Normal Adjectives - Hard (“-ый”, “-ой”, “-ий” (but not “-ний”))

Hard Adjectives are by far the most common. Just substitute “-ый” for “-ой”, or “-ий” where
needed. (other table entries remain the same).

For example, the word "новый" (new) ends in the letters -ый so we use the forms above.

Normal Adjectives - Soft (“-ний”)

The soft form or normal adjectives is less common. It's for adjectives ending in “-ний”.

Dative Case -ему -ей -ему -им
Instrumental Case -им -ей (or -ею) -им -ими
Prepositional

Case

You will notice that the soft adjectives simply use the soft form of the first added vowel. ("ы"
becomes "и", "а" becomes "я", "о" becomes "е","у" becomes "ю"). Otherwise the hard and soft
forms are basically the same.

Remember that "его", and "ого", the "г" is pronounced like the english letter "v"

For example, the word "синий" (dark blue) ends in the letters -ий so we use the forular above.

Short Adjectives

The second main type of Russian adjectives are the ‘short form’. We don’t really have this form in
English, but we do use adjectives the same way.

The short form is generally used to make a statement about something. In English it normally
follows the word “is” or “are”. For example, “You are beautiful”, “He is busy”. Notice that the
adjective is not followed by a noun. The use of the short form is generally limited to such simple
sentences.

It is important to note that not all adjectives can have a short form, (but most do). One notable
example is русский (Russian).

Cases are not relevant when using short adjectives, as you only need the nominative case when
making such statements. The adjective should still agree in gender with the noun. Masculine
nouns just use the stem of the adjective in the short form. Feminine adds “а”. Neuter adds “о”.
Plural adds “ы” or “и”. If the adjective is masculine and the stem ends in two consonants, then
add a vowel (“о”, “е” or “ё”) so that the word is easier to read.
