1. Compound nouns formed with connecting vowels, as well as all formations with aero-, air-, auto-, motorcycle-, bicycle-, cinema-, photo-, stereo-, meteo-, electro-, hydro-, agro-, zoo-, bio-, micro-, macro-, neo-, for example: plumbing, farmer, flax harvesting, steam locomotive repair, airport, aircraft carrier, rally, motorcycle race.

But if the word don is used in the sense of "master", it is written separately, for example: don Pedro.

Note 2. The articles and particles that make up foreign surnames are written separately, without a hyphen, for example: von Bismarck, le Chapelier, de Coster, de Valera, Leonardo da Vinci, Lope de Vega, Baudouin de Courtenay, von der Goltz.

Note 1. Between the word being defined and the one-word application in front of it, which can be equated in meaning with an adjective, a hyphen is not written, for example: handsome son.

Note 2. If the word or application being defined is itself written with a hyphen, then a hyphen is not written between them, for example: Social Democrats Mensheviks.

Note 3. The hyphen is also not written:

a) in combination with a common noun followed by a proper name, for example: the city of Moscow, the Volga River, the frisky Masha;

How to write adverbs correctly - together, separately or with a hyphen? This article presents all the rules for writing adverbs, as well as exceptions to them. For greater convenience, several illustrative examples are attached to each rule.

Separate, continuous and hyphenated spelling of adverbs depends on the features of the formation of the word (with which prefix and from what part of speech it is formed), as well as on the features of use in phrases and sentences.

Continuous spelling of adverbs

Slitno the following adverbs are written:

  • with prefixes in-, on-, for- and suffixes -o, -e, -and ( examples: lightly, briefly, easily).
  • with prefixes from- / is-, to-, from-, to- and suffixes -a / -i, -i, -y / -yu formed from adjectives, pronouns or adverbs (because, white, kinda).
  • with prefixes on the-, in- formed from full adjectives (blindly, closely, directly).
  • with prefixes in-, on- and suffixes -om / -em, -o / -e (two, three, five).
  • With prefix on-, formed from adjectives in the comparative degree (cleaner, better, softer).
  • Formed from other adverbs using prepositions (down, everywhere, the day after tomorrow). Exceptions: for after, for today, until tomorrow, in the morning.
  • If the adverb starts with forward-, forward-vpri-, at once-, vza-, vna-, navy-, full- (squat, half-hearted, mixed). Exceptions: in addition, in addition, in a cast, in replacement, in an inclination, in mockery, to choose, to learn, to gain, to grow.
  • If the adverb contains nouns or nominal forms that are not used in modern language (waddle, surreptitiously, obliquely).
  • Semi-continuous spelling of adverbs

    semi-solid, that is, through a hyphen, adverbs are written:

    • With prefix on- and suffixes -th / -him, -ski / -ki, -i (our way, masculine, wolf-like).
    • With prefix something and suffixes something, something, something formed from pronominal adverbs (somewhere, somewhere, somehow).
    • with prefixes in-/in- and suffixes -th/-their, formed from ordinal numbers (second, fourth, tenth).

    Separate spelling of adverbs

    Separately adverbs are written with prepositions and particles:

    TOP 4 articleswho read along with this

    • with prefixes in, without, with, under formed from adjectives or nouns that begin with a vowel (downhill, tirelessly, close-fitting).
    • With prefix on and suffixes -o/-e formed from collective numerals (three, four).
    • with prefixes in-, on- and suffixes -ah/-ah formed from nouns (in the heads, on the lynxes, on the joys).
    • If there is an explanation for the noun from which the adverb is formed, or a definition can be inserted between the preposition and the noun (at the beginning of the road, during the game, at the very end of the book).

Spelling compound words

The basic principle of continuous and separate writing is the selection of words in writing. Parts of words are written together, words are separated by spaces. The application of this rule is hampered by the fact that word combinations and whole words are not always clearly opposed in the language (for example, combinations with the particle not and words with prefix not?, combinations of nouns with prepositions and adverbs formed from such combinations).

There is a third type of spelling - hyphenated, or semi-fused. A hyphen can separate a word into parts (for example, firebird, light green, in a new way, because of, all-in, first, someone) and, conversely, combine parts of a phrase (for example, science fiction writer, cunning-cunning, out of the blue, out of the blue, two or three).

