Forecore I.mena nouns serve as the names of people, animals and answer the question who?(student, mentor, entertainer, peer).

Inanimatenouns names serve as non-living objects, as well as objects of plant world and answer the question what? (Presidium, Conference, Landscape, Rowan). This also includes nouns type names. group, People, Crowd, Flock, Peasantry, Youth, Devora etc.

The division of nouns on animated and inanimate mainly depends on what item is a noun denotes living beings or objects of inanimate nature, but completely identifying the concept of irresistentness-inanimateness with the concept of live-inelate. So, from a grammatical point of view bereza, Osin, Elm - Nouns inanimate, and from a scientific point of view these are living organisms. In grammar names of dead people - dead, dead man - are considered animational, and only noun dead body- Inanimate. Thus, the value of inanimate animance is the category of purely grammatical.

• at adhesive The noun forming case of a multiple number coincides with the form of a multiple pidewall form:

(V.P.N.ch. \u003d R.P.N.ch.)

r.P. (no) people, birds, animals

• in inanimate The noun forming case of a multiple number coincides with the form of a nominative case of a plural:

i.P. (Eating) Forests, Mountains, Rivers

v.P. (see) Forests, Mountains, Rivers

In addition, at the luminous nouns of male genus II decline, the accusative case coincides with the genitive also in the singular, in inanimate - with the very famous: i see a student, moose, crane, but detachment, forest, regiment.

Most often, animational male and female sorts are animational. Among the nouns of the middle kind of anima little. It - child, face (in the meaning of "man"), animal, insect, mammal, creature ("living organism"), monster, monster, sorrow and some others.

Nouns animated and inanimate

To a large extent, the concept of "animated", "inanimate" coincide with the domestic idea of \u200b\u200blive and inanimate. "At the same time, under the living object, apparently, it is understood as an object capable of independent movement, to independent actions" *. So, the names of people, animals, birds, fish, insects (and mythological living beings - centaur, Cyclops, Argusetc.) grammar attributes for animate noun; names of objects, phenomena, processes, events, etc. In the overwhelming majority of cases belong to inanimate nouns. The grammar meaning and the basis of this division is that in animated and inanimate nouns of one type of decline, different forms in the visionerate case of a plural. In the first, it coincides with the form of a genitive: "I saw friends (\u003d No friends), Familiar girls(= No friends girls), strange animals (\u003d No animals) "** (at the words of a male race not on -and I This coincidence is also in the singular: "I saw brother" (= not brother)***. The second shape of the vinitive case of a plural coincides with the form of the nominative: "I saw new houses, schools, buildings (= houses, Scale, Buildings built) "**** (in the singular difference between animated and inanimate nouns manifests itself only at the words of the male race -and I).

* ICKOVICH V.A. Sketches of the syntactic norm. M., 1982. P. 87.

** Therefore, the fallacy of the shape of the vinitive case of the plural is the following case: "All of them [Birds] are found on the nude, Malnaya Earth various seeds and soil insects"(Ned. 1975. No. 16).

*** The forms of the vinitive case of the only number in the contexts below are incorrectly selected; "How soon we can right here in the bay, grow in the cages to the kizhch.? "(KOMS. Ave. 1984. 15 Apr.);" Everywhere in the kingdom of animals The sense of maternity can transform devoid of sublimation animal"(Ned. 1975. No. 16).

**** The names of mushrooms are also related to inanimate nouns ("dry podberezoviki", "marinate oily"), Therefore, a journalist was mistaken, writing: "[oysteries] in their appearance and taste remind oh"(KOMS. Ave. 1985. March 19).

Exceptions violating the indicated pattern, very little. These include: 1) the names of chess and card figures (are animated): "beat valet", "Substitute queen under the blow "; 2) nouns dead, dead, dead man, dead, drowning, remove (are animated in contrast to the word corpse); 3) noun doll, Traditionally attributed to animate (Read more about him below), as well as nouns puppet, Parsley (varieties of dolls).

The names of microorganisms and embryos are two forms of visionerate case: bacteria, bacillus, amoeba, embryo, krill, germin, larva. In general practitioner, these are inanimate words. Cf. Sustainably in the newspapers of the urexual nature: "Constant bad weather, squalls, fog convert krill in a kind of invisible "(Very. M. 1966. 11 Oct.);" Attack on virus"(Week 1964. 18-24 Oct.);" tamed virus"(Ave. 1984. March 28). In professional speech, they are used as animate.

