• Patronymics
13. Some feminine patronymics and last names can look alike, for instance Cepreeoua and Cepreeoa. You
can tell them apart by looking at the ending: patronymics have the consonant cluster -ou- before the
ending -a, last names do not. Thus, Cepreeoua is a patronymic, but Cepreeoa is a last name.
Using the following list of names, write first names, patronymics, and last names for six unrelated people.

29. Word Order in Question/Answer Pairs. Read this carefully before proceeding to the exercise. Typically,
a response starts with the "given" information from the corresponding question and ends with the
"new" information. Compare the following question/answer pairs and note that the English word
order does not differentiate between the two types of answers.
f)J,e Jie)KHT KOWKa? KomKa Jie)KHT ua JJ,HBaHe. (new information)

Where is the cat lying? The cat is lying on the sofa.
Kro Jie)KHT ua )J,HBaue? Ha )J,HBaue Jie)KHT KOIIIKa. (new information)
Who is lying on the sofa? The cat is lying on the sofa.
Note on subject/verb agreement: The question words KTO and 'ITO are singular and, therefore, the
question verb is also in the singular form. If the subject in the answer is plural, the verb will also be
in the plural.
l.ho CTOHT Ha IIOJiy? Ha IIOJIY CTOBT CTOJI, CTYJI HTeJieBH30p.
