The alternation of vowels in the root of the word touch. Handbook of Russian Language

The topic of alternating vowels in roots causes confusion among schoolchildren. To remember all the alternations, you need to cram the rules, remember the exceptions, and do the exercises regularly.

In this article you will learn spelling rules, find exercises for alternating vowels in the root and answers to them.

Vowel alternation

In general, the letters also alternate. One morpheme can appear with different letters.

Vowel alternation is a feature of some roots that changes the vowel depending on certain factors. In other words, two words with the same root can have different vowels. For example, the word zag A r has the letter "A" at the root, and the word zag O say the letter "O".

This seems incomprehensible to schoolchildren. It seems that the words have the same root, but the roots are different... If you don’t want to get confused and make mistakes in exercises on roots with alternation, then read on our article.

History of Alternating Roots

Where alternation came from in the Russian language is not entirely clear. It is believed that the tradition of the language first appeared, that is, the habit of writing that developed over the years. For a long time, people wrote the way they liked, so words with the same root had different vowels. When linguists decided to streamline the language and subject spelling to rules, the alternating roots had to be left as they were used to seeing them.

Philologists constantly discover roots that they did not know before. The base of exercises on roots with alternating vowels, which students have to solve, is also being updated.

There are several factors that influence the spelling of alternating letters:

  1. consonant following an alternating vowel;
  2. accent;
  3. suffix;
  4. semantic meaning.

Spelling of vowels A-O: adjacent consonant

The alternation of "A" and "O" depends on all four factors. You need to remember which roots depend on which indicator.

The following roots depend on the adjacent consonant: lag-lozh, skak-skoch, rast-rasch-ros.

After “G”, “K”, “ST” and “SH” write the letter “A” at the root. After "F", "CH" put the letter "O" at the root.

For example: location ah to be located - to be located cool to be assumed ah at - assume cool it (but gender og), sk ak at - sun very good it. (but sk ah ok, sk ah y), p A sti - nar A to grow - to grow O merger (but p O drain, negative A sl, R O stov, r O stockman)

Spelling vowels A-O: stress, suffix

From accents six roots depend, alternating: plav-pilaf, zar-zor, pay-poy, gore-gar, clone-clan and tvor-tvar.

In an unstressed position in the roots -pl A v-, -z A p-, -p A th - write the letter "A".

For example: s O rka - z A rya, prip O th - p A yka, pl A vat (but s O roar, pl O vec, pl O sneeze).

In unstressed position in roots -r O r-, -tv O r- and -cl O n- put the letter "O":

For example: zag A r - zag O roar, TV A ry - TV O rhenium, cl A bother - bow O thread (but bulge A rki, prig A ry, utv A ry).

The roots kas-kos, lag-lozh depend on the suffix . If there is a suffix “A” after the root, then write the letter “A” at the root.

For example: to A With A to be - to O dream, exc. O live - forever A appropriately .

Spelling vowels A-O: root meaning

Only two roots depend on the semantic meaning: equal-even and mak-mok. In meaning, they are more likely to be different roots than two variants of the same root. However, they are considered roots with alternating vowels.

Root p A vn is used in the meaning “to equalize, to become equal.”

For example: ur A heed the rights, wed A attentive analysis.

Root p O vn is used in the meaning “to level, to make even.”

For example: other O heed (bangs), cf O get down to earth, p O vesnik Exceptions: p A vnina (r O obvious), p A opinion (become p O obviously).

Root -m A k- is used in the sense of “dipping into liquid.”

For example: prom A swipe with a napkin, m A drop cookies into tea.

Root m O k means “to let liquid through.”

For example: prom O beat to the bone, deputy O Wash your shirt before washing.

Vowel alternation A-O

Try to test your knowledge by solving exercises with answers to alternating roots.

Alternating vowels e-i: spelling rules

Spelling is determined using one indicator - the suffix "A". If there is this suffix after the root, then we put the letter “I”. If there is no suffix, then we write the letter "E".

It is necessary to memorize the roots in which such alternation occurs. Namely: ber-bir, der-dir, mer-mir, per-pir, ter-tir, shine-blist, zheg-zhig, steal-steel, even-cheat.

For example: zab e ret - forget And R A yes, come e rushing - coming And R A yes, deputy e rli - deputy And R A no, zap e r - zap And R A yes, no e rsya - you And R A yes, bl e stit - bl And st A oh yeah e g - vyzh And G A ut, post e pour - dist And l A subtract e t - calc And T A t.

Exceptions: op. e T A t, op e T A tion.

Vowel alternation E-I

Test yourself by solving exercises with roots alternating “E” and “I”.