The main rules of this section are divided into general and related to individual parts of speech.

The formation of complex nouns occurs by combining several (usually two) independent parts into one semantic whole. Their role can be played by various parts of speech, both independent and official. Their display on the letter has its own characteristics. We will talk about how to write such words today.

First, let's talk about what options exist. A complex noun in Russian can be written either with a hyphen, or together, or separately. The principle that lies in the distinction between these options is the selection of words in the letter. Words are separated by spaces, and their parts are written together. However, the application of this rule has its own peculiarities. The fact is that in the language whole words and their combinations are not always clearly contrasted. Therefore, in addition to separate and continuous spelling, there is a semi-continuous, or hyphenated. The hyphen serves to separate words into parts (for example, the firebird), or combines parts of the phrase into one whole (fantastic writer). After reading this article, you will learn how to write a particular compound noun correctly.

Consolidated spelling

Words that are formed using connecting consonants are written together. This includes all education auto-, aero-, air-, cinema-, moto-, photo-, auto-, electro-, meteo-, stereo-, agro-, hydro, micro-, bio-, zoo-, neo-, macro. There are many examples, here are just a few: flax harvesting, farmer, plumbing, airport, motorcycle race, car race, photo essay, electric motor, bike racing, macrocosm.

Compound nouns are written together if they are inflected and their first verbal part ends in -i. Examples: derzhiderevo, adonis, turnip, dzhimorda, hoarder, flirtatious, daredevil.

Hyphen

A complex noun should be written through a hyphen if it has the meaning of one word and it consists of 2 nouns used independently, connected by vowels e or o. Examples: boy-woman, firebird, cafe-restaurant, diesel engine, major general, prime minister, Buryat-Mongolia. Note that in this case, when the word is declensed, only the second noun changes.

The following examples apply to this rule: purchase and sale, reading room, saw-fish, good boy, Moscow River. However, in these cases, both nouns change in declension.

In addition, the names of political directions and parties that are constituents, as well as their supporters, should be written through a hyphen. Examples are as follows: social democrat, social democracy,

Complex units of measure

Hyphen spelling is correct if we are dealing with complex units of measurement. It does not matter whether this compound noun is formed with a connecting vowel or not. Examples: kilowatt-hour, ton-kilometer, man-day. However, there is an exception to this rule - this is the word workday, which should be written together.

Other cases of hyphenation

Let's continue to consider the spelling of compound nouns. A hyphen should be put in the case of the names of foreign and Russian intermediate cardinal points. Examples: northeast, northeast etc.

Through a hyphen, combinations of words are written that have the meaning of nouns if these combinations include:

a) verb used in personal form (flower love-not-love, plant Dont touch me);

b) union (plant Ivan da Marya);

c) preposition ( Komsomolsk-on-Amur, Rostov-on-Don, Frankfurt am Main).

Foreign language elements often have their own characteristics. Their use in various rules is often negotiated separately. In our case, the hyphenated spelling of complex nouns is correct if their first component is foreign language elements non-commissioned, chief, vice, headquarters, ex-. Examples include the following: life medic, ex-champion, vice president, headquarters.

Spelling of compound nouns, the first part of which is half-

If the first part of a compound word is floor-(meaning "half"), followed by a noun in R. p., which begins with the consonant " l" or with a vowel, then the hyphen spelling is correct. Examples: half an apple, half a turn, half a lemon. In other cases, compound nouns are written together. Examples: half an hour, half a meter, half a room. However, if after floor- it will be appropriate to use a hyphen if you have complex nouns in front of you. Examples: half of Europe, half of Moscow. Words that begin with semi-. Examples: semicircle, half-station, half a verst from the city.

Application Highlight Features

If the word being defined is immediately followed by a single-word application, a hyphen should be placed between them. Examples: Anika is a warrior, Masha is a quickie, an old mother.

If a one-word application, which can be equated in meaning with an adjective, follows the word being defined, the hyphen is not put. Example: handsome son.

If the application or the word being defined is itself written with a hyphen, it is not placed between them. Example: Social Democrat Mensheviks.

