Verb entail in meaning "cause something as a consequence" is usually used with words behind you. But sometimes (rarely) these words are omitted. The Russian language dictionary in 4 volumes (MAS) gives the following example: He was clearly aware that further defense of the fortress would entail huge, unnecessary casualties among the garrison and especially among the soldiers. Stepanov, Port Arthur. Thus, the use of words behind you after will entail is not strictly required.

Russian language help desk response

The adverb _subsequently_ is always written together. Theoretically, it is possible to write _after_ separately as a combination of the preposition _in_ and the noun _after_ in the prepositional case, but it is difficult to find a context in which such a combination would be used.

Remember: if an adjective in an adverb begins with a vowel, then the preposition is written separately with it: to act openly.

Written separately (in two words): as a mockery, in installments, as a curiosity, as well as adverbial combinations in which the noun begins with a vowel: tightly, in an embrace and etc.

7. Adverbs with spatial and temporal meaning that contain nouns are written together (in one word) top, bottom, front, back, height, distance, depth, width, beginning, end, century:up, at the top, to the top, to the top, to the top; down, below, down, below; forward; back; up; in the distance, in the distance; deep; breadth; at first, at first; finally, finally; forever, forever, forever, forever.

Notes: 1. Possibility of inserting a defining word between the prepositional prefix and the noun (cf.: up - to the very top) does not entail separate writing of the adverb.

These adverbs are written separately (in two words) only if the sentence contains an explanatory word for the specified nouns: to the bottom of the dress, into the depths of the ocean, into the foggy distance, at the beginning of autumn, forever and ever, forever and ever. Wed: Need to repeat the lesson from the beginning (‘from the beginning’). — We need to start all over again(‘again, again, once again’).

2. Some of the adverbs given in paragraph 7 can be used as prepositions with a controlled noun: there was a light visible at the bottom of the door(‘the light came from under the door, and did not illuminate the bottom of the door’); there was a date at the top of the letter; stop in the middle of the road; to be at the top of bliss; feel at the top of well-being(the word above has a figurative meaning), etc.

8. Adverbs why, then, why, because, why, because, therefore, therefore, how much are written together (in one word), in contrast to consonant combinations of prepositions with pronouns, which are written in two words. Wed:

For what raise vain hopes?

For what if you go, you will find it(Last.).

He didn't talk about it then, to arouse in us simple curiosity.

Following this a shot rang out.

Then and came to get the information I needed(‘came for some purpose’).

Then and came what I was looking for(‘came for some object’).

Why ('why') I love you, silent night?(Ya.P.)

There was something to be sad about (‘there was a reason for this state’).

Misunderstandings often occur that's why ('because'), that people don't understand each other...

What happens next depends because how the circumstances will turn out.

Why (‘for what reason’) Do you judge people so badly?

For what (‘on what grounds’) do you judge the weather change?

I just didn't recognize familiar places That's why, that I haven't been here for a long time.

Changes in life cannot be judged only That's why, what you see fleetingly.

How much (‘at what price’) Are potatoes on the market now?

They hit anything.

Remember: the combination is then written in three words.

The choice of continuous (adverb) or separate (combination of a preposition with a pronoun) spelling is sometimes determined by the context.

Thus, the relationship between the question and the answer matters. Wed:

For what did he come here? - To get the information you need- a goal that is expressed by an adverb.

For what did he come here? — For the necessary information- an object that is expressed by a pronoun in combination with a preposition.

In other cases, determining the correlation helps to choose a spelling homogeneous members offers. Wed:

From constant winds and that's why that it rarely rains in these places, the soil here is noticeably weathered- homogeneous circumstances of the cause.

In some cases, a double interpretation of the text is possible and, therefore, the use of an adverb or pronoun with a preposition:

From the speaker's speech and from the fact what will be said in the debate, you can expect a lot of interesting things - homogeneous additions.

What he says (‘engages in conversation’) is of little use.

What he says (‘the content of his statements’) is of little use.

Note. In colloquial speech there are constructions whose writing deviates from the rule: - Why Are you angry with me? - Yes according to the same thing (the separative spelling is explained by the presence of the word itself, which acts as an intensifying particle).

9. Adverbs with the prefix po- are written with a hyphen, formed from full forms of adjectives and from pronouns and ending in -om/-him, -ki, -i:apparently; empty; work in a new way; let's do it Serezha's way(from the possessive adjective seryozhin ← Seryozha) ; still; let it be your way; advise in a friendly manner; To speak French; to be cunning like a fox, and also in Latin.

Remember: in adverbs with the prefix po-, formed from compound adjectives with hyphenated spelling, the hyphen is written only after the prefix: in a social democratic way, in a non-commissioned officer way.

10. Adverbs with the prefix v-/vo-, formed from ordinal numbers, are written with a hyphen: firstly, fourthly, lastly(the last spelling is similar to the previous ones).

Parts of such rare formations as twenty-fifths, one-hundred-thirty-sevenths, two-hundred-forty-seconds and so on.

