Question

How to recognize Russian cases?

Answer

Hi! You can recognize Russian cases by their function (for example, the Prepositional case denotes a place and the Accusative case denotes a direction) and their ending. There are endings which are typical for each grammar case, they depend on the part of speech (noun, adjective, numeral, pronoun, etc.), the number (singular or plural) and the type of declension (soft-stem or hard-stem) For example, the Instrumental case can end in ом or ем if we decline a masculine or neutral noun in singular number.
