Spelling nn. Spelling n and nn in different parts of speech

It is written -NN-:

If the stem of the word ends in -N-

(Н + suffix Н = НН)

foggy + N = foggy

PICTURE + N = picture

If the adjective is formed from a noun ending in -mya

pla me– fiery
se me- seed

If a word is formed using suffixes

Onn-, -enn-

Exception: windy
BUT! Windless

straw + enn = straw

station + onn = station

In three words that are an exception:

TIN, WOODEN, GLASS

In verbal adjectives ending in -OVANNY, -EVANNY

Exceptions: forged, chewed.

BUT! Forged (with what?) copper chest,

Chewed (perfect form)

hand-drawn,
carbonated,
stuffed

In some verbal adjectives with the prefix not-, as well as those formed from unprefixed verbs, not perfect form(you need to remember them):

seen, given, desired, cutesy, slow, unseen, unknown, swaggering, minted, unexpected, unheard, unexpected, sacred, promised, desperate, deprived, sacred, counted

NOTE:

The prefix not- does not, as a rule, affect the spelling of -N- or -NN-: in an adjective with not- the same amount of N is written as in an adjective without not-:

Mown – unmown
examined - unexamined.

But this rule has exceptions (see above).

It is written -N-:

If the word is formed in a suffixless way

YOUNG, SPICY

In relative adjectives formed with the suffixes -an-, -yan-

leather + an = leather

wool + yang = woolen

In possessive adjectives formed with the suffix -in-

swan + in = swan

eagle + in = eagle

In verbal adjectives formed from verbs imperfect form without a prefix and without an explanatory word.

Exceptions: busy, desirable, cutesy, slow, sacred, swaggering, etc. (see above).

baked (oven)
broken (to break)

Exceptionally windy

BUT! windless

windy

(BUT! windless)

In the adjective oily, i.e. “consisting of oil”, “made in oil”, “powered by oil”

Exceptions:

forged, chewed

REMEMBER:

blued horse

living room room

hotel,

uninvited guest

called Brother ( BUT! CALLED Petey)

unsolicited guest

dowry brides

smart young man

planted father ( BUT! planted in the garden)

-N- and -NN- in short adjectives.

-Н- and –НН- in complex adjectives.

It is written -N-:

In adjectives, one letter N is written in suffixes -IN-, -AN-, -YAN-.

For example: swan(in the suffix -IN - one letter N is written) leather(in the suffix

-AN- one letter N is written) woolen(in the suffix -YANG- one letter N is written).

It is very easy to remember three suffixes in which one letter N is written. Need to know the first letter of the alphabet and the last - A and Z. We add one letter N to them and get suffixes - AN, IN, YAN .

You can learn a rhyme that will help you remember the suffixes of adjectives that are written with one letter N.

For adjectives long ago

Recorded in learned books,

When AN, IN, YAN, then N one

And no more surplus.

Suffix -IN- called “animal”. With the help suffix IN adjectives are formed from animate nouns, denoting animals, insects, birds.

MOUSE IN Y = MOUSE + IN

MOSQUITO IN YY = MOSQUITO + IN

NIGHTINGALE IN YY = NIGHTINGALE + IN

In adjectives MOUSE IN OH,MOSQUITO IN OH, NIGHTINGALE IN YY the “animal” suffix is ​​written - IN - with one letter N.

Suffixes - AN-, -YAN - written in adjectives denoting the material from which the object is made:

SKIN AN SKIN = SKIN + AN

SAND ANІ= SAND + AN

SILVER YANG YY = SILVER + YANG

WOOL YANG OH= WOOL + YANG

GLIN YANG Y = CLAY + YANG

Adjectives SKIN AN OH, SAND AN OH, SILVER YANG YY , WOOL YANG OH GLIN YANGІY are written with one letter Н, since the suffix in them begins with the letters AND I .

You should remember three adjectives whose suffix begins with the letter Y, but the letters N are written in it not one, but two. These are the exception words: TREE YANN OH, TIN YANN OH, GLASS YANN YY.

