Those pesky Russian motion verbs!
What methods should one employ in order to master this area of the language? What are your personal experiences with learning VoM, prefixed and unprefixed? 1 person has voted this message useful | |

What exactly is bothering you about them?
I don't feel they are problematic. Most of them are easy to remember if you know what the prepositions stand for, because then the connections will make sense. Some of them shift a little semantically but you can figure out why from the root/prefix. It's just a question of getting used to habitual or not, and then the context will give you clues on what to use.

I have the same problem with the German prefixes. I think I'm going to memorize some examples without trying to break them down...

I would recommend this book. It treats both unprefixed and prefixed verbs of motion in detail. The only con is that there is no answer key.
Russian Verbs of Motion for Intermediate Students Whilst looking for the above link I also noticed Russian Verbs of Motion: The Workbook which looks promising. 1 person has voted this message useful |
