Russian verbs of motion:

An Introduction to determinate and Indeterminate verbs.

Hubert Setzler

Abstract

This programed textbook introduces Russian imperfective verbs of motion. The text explains the verbs and includes questions in the text with blanks for the student to fill in. The answers are found on the following pages. The book is devoted primarily to five major Russian verbs of motion (those of locomotion and conveyance) in their determinate and indeterminate forms, with one section on some other pairs of indeterminate-determinate verbs of motion. A final test, for which answers are available, completes the course. An appendix of verb definitions and a short bibliography are included. (CHK)
