Words that end with y. Insidious soft sign after hissing

Soft sign b.

The soft sign b does not denote sounds (like the hard sign b) and performs several service functions:

separating function,
designation of softness of a consonant in writing,
indicator of grammatical forms.

Separating soft sign.

b as a separator is used after consonants before letters e, e, u, i, i. :
sem b i [s'em ‘th’ A], l b et [l ‘th’ from], to b south [in ‘th’ ugh], solov b and [salav'y'i], ant b i [ant ‘th’ a], rye [rye y'u].

After the prefixes b is never written

b separates the preceding consonant and consonant sound [th'](- always sonorous, always soft), suggesting the appearance of a sound [th'].
I salt[sal'U] cabbage soup salt[sal'y'u].
I dust with dust.
Kolya carries stakes.
At first field, Then field.

Attention! A solid b sign separates prefix ending in a consonant, from the root to e, yo, yu, i, A soft sign used in other cases.
In some borrowed words before -He:

mailed b he, battle b he bool b he, pavilion, medallion, champagne b He.

Non-separating soft sign.

The designation of the softness of a consonant (except for hissing).

b denotes the softness of consonants (except hissing) at the end of a word:
they say b, roll b, fifth b, lantern b.
At the same time, the softness or hardness of the consonant at the end of the word determines the words that are different in meaning:
tol - roofing, corner - coal, weight - all, clear - ash, ate - spruce, dan - tribute.
in the middle of the word b means:
- softness of a consonant before a hard consonant:
  Kuz b ma, cos b ba, pis b mo, fell b ma;
- b is written between two soft consonants, only if, when the word changes, the second consonant becomes hard, and the first remains soft:
Kuz b me (changed the word - Kuzma so that m becomes solid), braid b be (mowing), in pis b me (letter), na pal b me (palm tree);

For example, gwo zd and [gvOz'd'i] soft sign is not written - gvo zd oder, where z is a solid sound.
consonant softness L before any other consonants (not L):
ma eh chick, bo eh shoy, bo eh nitsa, mo eh Bert.

Soft sign - spelling rules

The soft sign is one of the two letters of the Russian alphabet that does not convey any sound. It serves to indicate the softness of consonants in writing. It so happened in the system of the Russian language that all consonants can be divided into soft and hard.

Moreover, some phonemes can be realized in different words both as soft and as hard, for example:

Cake and termite: the phoneme "t" in the first word is realized by a hard sound "t", in the second - by a soft one; cobra - whale, badger - white, mask - bear, etc.

However, there are phonemes that are always:

a) Only solid ones: "g", "w", "c". These phonemes do not have paired soft ones;

b) Only soft: "h", "u", "d". These phonemes do not have paired solids.

The rest, as mentioned above, can be both soft and hard - it all depends on the words in which these phonemes are realized.

In writing, the softness of consonants is indicated in two ways:

a) Writing after them letters denoting vowel sounds, “i”, “e”, “I”, “yu”, “e”;

b) Writing a soft sign after them.

So, the soft sign is used to indicate the softness of the consonants preceding it in writing.

There are three main positions:

At the end of the word: horse, notebook, stump, read, write out, horse, seven, etc.;
In the middle of a word before a solid consonant: letter, cobalt, carving, mowing, I will take, Vyazma, shooting, quite, etc.;
After the soft consonant "l" before all other sounds in words like: it hurts, velmi, boy, finger, you can't, etc.

Note. The dividing soft sign is written before the iotized vowels "e", "ё", "yu", "i" not only to separate the preceding consonant from the iota, but also to show the duality of these vowels. For example, in the word "blizzard" the separating "b" performs both functions: it separates the consonant "v" from the consonant "y" following it (iota) and indicates that the letter "u" here conveys two sounds at once: "y" and "at". The same applies to the words "loach", "courier", "family", "gun", "sparrow", etc.

The soft sign is not written in the letter combinations “chk”, “ch”, “nch”, “nsh”, “rsh”, “shn”, “st”, “nt”:

Daughter, night, donut, bricklayer, debater, assistant, bridge, candy wrapper.