Russian compound surnames

Compound surnames should be written through a hyphen, which were formed by adding two personal names, that is, when complex nouns are formed when they are combined. Examples: Skvortsov-Stepanov, Rimsky-Korsakov, Andersen-Nexe, Mendelssohn-Bartholdy and others.

Personal surnames and given names combined with nicknames are written separately with them. Examples: Ants Hanger, Vanka Kain, Ilya Muromets.

Foreign compound surnames

It is necessary to put a dash between the parts of the word if we are dealing with foreign compound surnames, in which the first part St. or Saint-. Examples: Saint-Saens, Saint-Just, Saint-Simon etc. Oriental personal names (Arabic, Turkic, etc.) should also be written with a final or initial component indicating social status, family relations, etc. Examples: Osman Pasha, Izbail Bey, Tursunzade, Ibn Fadlan and etc.

However, it should be clarified that hyphenated compound names, the first part of which is Don-, are written only in cases where the main part of the name is not used separately in Russian. Examples: Don Quixote, Don Juan. However, if the word "don" means "master", it should be written separately. Examples: Don Basilio, Don Pedro.

It should also be taken into account that particles and articles, which are parts of foreign-language surnames, are written without a hyphen, that is, separately. Examples: le Chapelier, von Bismarck, de Valera, de Coster, Lope de Vega, Leonardo da Vinci, von der Goltz, Baudouin de Courtenay. Particles and articles, without which surnames of this type are not used, must be written with a hyphen. Example: Van Dyck.

It should be said that some other foreign-language surnames have their own characteristics in the Russian transmission. Particles and articles in them are written together, so that their spelling can be separate in the respective languages. Examples: Delisle, Decandole, Laharpe, La Fontaine. The spelling of compound nouns, which are proper names of foreign origin, as you can see, has many nuances. We have considered the main ones, it remains to tell only about the last.

It must be taken into account that the names of different categories are not connected by hyphens to each other, like the Russian surname, name and patronymic. Example: Gaius Julius Caesar.

We now turn to the features of displaying geographical names in writing.

Geographical names consisting of two nouns

They are written with a hyphen if they consist of two nouns. Examples: Kamenetz-Podolsk, Orekhovo-Zuevo, Heart-Stone. The same applies to words consisting of a noun followed by an adjective. Examples: Goose-Crystal,

Other cases of hyphenated place names

Through a hyphen, you should also write combinations consisting of a particle or an article with a significant part of speech. The following examples can be given: Bay of De Castries, City of La Carolina, City of Le Creusot.

The names of settlements are written through a hyphen if they include as the first part: top-, salt-, mouth- etc. The same applies to some titles with the first part lower-, upper-, old-, new- etc., except for those cases when a continuous spelling has been fixed on geographical maps or in reference publications. Examples: Verkh-Irmen, Sol-Iletsk, Ust-Abakan, Novo-Vyazniki, but: Maloarkhangelsk, Novosibirsk, Novoalekseevka, Starobelsk.

If geographical names that are compound are formed from the names of parts of a particular geographical object with or without a connecting vowel, then a dash is also put in this case. Examples: Alsace-Lorraine, Austria-Hungary. Exception - Czechoslovakia.

Separate spelling of geographical names

However, geographical names in some cases should be written separately. This applies primarily to words consisting of an adjective followed by a noun; or if the noun follows the numeral. Examples: Nizhny Tagil, Belaya Tserkov, Seven Brothers, Yasnaya Polyana.

You also need to write separately nouns if they are surnames. Examples: Erofey Pavlovich station, Lev Tolstoy settlement.

Names of cities with the second part - city or - city

The names of cities are written together if they are the second component -city or -grad. Examples: Ivangorod, Uzhgorod, Belgorod, Kaliningrad, Leningrad.

Variants of spelling

It should be noted that there are fluctuations in the spelling of some compound words that have appeared in the language recently. Examples: parking place and parking place, ton-kilometer and ton-kilometer, tonnage-day and tonnage-day. These orthographic variants are explained by the presence of connecting vowels in them ( tons-about-mileage, cars-about-place). Thus, they are affected general rules spelling It is preferable to write them together.

So, we have considered the continuous and hyphenated spelling of compound nouns. Of course, we have analyzed only the main cases. There are many nuances in this topic, so you can improve in it for a long time. However, we have presented the basic information, and in most cases it is quite enough to write correctly complex nouns.
