This book provides comprehensive information regarding the construction and usage of participle and verbal adverb. To teach these highly applicable grammatical categories, different types of texts are used and all the styles of the Russian language are considered, including scientific, press, administrative, and interactive styles. In this publication, for the first time in a Russian for foreigner’s book, nominal participles have been investigated specifically. The difference of participles are explained through traits that are constructed by verbs. In the appendix of Chapter One, for the first time in the history of teaching Russian to foreigners, DE causatives (especially with participles) have been discussed in contemporary conversational speeches. The book contains a range of exercises that enhance the spoken and written language skills of the learners in areas related to Iranian-Islamic culture and civilization, and the culture of Russia, and can promote speech skills along with the development of grammatical skills. The present book is part of the Russian grammar curriculum for students of Russian Language and Literature, and provides educational needs for undergraduate students in Russian language programs at universities. This book can also be useful for all Russian language and culture enthusiasts.