1. The glass is blowing, the stars are melting, mushrooms are gathering, toys are falling, dying with laughter, dying from admiration, otp(_) they open the door, open the gate, wipe the face, wipe the dust, pull out the tape, pull out the teeth; flex(_) muscles, twitch(_) tail, remember(_) about household chores, pronounce spells.

Glass bl e stit, stars bl And melt, mushrooms And paradise, personal e root toys, mind And heaven with laughter, deputy e r from admiration, ot e break the door, otp And the gates are opening, e rub your face, prot And they're throwing up dust e rip off the tape, yep And teeth are rotting; size And hiring muscle And tail wagging And they nag about household chores, pronounce the vow And knowledge.

  • -equal -//- equal- ( With equals itcharactersunder exactly make a garden bed).
  • Roots with alternating vowels: table and examples

    The root is the basis of the word, carrying the main lexical load. It is the most stable morpheme in the language: the basic vocabulary of any natural language dates back to ancient times. During the existence of a language, phonetics, syntax, grammar, and writing may change beyond recognition, but the root system is quite conservative. And it is by the root composition that such things as the relationship of languages, foreign influences and much more are established.

    With all its stability the root of the word also undergoes changes over time, and traces of these changes are present in the language; The Russian language is no exception here. Below we will talk about such a phenomenon as alternating vowels in the root of a word. In science, this phenomenon is called ablaut.

    In Russian, ablaut is a historical phenomenon. There are quite a lot of words with him. And if we are dealing with an unstressed alternating vowel of the root, then we cannot use the school rule, according to which the vowel must be stressed in order to find out which one to write. It is even more difficult for people learning Russian as a foreign language, because in many cases that are obvious to a native speaker (that is, there is no unstressed vowel at the root, there is an accent), a foreigner has to remember a non-standard model of word formation or inflection.

    Origin of alternating vowels in the root of a word

    Where the roots with ablaut come from in the Russian language is a vast topic and deserves a separate article. The reasons for this phenomenon will be summarized below. But I would like to note that the process continues: it currently exists in phonetics, despite the fact that the spelling norms of the Russian language have long been fixed.

    This is interesting: proverbs about family and family values ​​for grade 5.

    So, where does the Russian language have alternating vowels at the root of words?

    Sometimes several factors worked together, for example, in words X reap, reap, reaper, P pressing t Such diversity is fundamentally a consequence of both the disappearance of nasal sounds and the decline of reduced ones.

    Spelling roots with alternating vowels

    Be that as it may, in the Russian language there are about thirty words with ablaut, where native speakers themselves make mistakes. Those people who read a lot have the least problems with spelling: the graphic image of a word is not separated from the word itself, and therefore they do not need to know the rules. For the rest, we will try to create a summary table, where we will try to classify the types of alternation at the root and their spelling. The table is also useful because it will help in spelling precisely unstressed vowels at the root.

    very cool site)

    Yes, Maria, I agree with you.

    very cool site, just thank you so much!!

    Thanks a lot! Best educational site!

    very cool site

    Thank you so much! Helped a lot)))

    I searched, but didn’t find a connection with the admin or moderator of the page, so I’ll write in the reviews. The table is good, however, it can be improved. Write in front of the table how to identify words with alternating vowels in their roots. I searched for a rule for a long time and had difficulty finding something that clearly explained it. In the roots -gor- -gar-, the word exception is not written - vygarki, the stress falls on the 1st syllable, but is written in the second -gar-.

  • A crime is characterized by a form of behavior. What is a crime. Comments on the law Article 14 of Chapter 3 of the Criminal Code states: 1. A crime is recognized as a socially dangerous crime committed […]
  • 12. Roots with verifiable vowels. In order not to make a mistake in the spelling of an unstressed vowel, you need to change the word so that this vowel is stressed: povr e child — vr éd, teacher A fuck — teacher A there, prib. I well — prib. I no.

    Note. When applying this rule, remember the following:

    a) Vowels after sibilants and ts are written on the basis of special rules (see paragraphs 9, 10, 11).

    b) The spelling of an unstressed vowel cannot be checked using imperfective verbs -yat , -ive , in which under stress instead of the root O happens often A : Tue O bird — Tue A peek, n O sit — n A sew, and so on.

    13. Roots with unverified vowels. The spelling of vowels in many words cannot be checked by stress: With O tank, V O bastard, V A trash and etc.; You should look up such words in a dictionary and remember their spelling.