The following riddle about WINDOW:

glass surface, wooden frame, pewter handle.

2. Two letters НН in adjective suffixes

Two letters N are written in adjectives whose suffixes begin with the letter O or E. For example, EDITORS HE N OH, TRADITION HE N OH, STRAW ENN OH, CRANK ENN YY.

Remember suffix - HE N- helps with NV UN - United Nations.

It is known that suffix - HE N- - UN fan.

It strives to be as similar to the UN as possible in everything. True, the difference between them is immediately noticeable: the suffix - HE N- two letters H, and his UN idol has two letters O.

Using the suffix - HE N -, in which two letters N are written, adjectives are most often formed foreign language origin. For example, COMMISSION HE N OH, EDITORIAL HE N OH, TRADITION HE N OH, REVOLUTION HE N YY

Two letters N are written in the suffix -ENN-.

Adjectives with the suffix - ENN- most often formed from nouns whose stem ends in several consonants: ARTS ENN OH, CRANK ENN OH, LIFE ENN OH, OGN ENN OH, SICK ENN YY.

There is an exception word in the Russian language, the suffix of which begins with the letter E, but the letters N are written in it not two, but one. This word is WINDY.

WINDY DAY

WINDY YOUTH

The word WINDY contains only one letter N!

However, if the prefix WITHOUT appears in the word WINDY, then according to the rule two letters N are written.

WINDLESS NIGHT (the word has a prefix)

Remember the spelling of words WINDY andWINDLESS The following poem helps.

Windy young man, windy day!

You can easily remember:

I always write only one N!

Windless morning, day or night!

Without applying the rules of knowledge,

Write two N without hesitation!

3. Two letters H at the junction of morphemes

Two letters N are written in adjective names formed using the suffix N from nouns with a stem starting with the letter N.

PLAIN = PLAINS N A+ N

LONG= DURATION N A+ N

TRUE= TRUE N A+ N

OUTSTANDING= DIKOVI N A+ N

PANCAKE = BLI N +N

The following poetic rule helps to write the double letter N in an adjective.

Fog one has N,

But if the city became foggy,

Based on N and suffix N,

And it turns out NN,

Remember this case is strange.

4. Something to remember

There are several words in the Russian language that do not have the suffix N and suffer greatly from this. These words are often confused and the double NN is mistakenly written in them.

Remember: in words SINGLE, GREEN, SPICY, RUSH, YOUNG, PORK one letter N is written, which is part of the root.

5. Analyzing examples

Let's determine how many letters N are written in the following adjectives and why.

GUSINY(this word has an “animal” suffix -IN -, in which one letter N is written),

TELEPHONE(this adjective is formed from the noun TELEPHONE, the stem of which ends in the letter N. The suffix N is added. Therefore, we write the word TELEPHONE with two letters N),

STRAW(the suffix of this adjective begins with the letter E, so we write НН),

LINEN(the suffix of this adjective begins with the letter I and denotes the material from which the object is made, so we write one letter N),

WINDY(this is an exception word in which one letter N is written),

INFECTIOUS(the suffix of this adjective begins with the letter O, so we write НН),

GLASS(this is an exception word that is included in the riddle about the window; therefore we write NN).

6. Algorithm for writing N, NN in adjective suffixes

When choosing N, NN for writing in the suffix, you can use the algorithm.

Table 1. Algorithm for writing N, NN in adjective suffixes ()

7. N, NN in short adjectives

It should be remembered that in short names There are as many Ns written in adjectives as there are in full ones: traditional is traditional, smart is smart.

Spelling N and NN in nouns

In derived nouns n or nn written depending on the morphemes with which nouns are formed, or in accordance with the stem from which they are derived.