Variants of the form of a vinitive case of the word being: "[Outlooking a foreign film] The reserve with unique species of ancient plants and animals is the place of inhuman experiment on nature. Here" create " creaturesextraordinary force, endurance ... "(owl. Ek. 1984. No. 23); and:" These exciting characters - they were reminded at the same time and legendary creatures and familiar persons "(translated by Yu. Kalugina Roman J. Amanda" Wonderland ". - In. Lit. 1972. No. 2).

Everything that has been said about the semantics of the nouns and associated with the form of a vinitive case, referred to the direct values \u200b\u200bof words. However, the close relationship of the concepts "really live" - \u200b\u200b"animated", "realistic non-life" - "inanimate" is detected and in the portable use of words. So, inanimate (in the literal value), nouns are transferred to a discharge of animate in those portable values \u200b\u200bwhen they denote a living being. Wed: "Badkov collects star"(Mosk. New. 1981. 2 Aug.);" [Governor] said the spectacle to the nobles so that they chose official persons not for the hypocritical, but according to merit "(L.T.);" Slelly medicine planes, invited medical sveTI"(KOMS. Ave. 1989. June 3).

The exception is only the words forming the nominal azocommatic adjective model + noun: head Sadovaya(light head etc.), coffin sliced, cut off, wide nature etc. (Such phraseological units in the "Russian phraseological dictionary" ed. A.I. Molotova over 50.) For the vinitive case of nouns in these phraseologizams, the form coinciding with the form of the nominative one is characteristic. For example: "The youngest daughter was expected to be the same fate, i.e. years of sixteen go out for some whited sepulcher"(Mr.SUP);" Never came Arin Petrovna to the idea that a minute may come when she will be " excess Rot"(S.-S.);" Now Italy demands to punish the perpetrators. Whether the hand will rise by the Italian justice on cash bags."(Moscow. Ave. 1963. Oct 12).

As for the nouns, in the direct value of the living creature, then the overwhelming majority of them with a portable use to indicate a non-living object also change their discharge, i.e. become inanimate. The form of a vinitive case that coincides with the form of the nominative, has nouns in a figurative value, which serves as the name of the printing authorities, enterprises, sports teams, societies, sports figures, mechanisms, devices, modern games, kids kits, etc. For example: "- if he has already invited you to" Sailor", – I continued Marina ... - then you will make a wonderful newspaper together "(paust.);" But with the onset of the new year, even closure to the castle popular " Duckling"[pool]" (Len. Pr. 1988. 7 Jan.); "Chemist" took the capital " Spartacus"(KOMS. Ave. 1989. 12 Apr.);" began for gymnastics, for all jumps, swallows Bridges and racks "(Kav.);" Saburov looked up and saw ... Two-body artillery spotter"(Sim.);" ... It is difficult to describe the surprise of American tankers when they saw our " Muscovites"And" Lada "(space. Ave. 1990. March 15);" At any time, everyone can look into the hubby, drink a seagull ... Play chess or in " erudes"(KOMS. Ave. 1983. 5 Oct.).

Some of the discharges of the nouns that are used are portable in relation to a non-living subject, retain the morphological properties of their direct value, i.e. Animate. These include: 1) the names of items depicting a living being; Toys *, sports shells, figures, items in games **, items of decoration, prizes, awards, (usually as part of phrases), sculptural images: "Making a plush bear", "Jump around horse", "Buy king", "Set marble slonikov", Activate "GOLD coo bear", "see Pushkin"(" Pushkin Monument "); cf. Also:" On a high Kolymah, we were lucky wooden lion The prince-papa nikita zotov was sat down on it, "(A.N.T.); 2) the names of traditional games in the form of the singular:" Play goatin rooster in king in pododynny fool", "play chizhik". (The names of the same modern games, sets for games, etc., as well as the names of traditional games, but in the form of a plurality are noun inanimate: "Play in erudes", "play soldiers in cossacks robbers, in mother's daughters"Etc.); 3) names of literary, musical, etc. works:" Listen " Evgenia Onegin", "look " Chapaev"; 4) names of animals, birds, fish, etc. as a dish used by expression L.A. Bulakhovsky," one by one ":" Froken goose", "to order sudak in Polish "(but:" kili.", "be in love sardines"; cf. Also:" ... Pani sama cooked fried leeches with goose blood "- A.N.T.); options for shape words raki.: literary standards allows and "eat, love rakov"And" is, love raki."(the singular noun cancer Used only as an animated); 5) the names of the courts (in impossible use): "Anyone who saw" Comrade"At least in the picture, it can not help but feel that this handsome ship ... It seems the alien from the world of legends" (crowns); "Arkhangelsk meets" Sedova"(Izv. 1984. July 8); in the proposed structures, the literary rule allows options: the type of" cadets rushed to " Sedova"And on" Sedov"; 6) The names of the assigned rank, awarded the Order (colloquial):" Assign lieutenant", "to give Alexander Nevsky"; 7) nouns on Hotel With the meaning of what makes an action or intended to carry out an action called by the motivating word: "Under each rise of ancient imagination, it is easy to open it pathogen And this pathogen is always - the desire of people to facilitate their work "(MG);" Each sulfur or phosphorus atom, which is part of a living matter, constantly changes its media"(Mosquitoes) (but:" see carrier rocket", Since words on -Thedenotatic mechanisms are inanimate); 8) Word the character In the plural (literary standards permits and accusative inanimity): "[Jean-Paul Belmondo] already in those days made the audience to accept it characters Contrary to those who believed in the eye "urgentness" (sov. Ek. 1983. No. 19).