    14. Roots with alternation O — A. To spell some roots with alternation A — O The following rules should be noted:

    a) At the root braid — cas (braid nudge — cas get on) is written A -A- : cas-a-tsya, cas-a-telny, at- cas-a-tsya, But: at- braid-well, at- braid-n-ovenie.

    b) At the root lodge — lag (before lodge it — before lag at) is written A , if the root is followed by a suffix -A- : from- lag-a-th, WHO- lag-a-th, at- lag-a-body, But: from- lodge-ing, WHO- lodge-it, at- lodge-ing.

    c) At the root clone — clan (By clone — clan to be) under stress can be and O , And A O : on clone yat, on clone come, With clone education, By clone education.

    d) At the root creation — creature (creation quality — creature b) under stress can be and O , And A , but without accent it is written only O : creation ez, with creation go, creation education.

    d) At the root mountains — gar (mountains eat — behind gar , on gar ) letter A happens under stress; written without accent O : mountains education, behind mountains at, behind mountains there are, behind mountains fir.

    f) Root float — pilaf spelled with a letter O only in two cases: pilaf ec, pilaf sneeze, in other cases it is written A : With float lie, float Nick, By float OK, float ounce (bug), float teaching(Remember the word pl s Woons subsoil layers saturated with water).

    g) At the root zar star (dawndawndawn) without stress is written only A: h A rya, s A rnitsa, s A roar, oz A bark, oz A rhenium.

    h) At the root growth height (grow - grew) without emphasis before st And sch is written A (ext. A style, age A st, nar A becoming, growing up A puppy, wed A tion); before With without follow-up T is written O (ext. O s, exp O sshiy, vodor O sly, nedor O sl).

    Exceptions: p O drain, r O stockman, R O stov, R O stislav; negative A sl, neg A left.

    i) Root equal- It is mainly written in words that are related in meaning to “equal” (“same”): R A numbered, R A pre-valued, Wed A understand, all R A clearly, and also in the words: R A opinion, R A pay attention, R A listening, since then A got involved, R A vnina; root exactly It is mainly written in words related in meaning to “even” (“smooth”, “straight”), for example: R O heed(tracks), other O heed(flower beds), etc., ur O ven, R O yay.

    Unstressed root vowels are usually divided into checked, unchecked and alternating. Each of these groups has its own characteristics. In our article, we will find out the distinctive features of unstressed alternating vowels of the root (and under stress), and decide on their spelling.

    Concept

    When different vowels are used in the same root, which does not change the lexical meaning, then these vowels are called alternating (ugar - burn out).

    In different words, alternating vowels are in a strong (stressed) position and without stress.

    Unlike the unstressed vowel being checked, the alternating vowel is not checked by stress: it depends on it. Under the stress, you should write the vowel that is perceived by ear. In general, to correctly write alternating vowels, you need to remember the corresponding roots and the rules for choosing vowels in them.

    Spelling

    Let's describe rules for choosing alternating vowels . For each of them we give examples of unstressed alternating vowels of the root word or under stress:

    • Roots in which the vowel depends on the stress:

      gar - gore (stressed “a”, unstressed “o”: fume, burn), zar - zor (stressed “a” or “o”, unstressed “a”: dawn, dawn, dawn), clan - clone and creature - creation (stressed “a” or “o”, unstressed “o”: bow, bow, worship; creativity, creation);

    • Roots in which the vowel depends on the suffix:

      birA - ber, dirA - der, tiRA - ter, pirA - per, mira - mer, zhigA - burnt, stila - stel, blista - sparkle and spinner, chitA - even (if after the root -a-, then write “and” : take away - I’ll take away, light up - set fire, shine - sparkles), kaSA - braid (if after the root -a-, then we write “a”: touch - touch);

    • Roots in which a vowel depends on the following consonant:

      GROW, RASCH - ROS (overgrow - increase - grown up), jump - jump (jump - jump), LAG - LOD (offer - offer).

      Exceptions: industry, sprout, Rostislav, moneylender, Rostov; I'm jumping, jumping, jumping;

    • Roots in which the vowel depends on the meaning of the word:

      equal - even (“a” in words with the meaning “identical”, “o” in words with the meaning “straight”: equated, equation - even, level), mak - mok (“a” in words with the meaning “dip, immerse” into something”, “o” in words with the meaning “to let liquid through”: dip - get wet).

      Exceptions: level, plain, peer, equally.

    Over the past decade there have been significant changes in spelling dictionaries. This also affected words with alternating vowels. So earlier zarevat (zoryanka) was an exception and was written with an “o”, but now the recommended option is with an “a” (zarevoy).

    Pivot table

    To make it easier to memorize roots with alternating vowels, they are collected in the table below:

    What does it depend on