1. nn is written:

1) if the root of the word ends in n and the suffix begins with n: elder-nick (elderberry), druzhin-nick (druzhina), malin-nick (raspberry), swindler-nick (moshna), aspen-nick (aspen), rowan-nick (rowan); besdorn-nits-a (dowry), besson-nits-a (sleep), zvon-nits-a (ringing), log-nits-a (log);

2) if the noun is formed from an adjective with nn, or from a participle: soreness (painful), agitation (excited), hryvnia (kryvnia), power of attorney (confided), cutesy (prissy), spoiled (spoiled), izbn-ik (chosen), exiled (exiled), konn-itsa (horse), koren-ik (indigenous), larch-itsa (deciduous), accident (accidental), education (educated), obshchestven-ik (public), organization ( organized), plenn-ik (captive), possan-ik (sent), privileged-ist (privileged), proizvodstven-ik (productive), millet-ik (millet), crafts-ik (craft), sotsanny-ik (related ), sacred-ik (sacred), seminal-ik (seminal), sov-ik (own), sovrem-ik (modern), coherence (coordinated), nebula (foggy).

2. N written in words: bagryan-itsa (crimson), varen-ik (boiled), windy-ost, windy-ik, windy-itsa (windy), gostin-itsa (living room), drovyan-ik (wood-burning), konoplyan-ik (hemp) , kopchen-ost (smoked), kostyan-ika (bone), maslen-itsa (oily), wiser-ost (sophisticated), ovsyan-itsa (oatmeal), peat-ik (peaty), smyshlen-ost (smart) and etc., as well as in the words alder-nik, omshan-ik.

Spelling Н and НН in suffixes of denominal adjectives (formed from the name of a noun)

1. Nn is written:

1) for adjectives formed from nouns using suffixes -enn-, -onn-: artificial, cranberry, straw, operating, session, station and etc.; This also includes adjectives formed from nouns ending in mya (time, flame, etc.): temporary, fiery, seed, nominal, tribal etc.

In an adjective windy one is written n , since it is formed not from the noun wind, but from the verb wind using a suffix -n- , which does not contradict the spelling rule n in verbal adjectives: weathered, weathered, windswept- formed from verbs;

2) for adjectives formed from adjectives using a suffix -enn-, indicating a large measure of a sign: tall, hefty, wide and etc;

3) for adjectives formed from nouns with base on n(second -n- adjective suffix): long (length), true (true), millionth (million), ancient (antique), canvas (canvas) and etc.

Adjectives like mutton, carp, seal are written with one n , since they are formed from nouns with a stem in n by adding a suffix -j- .

Words spicy, rosy, youthful written with one n (non-derivative adjectives); in words derived from them, one n is also written: spice, ruddy, blush, youth(But: youth, since this word is formed from the combination young naturalist).

2. N is written on adjectives formed from nouns using suffixes -in-, -an-, -yang- : pigeon(pigeon), goose(goose), chicken, eagle, swan, leather(leather), sandy(sand), cereous(wax), linen(canvas), silver, wood-burning and etc.

Exceptions: glass, tin, wood.

It is necessary to distinguish between adjectives, the spelling of which depends on their meaning:

A) windy- “accompanied by the wind, with the wind” (windy weather), “frivolous” - transl. (fickle girl, youth); wind- “powered by the force of the wind” (wind engine, pump, mill); in combination chickenpox the adjective is written with a suffix -yan- , cf.: chickenpox- decomposition;

b) buttery- “soaked in oil, lubricated, stained with oil” ( butter pancakes, porridge, hands), trans. ( oily eyes, oily voice, also: Shrovetide week - Maslenitsa); oil- “for oil, from oil, in oil” ( butter cookies, Oil paint, oil engine, pump and so on.); compare: oil bottle(“intended for oil”) and buttery bottle(“stained with oil”);

V) silver- “subjected to silvering, covered with silver” (silver spoon); silver- “made of silver” (silver spoon);

G) salty- “containing salt” ( salty fish); salt- “consisting of salt” ( salt mine, salt pillar). In combination salt acid is written as a suffix on the adjective -yan- .

Spelling N and NN in verbal adjectives and participles

Full forms

Written with nn suffixes of full forms of passive past participles: -nn- And -yonn- (-enn- ). Adjectives correlative to them in form are written in some cases also with nn in a suffix, in others - with one n .