11. Indefinite adverbs with suffixes and prefixes (particles) are written with a hyphen. -something, -either, -something, and also with the particle: sometime, from somewhere, somehow, somewhere, quickly.

12. Adverbs formed by repetition of the same word or the same stem, as well as a combination of two synonymous or related words are written with a hyphen: barely, barely, after all, criss-cross, tightly, little by little, unexpectedly, as soon as possible, in a hurry, quietly, quietly, at the very least.

13. The adverb-term na-gora (‘on the surface of the earth’) is written with a hyphen.

In Russian they are quite simple: you need to remember which prepositions are written with a hyphen, which ones are written together, and which ones separately.

The problem is that there are homonymous parts of speech(with prepositions, adverbs,), which are written differently, but are pronounced the same way as prepositions.

Therefore, in order to learn how to write prepositions correctly, you need to learn the rules for distinguishing between prepositions and homonymous parts of speech.

Hyphenated writing of non-derivative prepositions

Prepositions-adjuncts because of, from under and vernacular for, for, over, under, for, for, for written with a hyphen: Because of the sun rose majestically through the forest; From under suddenly a dog jumped out of the spreading lilac tree barking; How intoxicated the wind is blowing merrily over-on steppe; They'll go under snow covered streams; For-sake he put his hat on solemnly.

Separate writing of derivative prepositions

Prepositions are written separately in the form of, in fact, to the extent, in the area, in contrast to, in relation to, in continuation of, in connection with, by virtue of, in the sense of, during, for the purposes of, except for, at the expense of, to the extent of, regarding, because of.

In continuation or in continuation? During or during?

  • Prepositions in continuation, during, written separately, have at the end -e(since the former noun is in the accusative case).
  • They should be distinguished from homonymous combinations of nouns in the prepositional case in continuationand, withinAnd, ending with - And, with pretext V. In these combinations between a noun and a preposition: V(this) continue And, V(downstream) And , in addition, a noun, as a rule, requires a dependent word after itself in genitive case: in continuation stories, during rivers .

Note. Word form Finally is not included in the group of derived prepositions.

  • When there is a dependent word, a noun Finally used as an adverbial adverbial and has an ending prepositional case -And: In conclusionAnd (which one?) books (articles, magazines, speeches) contain interesting facts.
  • In the case of independent use (without a dependent word), this noun is used in the accusative case and has the ending -e and performs the function of a time adverb: (When?) Finally the singer, at the request of the audience, performed two more works.

Continuous writing of derivative prepositions

The prepositions are written together in view of, instead of, inside, like, after, as a result of, towards, in defiance of, like, on the contrary, about, despite, in spite of, in the middle (in the middle), through, on the side of.

Most of them different in spelling from combinations of nouns with a preposition or homonymous prepositions and other combinations written separately.

The problem is to correctly identify the part of speech to choose the spelling of the word.

Despite or despite?


Despite ( regardless of) - preposition if:

  • written together with Not ;
  • has a conceding meaning: Despite(despite) on (We happily climbed to the top of the mountain, Although and tired) ;
  • always has only the form with a prefix Not-, you cannot lower the attachment: Despite(despite) on tired, we happily climbed to the top of the mountain can't say Depending(looking) on tired, we happily climbed to the top of the mountain;
  • You can't replace a preposition with a verb : Despite In response to the threat of an accident, Olga sent the locomotive along the second track.

Despite ( regardless of ) , If

  • written separately: Regardlesson whom, the tear-stained girl ran out of the room;
  • gerunds can contain nouns or pronouns with prepositions from, to, to(despiteWith heights, despite By parties, regardless on Houses; regardless With peaks, regardless on sea);
  • You can omit the particle from participles Not , and the meaning of the phrase should change to the opposite: Girl, despite dad, walked past him.- Girl, looking at dad, walked past him;
  • If in spite of (in spite of) is a gerund, it denotes an additional action, i.e. it is used literally participles: Shel, despite under your feet.He walked and didn’t look at his feet. In this case despite can be replaced by a gerund not looking.

In view or in mind?

  • in view of- a preposition, written together if it has a causal (or consequential) meaning: The director now felt even a little respect for the cultural employee in view of the fact that he doesn’t bother with lectures, but sits silently;Due to the distance and obscurity of juvenile water, Vermot proposed burning the ground with a voltaic arc- in these examples the preposition in view of can be replaced with a preposition-synonym what), they both express causal relations;
  • in mind- a combination of a noun with a preposition, written separately if it expresses spatial relationships (“near, nearby”): The ship sailed for a long time on the surface of the sea in mind(near) the shore.
  • The same value is preserved in a stable combination keep in mind(noun): There was a time when I was engaged in peat, not at all I mean that in about forty years I will write a story about him, “The Pantry of the Sun”(Priv.);

Like or sort of?

  • like- preposition, written together, has like:I was twenty-five years old when I started writing something like(like) memories;
  • sort of: Sort of“We didn’t have cowards,” the grandfather said proudly.

After or after?