Note. The soft sign is written in some words of foreign origin before the vowel "O":

Bouillon, battalion, guillotine, companion, minion, pocket, pavilion, postman, champignon.

However, in the word "julienne" a soft sign is written before the "e". The spelling of such words just needs to be memorized.

When to write "b" after sibilants in nouns, verbs, adverbs and particles

In Russian orthography, there are several cases when a soft sign is written after hissing consonants "g", "w", "h", "u" in nouns, verbs, adverbs and particles. Let's consider them in detail.

b after sibilants in nouns

After hissing consonants "b" written not to soften them. After all, consonants "u", "h" do not need this, being unpaired soft consonants. And the consonants "g", "sh", on the other hand, are always solid. This means that the soft sign that is written after the hissing consonants is a morphological sign, that is, a marker for designating nouns feminine of the third declension, for example:

help, thing, power;
grief h b, speech h b, trifle h b, lye h b;
brooch, wasteland, gouache, wilderness;
rozh, bliss, lies, hall.

the spelling of which is distinguishable from masculine nouns of the second declension:

comrade sch, ivy sch, ovo sch, bor sch;
violin ch, death ch, circus ch, feces ch;
kamy sh, myaki sh, small sh, shala sh;
guard, sea, wagon, beach.

Soft sign after hissing in verbs

Verbs in the form 2 of the present tense, the indicative and imperative moods of the singular and plural are written with "b" after hissing consonants:

you sing, cut, draw, draw;
cut off - cut off;
hide - hide;
eat - eat.

In the indefinite form of verbs, after hissing, there is always a soft sign:

save, take away, help, renounce.

In adverbs

Adverbs require writing a soft sign after hissing:

to fall backwards, to endure unbearably;
open the window wide;
forget completely, let the horse run;
hit backhand, it happens all the time.

Exception words: already, married, unbearable.

At the end of particles

At the end particles "shish", "bish", "wish", "only" also write a soft sign.

Look how smart you are!

Only the stars looked into the sleepy pond.

when you write "b" sign after hissing help please (daughter writes)

You did not specify what part of speech you are interested in, and the soft sign at the end of words may or may not be written in nouns, short adjectives, adverbs, verbs and particles.

Look at a tablet from the Internet, where almost all the rules for writing b after hiss are well represented.

I draw your attention: it is impossible to say that after hissing b is written at the end of feminine words and is not written at the end of masculine words. This is INCORRECT, because the words DACH, KRUCH, TASKS, CLOUDS are feminine, and b is not written in them, since these are words of the 1st declension in the genitive plural. And the words schools, rods do not refer to either the feminine or the masculine gender - they are neuter nouns in the genitive plural, and b is not written in them either.

CORRECTLY formulate the rule like this:

A soft sign after words hissing at the end is written for nouns of the 3rd declension and is not written for nouns NOT of the 3rd declension, that is, 1st and 2nd (examples in the table).

AT the end of adverbs after hissing b it is written, except for the words UZH, MARRIED, UNBELIEF.

At the end of verbs after hissing b is always written and is stored before the reflexive suffix -СЯ and before the ending imperative mood-TE: watch out - watch out; you decide - you decide, smear - smear, smear.

And at the end of short adjectives after hissing b is never written (examples in the table).

To the rules presented on the plate, it should be added that there are particles SHEE, ONLY, BE, union ONLY, at the end of which a soft sign is written.

Spelling of the soft sign

Letter soft sign as a sign of softness

The letter ь is written to denote the softness of a double consonant at the end of words, For example: dove, leave, notebook, dirt, pity, seven, horse, kitchens, apple trees, embankment, beast, paint, drink, shipyard.

Letter b , which ends the first part of a compound or compound word, is written to indicate the softness of a consonant before any letter, vowel or consonant, that begins the second part, for example: village executive committee, village council, salvage materials, bone salvage, robbery army, quarter-century, quarter-final, Dalenergo, Svyazinvest, Tyumen?nefte.