* Noun doll, According to the current literary standard, it can be used both as inanimate with the verb manager corresponding to the semantics (which directs attention to the fact that this is a toy, i.e. item): "She was engaged in painting, and in addition, did the dolls" (Erenb. ); "She sews me rag dolls" (owl. Ros. 1970. 11 Apr.).

** Pawn, Rye, Tour - Inanimate nouns, as they are not transported by the names of living beings.

The listed categories of nouns, preserving animate in the designation of a non-living subject, are words that are called something, i.e. Have nominative function. However, as animate is also used by those nouns that act in the nominative function, serve as a figurative characteristic of objects, the figurative designation of their role, state, position, etc. Wed: "The car returned with a bunch of sneakers. Zaitsev ... Together with the technician imposes payments on your" handsome"(Mosk. Ave. 1971. 20 Feb.);" And those who offend green friend [Trees, shrubs], should be reminded about the law "(Michur. Ave. 1979. 17 Apr.);" A few words about the first Soviet climbers who won Lord sky"(KOMS. Ave. 1982. On May 6);" The Siberian Ice Class Rescue was made through a meter for a meter to "Sabska" and "combat". By the end of the day, eliminating their own problems, the diesel-stroke "Victor Vasnetsov" came to the rescue. Two and a half days they beat for " comrade", I got into trouble "(Ave. 1987. 19 Feb.). Using an expressive tool, attributing signs of signs, actions, etc. Live being (" The car returned "," defeat the Lord of the sky "," the courts beat "and t. d.), referring to a non-living subject as a living ("offend a green friend"), the authors of the contexts given (and similar) contexts are logical, naturally use the accusative case of animation.

But in cases where in the context of any sensible verbal support, the accusative animation is nevertheless justified, if the expressive means (about whose form of the vinitive case is spent) refers to copyright metaphors, metonyms, etc., since in The consciousness of the native speakers, they traditionally communicate with a living, actively acting by the creature. For example: "One of the air flows and listed" aliens"[Balloons] on Australian Earth" (KOMS. Ave. 1987. 4 Jan.).

As for those expressive tools that do not belong to individual-copyrighted, they do not associate in consciousness with the characteristic of only a living being, then the context plays a crucial role in the motivation of the choice of a visionary case. So, if in one degree or another, the idea of \u200b\u200bpersonification is developing, the accusative animation is justified. For example: "Now, on the turnover, it takes the fourth place in the city, having missed himself ahead of himself only recognized giants" Living Dvor ", DLT and" Passage "(Vene. 1972. 4 Feb.);" And this variety is able to "give birth" and Such giants "(Mosk. Pr. 1964. 6 Feb.). Examples of a different kind:" Designers are developing new metallurgical giants"(Ave. 1971. March 21);" Create such gianti had to go for the first time "(KOMS. Ave. 1965. 5 Jan.). Vicious inanimity acts here in contexts where there is no support for metaphor giant, On the contrary, the nearest environment ("Develop", "create") excludes an idea of \u200b\u200bpersonification. These two types of contexts (with support for metaphor and without support) and make the justified form of a vability case of animation in the first two examples and inantence in the last two.

From the elementary school you have an idea of \u200b\u200bliving and inanimate nature. Nouns names also call objects of living and inanimate nature. And the names of the nouns on animation and inanimate are divided. But not everything is so simple. You are waiting for many interesting linguistic discoveries when you will learn to distinguish animated names from inanimate.

