  4. without some form of transport, Russian uses a system of verbs commonly
  5. referred to as the "verbs of motion". These verbs are grouped in a way
  6. unique from other verbs and, in many respects, follow their own logic
  7. and system in terms of usage. The following is a very brief and
  8. schematic explanation of these verbs. For more detailed information, you