  • following- preposition, written together, has a synonym after: Following loud hooting rang out from the fleeing beast(following the fleeing animal);
  • should be distinguished from a combination of a noun and a preposition follow: — The border guards peered for a long time follow on a plowed strip(looked at what? - at the trace).

As a result or as a consequence?

  • due to- preposition, written together, constant final e, expresses causal (or effect) relationships, has a synonym because of: The elderly shepherd looked at the separate pastures where he would have to stay all day and imagine a lot due to(due to) the fact that there is little work for a shepherd in the virgin lands... (Plat.);
  • different from combining a noun with a preposition as a consequence no (II) , the ending depends on the case: Because of there was insufficient evidence for the charges; As a consequence a significant amendment was made to the charge.

Towards or to a meeting?

  • towards- preposition, written together: From the dark forest towards An inspired magician suits him...;
  • should be distinguished from a combination of a noun and a preposition to the meeting: — On(this) meeting(with graduates) a famous poet in the city came to the meeting it is possible to substitute the definition ( this), in addition, a noun can have a dependent word in instrumental case (with graduates).

About or at the expense?

  • about o (about): About Fedora (about Fedora) ... make arrangements,” said Arkady Pavlych in an undertone and with perfect composure(T.);
  • should be distinguished from a combination of a noun and a preposition to the account:On (specified) check a large amount of money arrived in the bank- between a preposition and a noun in combination on account it is possible to substitute the definition (specified) .

Like or similar?

  • like- preposition, written together, has a synonymous preposition like: A bird suddenly flew out from under my feet, like(like) quail;
  • should be distinguished from a combination of a noun and a preposition like:We noticed on(amazing) similarity these figs p - between a preposition and a noun in combination like it is possible to substitute the definition (amazing).

In the middle or in the middle?

  • in the middle, in the middle(colloquial) in the middle) is a preposition, written together, expressing spatial relationships: In the evening he [the bear] was released into a brightly lit arena, in the middle which, slowly, walked A tall man with a powdered face;

Note. Word subsequently is an adverb, always ends in And; there is never an excuse.

The Russian language is complex, there are many nuances when studying it that play important role. Even those who have been studying Russian since childhood encounter difficulties - the rules are difficult to understand. The part of speech that most often causes tricky “trips” is the adverb. At first glance, everything looks simple, but often problems are discovered when writing. And they cannot be solved without the help of a textbook and a dictionary.

A striking example of this is the solution to the question of how to correctly write “subsequently”: together or separately. Indeed, this expression is often found in life, it sounds harmonious, and is able to accurately convey the meaning. It will also fit into the text of any style, and therefore requires error-free use.

Meaning of the word

To understand and remember how to write “subsequently” or “subsequently”, you need to clearly understand what this word means. Without looking for a long explanation in the dictionary, you can simply find synonyms. By giving a clear idea of ​​the word, they facilitate easy assimilation of the material.

Synonyms of this word include:


As well as other (including exact ones: “after a year”, “after two months”) designations of time.

Correct writing

To find out how to write “afterwards” or “subsequently”, let’s turn to the rules of the Russian language. First you need to understand the word formation process of this word.

"In" is a preposition, "consequence" is a noun. But when united, they form one adverb. According to the rules, if a word can be inserted between a preposition and a noun, then the word is written separately. Let's conduct an experiment, trying to insert any part of speech. There is no single option that would fit. Therefore, we conclude that “subsequently” is written together. It is also impossible to ask a case question to a noun; its form does not change.

This means that when choosing between “later” or “subsequently”, we use the second option. Please note that “and” is always written at the end. It's easy to make a mistake in this expression, so you just need to remember correct writing.

Sometimes, people confuse "subsequently" with "as a consequence". You need to know that these expressions have different meanings from each other. In the second case, there are two spelling options: merged and separate. If the word “investigation” means “investigation”, “trial”, then the expression is written separately. You can easily insert a word between a preposition and a noun. Example:

  • During the investigation, new facts emerged in the case.

The expression “as a result” is written together if in the context it is easy to replace it with a synonym “as a result”:

  • Due to the circumstances that have arisen, the meeting is postponed.

Consolidation of knowledge

To find out in theory how it is written - “afterwards” or “later”, to parse the meaning of the expression - already most of, but that's not all. For a better understanding, you need to look at how the word is used in a sentence. To do this, let's give examples.

  • Subsequently, society did not ask the question at what cost the ballerina achieved success.
  • At first I thought that he was ugly, clumsy and inconspicuous, but I looked at him better, and later I fell in love.
  • The most beautiful creature subsequently did not live up to my hopes.
  • The operation was a lesson for me, and subsequently I did not skimp on my health.

In order to consolidate the acquired knowledge, you can make similar sentences. To make it more convenient for perception, at first you can mentally replace “subsequently” with a synonym (“later”, “further”), and ask the question “when?” "Subsequently" is often used in books and newspapers, so reading - good exercise to consolidate knowledge.

How to write: “later” or “subsequently” has now become clear. This rule requires understanding and the ability to think logically.