1. Written with nn participles and adjectives -ovanny, -evanny, -evanny(formed from verbs in -ow, -eat), For example: pampered, uprooted, lined, painted, organized; uprooted, spoiled, painted over, lined, reorganized.

2. Also written with nn communion not on -ovated(-evanny, – evanny) verbs perfect form and correlative adjectives; the vast majority of such verbs contain a prefix.

a) Examples of forms formed from prefixed verbs: bleached, washed, knitted, fried, written on, dyed, peeled, scolded, dyed, counted, unraveled, made.

b) A list of forms of native verbs without prefixes, as well as some verbs in which the prefix can only be distinguished etymologically: abandoned, given, finished, bought, deprived, captured, forgiven, abandoned, decided, captured, revealed; met, started, offended, acquired, obliged, visited, supplied.

Forms are also written according to this rule. two-species(having the meaning of both perfective and imperfective forms) verbs to marry, bequeath, promise, execute, give birth: married, bequeathed, promised, executed, born.


Exceptions. Are written with one n adjectives correlative with participial forms in the following stable combinations: finished man, named brother, named sister, imprisoned father, imprisoned mother, Forgiveness Sunday .

3. Participles are not on -ovated(-evanny, -evanny) verbs imperfect form(they are formed only from prefixless verbs) and the adjectives correlative with them are written differently: participles with nn , adjectives – with one n , For example: carts loaded with firewood, fish fried in oil, an oil painting, hair cut by a barber And short hair, dyed green paint benches, a floor that has not been swept for a long time, walls that have not yet been whitewashed, money that has already been counted more than once, an offer made many times; But: loaded barge, fried fish, painted beauty, cut hair, painted benches, swept floor, whitewashed walls, a few minutes, feigned indifference; similarly knitted And knitted, ironed And ironed, woven And braided, brushed And cleaned; also written: chewed And chewed, pecked And pecking, forged And forged.

According to this rule, forms of two-type verbs are written concuss, baptize And injure. Wed: a shell-shocked soldier, a seriously wounded soldier, a soldier wounded in the leg, a newly baptized baby, But: shell-shocked commander, wounded soldier, baptized child.

As can be seen from the examples, the participle is recognized by the presence of dependent words. There are, however, rare cases when the dependent word is not a sign of the participle. For example, you should write: his mustache is clearly dyed(obviously artificial, where is the word obviously used with an adjective); the walls, previously whitewashed, are now covered with green paint(walls that used to be white).

In words with the prefix not-, in compound words and in some combinations? repetitions, the forms of participles and adjectives are written in the same way as in a separate (without a prefix and not as part of a compound word or repetition combination) use .

Examples:

1. Words with a prefix Not- :

Written with nn : uneducated, unlined, untested, unfinished, unbought, unforgiven ;

Written with n : unbleached, unironed, uninvited, unforged, unfed, unpainted, unmeasured, unpaved, unplowed, uninvited, uncounted.

2. Difficult words:

Written with nn : highly qualified, fully stamped, acquired, freshly painted, purposeful, born blind, insane;

Written with n : plain dyed, homespun, finely crushed, impostor, seriously wounded, whole-cut .

3. Repeat combinations with a prefix re- in the second part, having an intensifying meaning. In them, the second part is written in the same way as the first (with nn or n ), For example:

Written with nn : mortgaged-remortgaged, resolved-resolved ;

Written with n : patched-re-patched, washed-re-washed, mended-re-fixed, read-re-read, darned-re-darned.

Exceptions. Written with nn instead of n :

a) adjectives desired, awaited and (as part of stable combinations) has it been seen before?; Is it unheard of? They are formed from imperfect verbs wish, wait And see, hear .

Special cases: adjectives put on flooded sea; they are formed from imperfect prefix verbs put on, pour out, i.e. from verbs with a suffix - va- , which do not naturally form passive past participles;

b) adjectives with a prefix not-: unknown, unseen, unforeseen, unwanted, unexpected, unexpected, unexpected, unheard of, unexpected and (as part of a stable combination) watchful eye;

c) compound adjectives long-awaited, home-grown and (consisting of own name) Andrew the First-Called.

