I would like to present here a simple tool I am working on. It should help to study Russian :) I guess, one of the problems of this language is rich morphology, which is especially hard for English speakers. The tool is a morphology analyzer/generator that allows to do two basic things: - to input a word and to see its attributes (part of speech, gender, case, etc.) - to set some attributes and to see the corresponding word forms.
This is not an advertisement, as this tool is free, and will remain free while I am working on it ;) This software is still far from being complete/perfect, so I'd be happy to get some valuable feedback... and also I have some future plans to turn it into something more powerful. ( more details here )
stepstomarrow When granddaughter, Jada, was born with leukemia, a donor-match was located and Jada made a miraculous recovery. In honor of her grandaughter's health, Jeanna has decided to walk across the country (in the dead of winter) to raise awareness and build support for the bone marrow registry (all that's required is a cheek swab). Follow Jeanna's remarkable journey as she travels the United States by foot.
If I want to say something like "I see the man who is reading all by himself," what case would I put on один? Would it be something like
Я вижу человека, читающего одного
Or would the сам need to be dative, as it sometimes is in embedded clauses:
Я вижу человека, читающего одному
Or are both correct? Or is neither correct? I am particularly interested in the case relation between the participle and один, so if there are better examples to illustrate it with, please let me know what they are.
