- Separate spelling of adverbs.
- Slot spelling of adverbs.
Let us consider them in more detail.
Separate spelling of adverbs
The word "ahead" as it is written? The answer to this question can give us the following rules of the Russian language, which argue that adverbs are written separately in the following cases:
- When a combination of a preposition and an adverb is used, which is used in the meaning of the noun. Let's give an example: He passed the session to "good".
- With a combination of the preposition "by" and the collective numeral, which ends with -e. Let's give an example: They were built in a column of five.
- With a combination of a preposition and a pronoun. Let's give an example: Rain poured all the days that they spent on a hike.
- With a combination of the preposition "c" and the complex word, which in the first part has a "gender", and in the second - the name of any unit of measure or an indication of time. Let's give an example: She was half a meter tall. We agreed to meet in the first half.
- With a combination of a preposition and a complete adjective, which stands in the case form. In this case, the preposition at the end must have a consonant letter, and the adjective must begin with a vowel. Let's give an example: She openly criticized the authorities.
Since it is necessary to write correctly:in front or in front? Unfortunately, we can not answer the question with the help of these rules, since the expression for them does not fall. In this regard, we can safely conclude that it is written together, but not separately. To be sure of the sound of the conjecture, we recommend that you still find a suitable rule.
Slit spelling of adverbs
Earlier we found out that the word ahead isAn adverb that was formed on behalf of a noun by means of a prefix-suffix method. Moreover, such an expression has a spatial significance. Therefore, it is necessary to search for a rule that will correspond to all the features of the given word.
So, adverbs having a temporary andspatial values in which the prefix is attached to words in the form of nouns (back, top, front, bottom, far, side, near, high, eyelid, depth, beginning, breadth), it is necessary to write only together.
In order to make the presented rule clearer, let's give an illustrative example: backward, upward, forward (forward), down, far, sideways, near, up, forever (forever), deep, at first, in breadth. It should also be noted that other forms of these adverbs are also merged (with other prefixes): at the top, top, side, up, down, up,top, bottom, top, bottom, bottom, bottom, bottom, front, front, back, rear, behind, side, firing, far, up, up, up, away, forever, far away, forever, at first, at first and etc.
Learning the above rule, you can safelyanswer the question of how it will be right: "in front" or "ahead"? Such an adverb should only be written together. If you doubt this even after so many arguments, try to put any word or question between the preposition "in" and the word "forward." As you can see, nothing happens. This is another confirmation of the fact that the presented adverb is written together.
