs on your own, but guess what, sometimes I need to double check whether I've spelled the word correctly. It's especially useful for the reflexive verbs, which I usually forget how to conjugate. I would've liked to see more example sentences and accents. I know accents are not used in "real life", but as a beginner, I need to know where to stress the accent.

Love this book!

I'm studying Russian and this book it a lifesaver! Verb conjugation in any language can be tricky, but especially when using a different alphabet. I use this book daily, and recommend it to anyone learning Russian.

Excellent reference.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 30, 2013

Verified Purchase

Excellent reference. Easy to use. I used it to look up words as I used Rosetta Stone and found it extremely helpful. Excellent supplement. I found it useful when I was new to the language, but now that I know how to conjugate verbs, this book is even more helpful. It was difficult to use as an absolute beginner but still useful. But as an intermediate user, which I am now it is incredibly useful. I can lok at the conjugations and see the patterns clearly.

Doesn’t Make Me Bored

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 12, 2017

Verified Purchase

This came way earlier than expected. This book is pretty thick, and there were lots of silly sentences used as examples with the verbs, such as “Let’s go on a chocolate diet”. It’s informational and not boring. This book is amazing. Just buy it already.

This is simply a reference book to be used when wanting to conjugate verbs. Well set out and clear, it is perfect for intermediate and expert Russian learners. Not worth buying if you are a beginner and or do not wish to take the next step in learning Russian.