The second parts of these prefixed and compound adjectives also correspond to imperfective verbs.

Short forms

Short forms of passive past participles are written with one n , For example: read, read, read, read; read, read, read, read; tagged, tagged, tagged, tagged; marked, marked, marked, marked. Neuter forms are also written in impersonal use, for example: smoked, polluted, driven, walked, driven-crossed, walked-crossed .

Short forms (except for the masculine form) adjectives with a qualitative meaning, coinciding in form with the passive participles of the past tense of perfective verbs, written with nn , For example: brought up, brought up, brought up(from adjective well-mannered‘discovering results’ good upbringing’); spoiled, spoiled, spoiled(from adjective spoiled‘accustomed to fulfilling one’s whims’); sublime, sublime, sublime(from adjective exalted‘full of high content’). Such adjectives have comparative forms: more educated, more spoiled, more elevated.

Compare the following examples in pairs with short forms of participles and adjectives: She was raised by a distant relative . – She has good manners and is well-mannered. She's spoiled good conditions She is capricious and spoiled.

Brief adjective forms na-ny are written with one n , if these adjectives require dependent words and do not have a comparative form. Examples: attached to someone‘attached’ – She is very attached to him; full of something‘full, imbued’ – The soul is filled with sadness; heard about something‘well-informed’ – We've heard a lot about his tricks.

Some adjectives have different meanings short forms spelled differently. For example, different spellings of short forms of the word devotee: She is kind and loyal And She's dedicated. In the first example devoted- same adjective as educated, spoiled, sublime, it has a comparative degree more faithful; in the second - the same as attached, fulfilled, heard(requires dependent words: to anyone, anything).

Short forms of adjectives, expressing different emotional states, can be written with n or with nn depending on the conveyed shades of meaning. For example: She's excited(she feels nervous) – Her speech is excited(her speech reveals, expresses excitement). In the first case, it is also possible to write excited(which would emphasize that her appearance expresses excitement), and in the second case the writing excited impossible (since speech cannot ‘experience excitement’).

IN difficult cases To distinguish between such short forms, you should refer to the academic “Russian Spelling Dictionary”.

Short forms of complex adjectives, the second parts of which coincide with the participles on -ny, written with n or nn depending on the value. Adjectives expressing characteristics that can be manifested to a greater or lesser extent, i.e. forming comparative forms, have short forms (except for the masculine form) with nn ; adjectives that do not allow comparative forms in meaning have short forms with one n , For example:

well-mannered, -no, -nny; landscaped, -no, -nny; self-confident, -no, -nny; purposeful, -no, -nny; purposeful, -no, -nny(there are comparative forms more well-mannered, more comfortable, more self-confident, more purposeful, more purposeful);

interconnected, -but, -us; interdependent, -but, -us; generally recognized, -but, -us; contraindicated, -but, -we(no forms of comparative degree).

Short forms of adjectives with a qualitative meaning, the full forms of which are conveyed in writing with one n , are written in the same way as complete ones. For example: done, done, done(from made‘unnatural, forced’); prostitute, confused, prostitutes(from confused‘illogical, confusing’); scientist, scientist, scientists(from scientist‘knowing something thoroughly’). Comparative forms are also written ( more elaborate, more confused, more learned) and adverbs -O(done, confused, learned).

Such adjectives are few in number; the vast majority of adjectives correlative with participles -ny have no qualitative significance; these are boiled, boiled, soaked, dried, chiseled and so on.

SPELLING N-NN IN ADVERB SUFFIXES

Adverbs on -O , formed from adjectives and passive participles, are written with double n or one n - depending on how the corresponding adjective or participle is written.

For example:

Written with nn : unexpected, unheard of(from unexpected, unheard of), excitedly, excitement(excited), confident;

Written with n : confusing(talks confusedly), confusion, confusion(from confused), learned(very learnedly expressed),windy(It's windy outside today).
