"Early spring came unexpectedly, silver streams ran along the loose paths. Winged wanderers from distant lands returned, these feathered workers tirelessly make nests."
The spring picture conveyed by this text makes us remember the rules for writing double consonants.
Double consonants in loan words
If the spelling of double consonants in a word cannot be verified in any way, then they are called double. These words are subject to memorization. As this rule requires, the words with double consonants given below are remembered.
1. Some proper names: Alla, Anna, Vassa, Inessa, Ella, Rimma, Cyril, Savva.
2. Borrowed words: terrace, ton, effect, tennis, repression, program, column, correspondent, assembly, alley, score, etc.
3. Some original Russian words: Russia, burns, buzzes, yeast, quarrel.
4. In all words that are cognate with the above.
Differences between words with different numbers of consonants
When in some words one consonant and in others doubled consonants, the rules are as follows:
1. If the root of words differs in the number of consonants, then these are most likely different words with different lexical meanings:
- ton - a measure of weight, tones - the case form of the word tone - a shade of sound or color;
- cashier - a device for storing money, touch - connection at any point;
- point - unit of assessment, ball - an evening of relaxation with dancing.
Examples of offers:
- A ton of coal has already been loaded onto the ship.
- Igor had never heard such a pure tone.
- Today the box office is not working.
- The touch was weak.
- On the exam, I got a high score.
- Natalia was invited to the ball.
2. There are cases when the number of identical letters does not affect the lexical meaning of words: Alla - Alka, crystal - crystal, art - skillful, correspondent - junior, column - column, Finn - Finnish, ton - five-ton.
No double consonants
If we take, for example, the word "aluminum", then it has one letter "l". Remember words that don't have double consonants. Examples of words:
- apartments;
- balustrade;
- gallery;
- humanist, humanistic;
- decibel;
- dealer, dealer;
- amateur, amateurish;
- drama, dramatic, dramatic;
- imitation, imitate;
- corridor, corridor;
- midget;
- producer, producer.
Double word consonants
Typically, words are carried by syllables: ma-shi-na. The rules for transferring double consonants are as follows:
- Part of the word with one consonant remains on one line, and part of the word with the second consonant is transferred to another: colon, ton-na, Al-la, Russia.
- If possible, carry words with double consonants in a place where there is no double consonant: art, terra-sa, correspondent.
Unfortunately, even adults sometimes make mistakes, well, or donโt know how to correctly transfer such words. To prevent embarrassment from happening to you, let's discuss in which cases hyphenation with double consonants is unacceptable. Examples:
In addition, the rules for transferring double consonants prohibit transferring words with one vowel sound: class, score, burn.
At the junction of morphemes
When the end of the prefix and the beginning of the root, the end of the root and the beginning of the suffix or suffix are the same letter, double consonants appear. The rules dictate this spelling:
- permanent;
- fearless;
- wholeheartedly;
- toothless;
- lawless;
- to provoke;
- arrogant;
- story;
- get furious;
- pickle;
- dissect;
- to dry;
- be pinched with cold;
- vestibule;
- give in;
- pry off;
- thaw;
- outflow;
- beat in;
- enter,
- up;
- entrusted;
- art;
- Russian;
- sailor;
- Novocherkassk;
- picture;
- old;
- true;
- cardboard;
- cup holder;
- windowsill;
- supporter;
- wanderer;
- the chosen one;
- pickpocket;
- raspberry;
- aspen.
Double consonants appear when adding shortened stems:
- head physician;
- maternity hospital.
In adjective suffixes
In Russian, one of the most difficult spelling is one and two letters H in suffixes, which are found in the words of different parts of speech. Consider the spelling -n- and -nn- in adjectives. And the table will help us with this.
Double consonants. Rules for adjectives |
N | NN |
-in-: hornet, eagle, falcon; -an - (- yan-): linen, leather; | -on-: station, lecture; -en-: cranberry, straw; |
There are several exceptions to this rule: windy (windless), glass, pewter, wooden.
Of particular note are words that are formed without a suffix:
- pork;
- mutton;
- young;
- scarlet;
- blue;
- green.
In the suffixes of participles
To apply the rule correctly, words with double consonants must be distinguished from adjectives. They are formed from verbs:
- proceed - well-groomed;
- to paint - painted;
- write - written;
- to expel - exiled;
- desire - desired;
- buy - bought;
- eradicate - eradicated;
- to elect - the chosen one;
- incandescent - incandescent;
- fry - fried;
- wake up - awakened;
- demarcate - demarcated;
- print - printed;
- draw - drawn;
- Interview - interviewed;
- grab - grabbed.
Spelling of double consonants. Rule for participles with one letter H |
The rule | Examples |
In short participles | All tasks are completed. |
In imperfect participles without dependent words and prefixes | The bench is colored. |
Spelling of double consonants with two letters H |
The rule | Examples |
There are consoles | Arranged tables. |
There are dependent words | Bench painted yesterday. |
Words to remember: unprecedented, unexpected, unexpected, unexpected, unread.
In adverbs suffixes
In words-adverbs, as many H are written as in a producing word. This is the simplest rule. Words with double consonants with this spelling exist in the Russian language along with those that are written with one letter:
- sincere - sincerely;
- unintentional - unintentionally;
- beautiful - beautiful;
- interesting - interesting.
