A Grammar of the Russian Language

"A Grammar of the Russian Language" is a 1889 work by W. R. Morfill. William Richard Morfill FBA (1834 - 1909) was Professor of Russian and allied languages at the University of Oxford from 1900 to 1909. He was the first such professor in Britain and wrote many books on the subject, including "Simplified Grammar of the Serbian Language" (1887), "The Story of Russia" (1890), and "Slavonic Region" (1904). This is a fantastic and comprehensive introduction to the Russian language not to be missed by those interested in learning it. Contents include: "The Alphabet", "Accent", "Formation of Stems", "Nouns", "Formation of Words", "The Noun", "To Stems", "O-Stems, A-Stems", "U-Stems, B-Stems", "H-Stems, C-Stems", "T-Stems", "P-Stems", "Adjective: Definite", "Indefinite", "Comparison of Adjectives", "Cardinal", "Ordinal", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition for the enjoyment of readers now and for years to come.