To indicate the softness of a paired consonant before consonants, the letter "b" is written in the following cases

1. After letter l before any consonant except l , For example: shooting, leonine, foil, ice floe, glide, a few, no whitewash, bedroom, carefully, scalpel, waltz, little coat, flatter, April, alpha, alder, mirror, boy, more, flattered .

Between two l a soft sign is not written, For example: goofy .

?sk? consonant l before the suffix - soft, so after l spelled b , for example: rural, Ural, Barnaul. However, in some adjectives formed from non-Russian proper geographical names, a firm l, and therefore b not written, for example: Kyzyl, Yamal(along with options Kyzyl, Yamal).

2. After other consonants:

a) before letters that convey hard consonants, for example: carving, take, earlier, nanny, letter, request, very, induce, witch, wedding, darkness, threshing, pah;

In most adjectives with the suffix ?sk? consonants n And R before the suffix - solid, therefore b they do not include, for example: horse, Kazan, Tyumen, knightly, January, Jaeger. However, in the following adjectives, these consonants before the suffix ?sk? soft, in them after n And R spelled b : day?day, june, september, october, november, december, as well as in many adjectives formed from non-Russian proper geographical names on uh, For example: Tien Shan, Taiwanese, Phnom Penh, Torun, Sichuan, Tianjin. Nouns formed with the suffix ?ts? from the same geographical names: Kazanians, Tyumen, But Taiwanese, Phnom Penh, Torun and so on.

b) before letters that convey soft consonants, b it is written only in those cases when in other forms of the same word or in words with the same root, the second soft consonant becomes hard, and the first consonant remains soft, for example: take(cf. I'll take), eight (eighth), witch (witch), in the dark (dark), carving (thread), mowing (mowing), wedding (wedding), threshing (threshing), earrings (earrings), skates (skates), uncle (uncle).

3. In other cases, after the letter that conveys a soft consonant, b is not written, For example: unless, prisoner, gnaw, bones, carry, syndicate, review, early, pension, bow, if, song .

Letter b not written in consonant combinations LF, NS, in particular before suffixes ?chik, ?schik, ?chin(a), for example: nurse, dandelion, cup, tip, chick; bricklayer, bathhouse attendant, partisanship, Ryazan region.

The letter "b" as an indicator of grammatical form

Letter b written (regardless of pronunciation) in the following grammatical forms:

A) in complex numbers before ?ten And ?hundred: fifty, sixty, seventy, eighty, five hundred, six hundred, seven hundred, eight hundred, nine hundred;

In numerals fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen before ?eleven b is not written.

b) in the indefinite form of the verb (infinitive) before? Xia (same as in the infinitive of verbs without ?Xia), For example: bathe, have, pour, split, put on shoes, wash, laugh;

V ) in the imperative mood of verbs before ?Xia And ?those(same as in forms without ?Xia And ?those), For example: set off, weigh yourself, back up, sit down, stand up, quit, meet, check ;

G) in the form of the instrumental plural of nouns , For example: people, horses, doors, children, as well as in the instrumental form of the numeral four .

After w, w, h, w letter b traditionally written in the following grammatical forms:

A) at the end of nominative/accusative singular feminine nouns of the 3rd declension , For example: rye, whim, mouse, falseness, night, trifle, thing, help;

b ) at the end of the 2nd person singular of present and future tense verbs (after w ), For example: carry, laugh, see, give, rush;

V) in imperative forms of verbs , For example: smear, eat, hide, cut, comfort, hide, don't wince ;

G) in the indefinite form of verbs (after h ), For example: bake, cut, crush, get carried away, burn yourself .

The letter ь after hissing is also written at the end of adverbs and particles , For example: wide open, all the way, backhand, jump, back, unbearable, away, completely, you, only, you see, you see. Exceptions: letter b not written in adverbs married, unbearable, in a particle already, as well as in the preposition between .