All noun nouns in Russian are divided into two discharges: animated and inanimate. Film names are answered by the question "Who?", And inanimate - to the question "What?"

For example, "Who?" - boy, dog, bird; "what?" - book, stone, land.

1. Indebidity - inantence - Category Grammar

It seems that everything is simple: the category of animation - inanimacy is based on distinguishing living and non-living. However, in Russian, there are no cases when grammar contradicts common sense. Enough to recall synonyms dead body and dead.

The name of the noun "corpse" is inanimate, and the name of the noun "dead" is an animation. The difference is detected only in the form of V.P. Units: i see dead man - I see the corpse, Wedway: i see an elephant - I see a chair.

In animated nouns coincide with the forms of the plural number of V.P. and R.P. (and nouns M.R. 2nd decline and form V.P. and R.P. The only number), and in inanimate - no. Inanimate nouns are coincided by I.P. and V.P. Multiple number.

See (whom?) Elephants, no (whom?) Elephants; I see (whom?) Mice, no (who?) Mice.

I see (what?) Books, no (what?) Books; I see (what?) at homeNo (what?) Houses.

An animal, animals, insects, etc. include animal nouns. In an inanimate noun - the names of objects, reality phenomena, not counted for living beings.

2. You should pay attention to

Note:

• the names of chess and card figures and names of the nouns "Dead", "Dead", as well as the names of the dolls ( petrushka, marionette) And the word "doll" itself - animational names;
• and words that call the totality of living beings: army, people, crowd, flock, students, humanity And so on - these are nouns in indefinite.

Basically, the names of the nouns of the male and female are among the animational nouns. Forcorative nouns of the middle kind in Russian a little. These include several nouns names with suffix -. monster, sorrow), separate nouns (formed from adjectives or communities): mammal, insect, animal and

nouns child, face (in the meaning of "man").

3. Typical errors

Errors in the use of the animation categories - the inase of nouns can be divided into two groups:

First - consumption of inanimate nouns as animate, for example: Everyone looked at him as ghost. Check by the formula "V.P. MN.ch. \u003d R.P. Mn.ch. ": (see) ghosts - (not) ghosts. Endings do not coincide, therefore, noun ghost -inanimate, so the proposal, according to the grammatical norms of the Russian language, should look like this: Everyone looked at him as ghost.

Second- Use of animated nouns as inanimate. For example: When he carried securities, he was given two people in the marched.Right: When he carried securities, he was given in the courtesytwo people.

Remember: in structures with composite numeral, ending on two three four, V.P. The numeral retains the form of them., regardless of the animation category. For example: The driver needed to deliver twenty three Athlete.

Study microbes or microbes? Animate nouns

1. What is an animation lion?

"The category of energilence of nouns is a grammatical expression of the opposition of living and non-living, but understood not in the scientific plan (in the sense of living and inanimate nature, that is, an organic and inorganic world), but in terms of household, life."

(Yejkova N. A. A brief dictionary of the difficulties of the Russian language. 6th ed., Act. M., 2008.)

2. How is an animation express?

"Firstly, an insecurity is expressed by the end of the noun:

1) animate Nouns have coinciding endings of a plural number of vinitive case and a genitive case, and for nouns for nouns, it applies to a single number;

2) inanimate Nouns have coinciding endings of a plural number of vinitive case and a nominative case, and for nouns for nouns, it applies to a single number.

An animation has I. empty Expression: The end of consented with the nouns of the adjective or communion in the vinegenial case varies depending on the animation or inanimacy of the noun, Wed: (see) new oh Pupils, but new y Tables».

(Litniewskaya E. I. Russian language. Short theoretical course for schoolchildren. M., 2006.)

3. When are fluctuations and options arise?

"All oscillations between grammatical animation and inantence (detecting in the variable education of the vinitive case) are explained by ambiguity in assessing the object as a living or non-living.

Some of such cases relates to those objects whose belonging to animals or plants may seem non-obvious: amoebs, bacteria, bacillos, vibrines, viruses, infusories, microbes and etc. ( study microbes and microbes).

The second typical case is the name of those living beings that we tend to perceive first of all as food: squid, shrimp, mussels, lobsters, trepanga, oysters and etc. ( absorb Ostritersand oysters).

Another clear case - the names of non-living objects imitating living beings: snake (Paper), Doll, Puppet, Robot, Sphinx and etc. ( make dolls and dolls)».
