From time to time, spelling mistakes are made by everyone - from elementary school students to wise professors. And if few people notice a couple of “ashhibak” and “black-eyed” in the large text, then a regular violation of the rules of the Russian language already suggests that the person did not study well at school.
We present you the top 20 most common spelling errors of the Russian language.
Put on clothes
How to: put on clothes
You must have heard the easy-to-remember (mnemonic) rule about “dressing” and “putting on”. Dress Hope, and put on clothes.
It’s funny that in the film “The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath!” the main character Nadezhda, a teacher of Russian language and literature, says: "My dress, I forgot to wear a festive dress."
Company and Campaign
How to: contextual
One of the most common spelling mistakes in the Russian language is associated with homophones - words that are heard alike and written differently. And they have different meanings.
- When we talk about a company, we mean a group of people. Or a commercial or industrial enterprise.
- But when it comes to the campaign, then this word means any military event conducted by the state during the war. Or a set of activities that are aimed at solving an important economic, political or social task (for example, a presidential election campaign).
Groom
How to: a boyfriend
When you see the word "caretaker" in the text, an association with the worm arises, which crawls into the ear and slowly gnaws holes in it. Or with a sadist eating the ears of his victims.
But the word "boyfriend" has a beautiful test word - "to care".
From that and because
How to: contextual
If you use "because" in the meaning of reason (because, for reason), then you need to write the word together.
If after "from that" comes a definable word, then you need to write the word separately. Example: I fled from that snake because I mistook him for a viper.
During and in conclusion
How to: contextual
As the character of one of the jokes said: “Children, this is impossible to understand! Just remember! ” In fact, you can understand this, just the explanation will be boring and you will probably get tired of reading it.
Therefore, just remember: we write "during" when it comes to the direction of movement of water. And “in custody” - when it comes to a prisoner, that is, a person who is in prison.
In all other cases, the letter “e” must be written at the ends of these words.
Simpotichno
How to: Pretty
If you don’t pay attention to the fact that Microsoft Word and other text editors underline this word with the letter “o” in the middle as incorrectly spelled, then perhaps remember that there is a test word. Sympathy.
Unit
How to: unit
I admit, this mistake haunted me until the 3rd grade at school. But many people do it in adulthood. And all you need to remember is that the word “unit” has test words - “one”, “one”.
Same as well
How to: contextual
If you are in doubt about how to spell the word “also” - together or separately - then mentally replace it with the union “and”. If it works out, then the word must be written together. And if the word “the same” follows the union “how”, then it is written separately. Just like in this sentence.
Tysya and tsya in verbs
Correct: Depends on which question the verb answers
Admit, have you made this mistake at least once? If so, do not worry - you are not alone in this! In Runet confused "thou and thou" and old and young.
You can not confuse. It is enough to mentally answer the question of which question the verb answers.
- If the question “what does” or “what will do”, then the word is written without a soft sign. For example: he admires you.
- And if the question "what to do" or "what to do" - then with a soft. For example: he wants to admire you.
Sorry
How to: sorry
Well, for the first time, you can excuse me. And in the future you need to remember that we are talking about misconduct, and not about a vein in the human body, and not even about the city of Vienna.
Here
How to: here
Why some people write the sonorous word “here” as a menacingly deaf “sdes” is a mystery to me. Perhaps they speak the spirits of ancient Slavic ancestors who wrote this word "here" in the meaning of "this."
As if as if
How to: as if
These two words are always written separately. Short and simple, huh?
Girl
How to: Girl
The suffix “-onk” is used when we go to emphasize the small size of an animate or inanimate object.
Perhaps by ear the words with this suffix sound better with “-enk”, but they are nevertheless written with “-onk”.
Chtoli, hardly, a little
How right: perhaps hardly
We pronounce these words together, which creates the feeling that they are written in this way. But according to the rules of the Russian language, this trinity of particles is written separately from the adverb "li". Is always. And they don’t even need a hyphen.
Why and for what
How to: contextual
Remember the final dialogue between Agent Smith and Neo in The Matrix: Revolution? It began like this:
“Why, Mr. Anderson, why?” In the name of what? What are you doing? Why, why get up? Why keep fighting?
Now, if Agent Smith asked: “What are you up to?” What are you continuing to fight for? ”, Then, perhaps, Neo would not have found what to answer him. After all, the word “for what” is written separately in the context of “behind some kind of barrier” (house, wall, etc.).
If we use “why,” meaning “for what,” then this word should be written together.
Generally
How to: in general
Sometimes the word “in general” acts as an introductory one, and then it has the meaning “in essence”, “in essence”. But more often it is an adverb, and has the meaning "in general", "without touching the details." And in both cases it is written separately.
To come
How to: come
This verb is one of the oldest among all Indo-European languages. And once he sounded like: "go." And as soon as they did not write it: come, and go, and even come. However, in our time, only one spelling is correct - come.
Make one
How to: do
Many people are accustomed to pronounce this word as "create". Alas, this is the case when it is not written as it is heard. In this case, the letter "c" is the prefix. But the prefix “z” is not in Russian morphemic.
Thailand
How to: Thailand
This is one of the most common spelling mistakes in Runet. We write “Thais” and “Thai”, but the name of the country is still Thailand. But you must admit that with the letter "th" this word sounds nicer.
By the way, many tour operators and advertising agencies, knowing about the habit of Russians to write Thailand instead of Thailand, use exactly the wrong spelling on the pages of their sites in order to remain in the first lines of search results.
Ice cream
How to: ice cream
Summer has come, which means that we began to pronounce and spell the word ice cream much more often than in winter. This is a noun, and it is written with one letter "n".
But if “ice cream” is a passive participle (trout, ice cream in the refrigerator, frozen product, thawed freezer), then the double letter “n” appears.
