Russian word and sentence parsing with AI

Pick a type of parsing and type a word. We show what the parsing looks like in an exercise book and why each step is done that way; the AI in the chat explains your word or checks your own parsing.

Grade
What you need
Examples:
Exercise book entryWord structure
подснежник
Zero ending: подснежник – подснежника.
Stem: подснежник.
Root -снеж-: снег, снежок, снежный.
Prefix под-, suffix -ник-.

Preview built from a template. In the chat you can ask about any step.

Why – step by step
  1. Change the word: подснежник – подснежника. The ending is zero, shown in the diagram as an empty square.
  2. The stem is the whole word without the ending: подснежник.
  3. Related words: снег, снежок, снежный. The common part is the root -снеж-; г and ж alternate.
  4. Before the root is the prefix под-, as in «подоконник».
  5. After the root is the suffix -ник-, as in «лесник».

Prompt sent to the chat: «Parse the word “подснежник” by its structure for a student in grades 5–7: ending, stem, root with related words, prefix, suffixes. At each step explain how you checked it.»

Previews are built from templates. Parsing requests are text requests, free on the Starter plan (30 energy units). You can also send a photo of the task from your textbook.

Word structure

Parsing a word by its structure: notation and order

Parts of a word are marked with signs above the letters. Always start with the ending – it means fewer mistakes.

под
Prefixstands before the root
снеж
Rootthe common part of related words
ник
Suffixafter the root, forms new words
ый
Endingthe changing part; it can be zero
город
Stemthe word without its ending

1. Ending

Change the word by case or number: whatever changes is the ending. If you hear nothing change, the ending is zero.

2. Stem

The whole word without the ending. In the initial form of a verb, -ть is not part of the stem.

3. Root

Pick 2–3 related words and find their common part. Remember alternation: снег – снежок.

4. Prefix and suffixes

Everything before the root is a prefix; everything between the root and the ending is a suffix. Check with similar words: лес-ник, под-окон-ник.

Phonetics

Phonetic parsing of a word: why letters and sounds differ in number

Four cases where people most often make mistakes. Transcription goes in square brackets; softness is marked with an apostrophe.

юла[й'ула́]

Е, Ё, Ю, Я – two sounds

At the start of a word, after a vowel, and after ь and ъ. Here: 3 letters and 4 sounds.

ель[й'эл']

Ь and Ъ – no sound

The soft sign only shows that [л'] is soft. 3 letters and 3 sounds.

дуб[дуп]

Devoicing

A voiced consonant at the end of a word, or before a voiceless one, sounds voiceless.

просьба[про́з'ба]

Voicing

A voiceless consonant before a voiced one sounds voiced: we write с, we hear [з'].

Check your textbook: school programmes use different notation for unstressed vowels, softness and syllables. Tell the AI which textbook you use, or send a photo of a sample from it.

Morphology

Morphological parsing: permanent and variable features

The hardest part of parsing is not mixing up which features are permanent. A cheat sheet for three parts of speech.

Noun
Permanent: proper or common, animate or inanimate, gender, declension
Variable: case, number
Adjective
Permanent: category: qualitative, relative, possessive
Variable: for qualitative adjectives: degree of comparison, full or short form; case, number, and gender in the singular
Verb
Permanent: aspect, transitivity, reflexivity, conjugation
Variable: mood, tense, number, person in the present and future, gender in the past singular
Syntax

Syntactic parsing of a sentence: how to underline

First find the grammatical base, then ask questions from it to the other words.

Над рекой кружились жёлтые листья.

Declarative, non-exclamatory, simple, two-part, extended.

Subject – who? what?
Predicate – what does it do? what did it do?
Attribute – which? whose?
Object – indirect cases: whom? what? with what?
Adverbial – where? when? how? why?
Stress

Correct stress in words where people most often go wrong

Tap a word – it opens in the Stress tab above, with a rule to remember it by.

Frequently asked questions

How do I do a morphological parsing of a word with AI?

Open the Morphology tab, type the word and send the sentence where it stands in the chat: the case, tense and role depend on it. The AI parses it by the school plan and explains which question each feature was found by.

Can I trust the AI for phonetic parsing?

It identifies sounds and their characteristics confidently, but textbooks use different notation: how to write unstressed vowels, softness, syllables. Check your textbook and tell the AI which one you use – it will write it the same way.

How do I find a check word?

Find the root and change the word so that the doubtful vowel becomes stressed (лесной – лес), or so that the consonant ends up before a vowel (лодка – лодочка). The AI lets you try first and only then shows the answer.

How do I find which syllable is stressed in a word?

Type the word in the Stress tab. The AI shows the stressed syllable and other forms of the word, and suggests how to remember it. For words you are not sure about, check a pronunciation dictionary.

Will the AI check my word-structure parsing?

Yes. Turn on “Check mine”, type how you parsed it in your exercise book. The AI points out the mistake and gives a hint, and you fix it yourself – that is how the rule sticks.

Will it do a syntactic parsing of a sentence with a diagram?

Yes: the base, secondary members with questions, a characterisation of the sentence, and for a complex one, a diagram. If the task is in a photo, send a picture of the page.