The letter ь after hissing is not written at the end of the following grammatical forms:

A) nominative / accusative singular masculine nouns of the 2nd declension , For example: knife, ball, ladle, raincoat;

b) genitive plural of feminine nouns of the 1st declension , For example: puddles(from puddle), clouds, galoshes, groves ;

V) short forms masculine adjectives , For example: fresh, good, good, poor.

A soft sign is one of the letters of the Russian alphabet that does not have its own sound. It cannot be pronounced phonetically, but despite this, it is significant and plays a very important role.

The history of the soft sign

At the stage of the birth of the great and mighty Russian language, our familiar soft sign was used as a very short version of the letter And. Over time, the soft sign lost this purpose, but, like the letter And, continued to soften the consonant in front.

In the Cernovian Slavic dialect, the concept of using the letter b almost the same as in traditional Russian, with the exception of some details. Firstly, in Church Slavonic, the soft sign, contrary to the rules and canons of the Russian language, is written after the hissing letters at the end of m.r. nouns. (bucket, guard). Secondly, a soft sign in Church Slavonic was written at the end of any short passive participles (see, hear).

In some cases, it was permissible not to put a soft sign between consonants where it should be. For example, instead of the word dark could write tma, and so on.

Soft sign functions

We all know that consonants are soft and hard. Some consonants are always soft, and some are softened by other letters. For example, iotized vowels soften the hard consonant that precedes them. The soft sign performs exactly the same function as these vowels - it softens the consonants in front of it:

softens the front consonant;
performs the function of separation in words before iotized vowels and vowel O in borrowed words;
does not carry a special phonetic load, but retains the grammatical form in some words (mouse, dry land, wilderness).

Let's look at a few special cases where a soft character can occur in the middle of a word.

Soft sign between two consonants

Example: horse ki, bathhouse, golf f, polka, hospital, coal.

In this case, the soft sign simply softens the consonant in front. Rule: a soft sign in the middle of a word is not written between consonant combinations schn, schk, ch, chk.

Soft sign between consonant and iotized vowel (separating)

Example: trees, logs, pickles, learning, monkey, bindweed, necklace.

In this case, the soft sign softens the consonant in front. The iotized vowel is decomposed into two sounds .

A soft sign can stand not only in front of iotized vowels.

Example: broth, champignon, canyon, medallion.

Most often this happens in foreign loanwords.

How not to make a mistake with writing a soft sign in the middle and end of a word?

A soft sign at the end of a word is needed in order to soften the consonant in front.

Examples: coal, salt, moth, tulle, pain, prowess, calm, scrap, teacher, password.

Sounds h, w, sh according to the canons of the Russian language, they cannot be soft a priori, but in some cases a soft sign can be placed after them. It does not soften the consonant in front, but is needed to preserve the grammatical form. Let's see in what cases this can happen:

Feminine nouns (rye, silence, mouse).
Verbs in all forms (drain, save, build, wash).
For adverbs ending in h And w(backward, completely) and one adverb on and(wide open).

When you do not need to put a soft sign after hissing:

Masculine nouns (reeds, garage, guard).
(good, pretty, fresh).
Adverbs for and except wide open(impatient, married, already).
Feminine nouns in the genitive plural (pears, clouds, heaps).

A little about transfer

How to hyphenate words with a soft sign in the middle of a word? This is worth considering separately. Words with a soft sign in the middle of a word often cause difficulties when you need to move the word to another line. And there are many mistakes of this kind in the texts.

The transfer of words with a soft sign in the middle is carried out as follows: first you need to divide the word that you want to transfer into syllables. Remember that there are as many syllables as there are vowels in a word.

Step 1 Example: monkey.

It is important to remember that when transferring a word with a separating soft sign to another line, it is impossible to separate the soft sign from the consonant in front - the transfer should be carried out only with it.

Step 2 Example: monkey(an example of a correct transfer).

An important detail: if a soft character is located at the end of a word, it cannot be transferred to another line.

