Morphological analysis of the noun involves the fulfillment of the full grammatical characteristics of the noun. It must be remembered that the morphological analysis of a noun is necessarily carried out in context.
To successfully complete a morphological analysis of a noun, you need to know:
• what morphological features are characteristic of a noun;
• which of these signs are permanent, unchanging and characteristic of all nouns in general;
• which of these signs are inconsistent, variable and characteristic of a given form of a word;
• What role does it play in the proposal.
Must be able to:
• determine the initial form of the noun;
• find permanent signs characteristic of him;
• identify variable characteristics characteristic of this part of speech;
• establish the syntactic role of the noun in the sentence.
To perform the correct morphological analysis of a noun, you can use the scheme of its morphological analysis:
1. Name the part of the speech to which the word proposed for analysis belongs, its general grammatical meaning, to which question it answers.
2. Indicate the initial form of the noun.
3. Name it morphological features:
Permanent:
- common name / proper;
- inanimate / animated;
- declination;
- gender (female, male, general, not determined).
Intermittent noun features:
- case;
is a number.
4. Indicate the syntactic role of the noun in the sentence.
Note! Carrying out the morphological analysis of the noun, it must be written out together with the preposition, which will help to correctly indicate the case. The preposition should be taken in brackets. For example: (y) a river.
When identifying such permanent attributes as “common” or “proper”, there are certain difficulties when analyzing a noun that is part of a phrase. In this case, the wording is given: the noun is part of the name expressed by the phrase.
The morphological analysis of the noun will look as follows: (Moscow Region) evenings - a noun, means the subject: what? in the evening. The initial form is evening. It is part of its own name (the phrase "adjective + noun").
When defining such a permanent attribute as “animate” or “inanimate”, one needs to rely on the questions of who? or what? Another criterion is semantic: animate nouns denote objects of animate nature, while inanimate nouns denote inanimate objects.
But still, the main difference is grammatical: animate nouns have the same form of accusative and genitive in the plural, and inanimate nouns and accusative in the plural. For example: (see) whom? what? dolls, sheep, children - animated (see) whom? what? herbs, tables, noses.
The gender can be determined by substituting the pronouns he - she - it or mine - mine - mine. A separate group are general nouns (ending in –a: slut, ignorant and others). For words of foreign origin, gender is determined by meaning.
The declension of nouns is not determined if they are used exclusively in the plural. Ten nouns in-me (tribe, flame, and others) and the noun “path” belong to the divergent. Also, do not forget about the evasive nouns: names of animals of the masculine gender (chimpanzees), objects of the middle gender (coffee). The gender of proper nouns is determined by substituting common nouns for them. For example: the country of Congo.
Case and number are inconsistent signs, therefore, when performing a morphological analysis of a noun, they put the word “used” before listing them.
Sample Writing
A rare bird will reach the middle of the Dnieper.
The bird exists.
1. (Who?) Bird. N. f. - a bird.
2. Permanent .: denominated., Animated., Feminine. genus, 1 cl. Inconsistent: them. p., unit
3. (Who?) The bird.
(to) the middle - exists.
1. (To what?) (To) the middle. N. f. - the middle.
2. Permanent: denominated., Inanimate., Female genus, 1 class. Inconsistent .: rod.p., unit
3. (To what?) (To) the middle.
