      RUSSIAN VERBS

      1. Introduction

      Russian language belongs to the Slavic languages, like Polish, Czech and Slovak. The main features of the Russian language are:

      person (first, second and third)

      number (singular and plural)

      tense (present, past and future)

      mood (indicative, imperative and conditional)

      gender (masculine, feminine and neuter)

      voice (active, passive and reflexive)

      aspect (perfective and imperfective)

      2. Verbal aspect

      One of the most characteristic features of the Slavic languages (Russian among them) is the representation of the aspect through verbal pairs. The aspect of a verb establishes whether the action is finished, is developing while the subject speaks, begins or is performed frequently. In English, verbal aspect has no external markers, but the endings, with the combination of the auxiliary verbs or periphrastic constructions, help us to determinate whether the action is finished or not.

      However, Russian verbs have not as many tenses as English or Spanish verbs have, therefore they need external markers of the aspect and they gather in verbal pairs. In general terms, we can say that the meaning of an English verb can be equivalent to two Russian verbs and the speaker must choose one verb or another according to the aspect of the action.

      For example, the verb write in English corresponds with two verbs писать and написать. The first verb, писать, has an imperfective aspect, which denotes the process of the action. The