Wrong example: mother-in-law, love, bear.

Correct example: mother-in-law, love, honey-because.

When transferring, you cannot leave one letter on the line. This rule applies not only to words with a soft sign in the middle of a word, but also to any others.

Exercises

Soft sign in the middle of a word. 1 class.

1. Underline those words in which the soft sign softens the front consonant:

Weeds, elk, fire, trees, salt, monkey, stakes, flat, letter, sable, deer, strong, trill, medallion, spruce forest, crane, horse, family, days, coat, caramel, judges, blood, love, nightingales, troublemaker, gimp, cortel, imposing.

2. Enter a soft sign where it is needed:

Quiet_, reeds_, heard_, garage_, sleeping_, rozh_, courage_, mirage_, stove_, cut_, married_, good_, beach_, guard_, guard_, already_, wide open_, unbearable_, beach_, backhand_, shore_, carried away_, rook_, solid_.

3. Perform a phonetic analysis of these words (words can be given to children in variants or each child can be given an individual word):

Portiere, backstage, expanse, sommelier, barrier.

TSYA and TSYA - which is correct?

Unfortunately, many people make a mistake in this seemingly elementary spelling. How do you know what to write at the end of a verb?

You just need to ask a question to the verb. If the verb answers the question "what to do", a soft sign is put. If the question is "what does it do?" - soft sign is not needed.

Example: get out (what to do?), agree (what to do?); show off (what to do?).

Removes (what is he doing?), agrees (what is he doing?), flaunts (what is he doing?).

The soft sign is probably the most mysterious letter in the Russian language. It does not denote a sound, it is not classified as a vowel / consonant. Why is she needed then? It turns out that its role in our writing is great. In this article, we will figure out when “b” is used after hissing with nouns, adverbs and verbs.

Nouns. Soft sign after hissing consonants

The exact spelling of the soft sign after these consonants is the most difficult, since it is not clear by ear whether it should be written or not.

It turns out that the rule is very simple: a soft sign after hissing in it. noun written only in the words of women. gender belonging to the 3rd declension.

The words “oven”, “speech”, “daughter”, “night”, “game” are feminine, have the nominative case and are in the singular. Therefore, we must certainly write “b” in them.

But be careful: they should not be confused with the words of the 1st declension, which are in oblique cases: “many clouds”, “no tasks”, “several heaps”. All these words, it would seem, are feminine, and, probably, they should be attributed to the 3rd declension.

But let's take a closer look: they are in the genitive case. If we raise them to the initial form (“cloud”, “task”, “heap”), then we will make sure that they belong to the first declension, which means that they do not obey this rule.

There is another "trap" in Russian, where in no case do they use a soft sign after hissing ones. Words ending in a hissing consonant, but related to the second declension, are not written with "b" ("rook", "doctor", "cloak" - 2nd declension). Therefore, be more careful when asking the question to the noun. Do this before determining the declension, since the gender depends on it. noun, and number.

When do we write "b" in adverbs?

An adverb is one of the invariable parts of speech. It is not declined, there are no endings in it. Spelling "b" in adverbs lends itself to not at all difficult rules.

In those adverbs that end in the consonant "sh" or "ch", a soft sign is always written. For example: "jump", "exactly".

In adverbs for "zh", it is never written. The exception would be the word "wide".

Another rule that the adverb obeys: a soft sign after hissing is always used, with the exception of “already”, “married”, “unbearable”. Undoubtedly, such a comic sentence is easily remembered by schoolchildren, especially girls.

It is not so important which rule you remember, the main thing is that both reflect the essence of the spelling of adverbs.

Verb and soft sign after sibilants

The verb is one of the most used parts of speech, without which our language would be very poor. Spelling "b" with verbs causes a lot of difficulties not only for students, but also for adults.

