Russian Nouns and Morphology

• Morphology is the study of the structure of words, formed from the Greek roots "morph" (form) and "logos" (study).
• Morphology in linguistics analyzes the different parts of speech in a language such as nouns, adjectives, verbs, pronouns, and numerals.
• Nouns are the most common part of speech, with around 4000 out of 9000 most frequent words in the Russian language being nouns.
• Nouns can be animate (referring to people or animals) or inanimate (referring to objects or concepts).
• Proper nouns are capitalized and refer to specific names of people, places, or things.
• Common nouns are written in lowercase and refer to general objects, phenomena, or qualities.
• Nouns can be singular (referring to one item) or plural (referring to two or more items), with singular and plural forms changing in Russian.