If the verb in the indefinite form (infinitive) ends in sibilant, then "ь" in this case will always be written. And here without any exceptions. "Protect", "bake", "burn". It will also be preserved in a returnable form, before the postfix “-sya”: “get carried away”, “ignite”, “beware”.
All 2nd person singular verbs use a soft sign. This applies both to the present: (“you are now”) “writing”, “drawing”, “walking”, “sleeping”, and to the future: (“you are tomorrow”) “work”, “think”, “finish ”, “remake”. The soft sign will be preserved before the “-sya” postfix: “you will like it”, “you will use it”, “you will touch it”, “you will type it”, “you will take shape”. In verbs that are in the imperative mood and end in a hissing consonant, they always write a soft sign: “cut off”, “eat”, “spread”, “hide”. Before the plural postfix "-te", it must be preserved: "mark", "cut", "hide".

Before the postfix “-sya”, it also does not disappear: “comfort yourself”, “do not cut yourself”.

And again, be careful and do not fall into the "trap" of the insidious Russian language! The words "cry" and "cry" are completely different parts of speech, and therefore are spelled differently.

“Crying” without a soft sign is a noun of the 2nd declension, and, accordingly, a soft sign cannot be written in it. But “cry” with a soft sign is a verb of the imperative mood, and, as you know, we always write “b” in them. All this is easily guessed by the proposed context, in which the meaning of the word will become clear.

Conclusion

A soft sign after hissing is used with many parts of speech. Knowing the simple rules, you will never encounter the problem of spelling it after these consonants. If suddenly you forget some of the nuances, then our article will remind you of them.

Although the letters b and b by themselves do not represent any sounds, they are written in order to pronounce words correctly. Compare, for example: a seed (without a soft sign) and a family (with a separating soft sign). To remember when to write a soft sign and when to write a hard sign, you need to learn the following rules.

The dividing b is written inside the word (in the root or suffix, but not after the prefix) before the letters E, E, Yu, I, I (blizzard, weeds, fox), as well as in some borrowed (foreign) words before the letter O (broth , signor, guillotine). A soft sign usually softens the consonant sound that precedes it and, in addition, makes us pronounce an additional sound [Y].

The letter ъ is written only before e, e, u, i in the following cases:

1. When combining a prefix ending in a consonant and a root, for example: entrance, volume, supernatural, will, inter-tier.
2. In compound words after numerals two-, three-, four-, for example: three-tiered.
3. In foreign words after foreign prefixes ab-, ad-, dis-, in-, inter-, con-, counter-, ob-, sub-, trans- and after the initial compound particle pan-, for example: adjutant, disjunction, injection, injection, conjuncture, counter-tier, object, subject, trans-European, pan-European.

Examples of words with separator ъ

Congress, entrance, departure, departure, volume, pre-anniversary, express, expression of will, phenomenon, embrace, immense, furious, supernatural, filming, ruffle (hair), cringe, clarified (sky), unite, announcement, edible, lifting (crane).

Bilingual, three-tiered, four-tiered.

Adjutant, injection, conjuncture, object, subject, trans European, pan European.

Examples of words with separator ь

Health, happiness, it’s pouring, it’s beating, it’s viet, it’s winding, it’s south, seven I, another sparrow, flakes, a play, a barrier, linen, a diamond, a storm, a wind, an interview , fox and, gun yo, naughty me, crawler, drink yo, drink, friends, serious, Tatyana, Mary, we sew, sew yo, pour out, monkey, night yu, leaf I, tree I, bird and climbing plants, in the hive, atelier, zealous (worker), (speak) yu, (own) thing yu.

He is a battle, he is a postman, he is a broth, he is a pavilion, he is a companion, he is a medal, he is a minion, he is a mushroom.

Task: write down 20 words each with a separating hard and separating soft sign.

Filming, entry, traveled, entrance, announce, separation, announcement, explanation, congress, notorious, lift, leftovers, embraced, cringed, pre-anniversary, explain, squabble, eat up, furious, edible.

Lukomorye, curl, flakes, chickens, blizzard, Tatyana, monkey, serious, barrier, sparrows, linen, dress, hare, rural, trees, animals, consent, happiness, family, girlish.
