and the M and Ng, d, and l; thus, the family name Петров has Fn Петрова, a Петрову; Pn Петровы "the Petrov's"; Mg Петрова, d Петрову, l Петрове; the remaining forms are regular, as, Mi я говорил с гражданином Петровым "I was talking with Citizen Petrov."
§14. PRONOMINAL ADJECTIVES AND PRONOUNS
The pronominal adjectives and pronouns have noun-like forms in the nominatives, short or irregular forms in the F accusative, and when they stress the M and Ng and d endings they stress the last syllable: кого [kavo] "whose," кому "to whom."
§15. POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES
The g forms of the personal pronouns (§21) are not used to denote a possessor; instead, there are pronominal (possessive) adjectives: наш "our," ваш "your," and, with stress on the endings, мой "my," твой "your" (familiar singular, §21), свой "one's own." This last differs in use from the pronoun себя, §21, in that a possessor of the first or second person who is the same as the subject is often expressed by the ordinary possessive adjective; thus, one always says он взял свою шляпу "he took his (own) hat," for он взял его шляпу means "he took his (the other man's) hat"; but one says indifferently я взял свою шляпу or я взял мою шляпу "I took my hat."
The possessive adjective чей "whose" is used alongside the g of кто "who." The stem is (čy-) and the M has an inserted vowel: чей, чья, чьё, чьи Fa чью, etc.
All these words have [e] instead of [o] in the Fgdil.
| Mn | наш | мой |
| g | нашего | моего |
| d | нашему | моему |
| i | нашим | моим |
| l | пашем | моём |
| Nn | наше | моё |
| Fn | наша | моя |
| a | нашу | мою |
| g, d, l | нашей | моей |
| i | нашей, нашею | моей, моею |
| Pn | наши | мой |
| g, l | наших | моих |
| d | нашим | моим |
| i | нашими | моими |
In the expression по-моему "in my opinion," по-твоему, по-своему the stress is on the stem.
§16. ОДИН, САМ, ВЕСЬ
The pronominal adjective [odn-] "one" inserts [ji] in the M nominative, and [vsj-] "all" inserts [je].
Instead of [i] in the endings, [odn-] and сам "he himself" have [ji] and [vsj-] has [e] also for [o] in the Fgdil.
All three stress the endings, except сам in the Pn. This word has also an irregular Fa form with ending [-ayo].
| Mn | один | сам | весь |
| g | одного | самого | всего |
| d | одному | самому | всему |
| i | одним | самим | всем |
| l | одном | самом | всём |
| Nn | одно | само | всё |
| Fn | одна | сама | вся |
| a | одну | самоё | всю |
| g, d, l | одной | самой | всей |
| d | одной, одною | самой, самою | всей, всею |
| Pn | одни | сйми | все |
| g, l | одних | самих | всех |
| d | одним | самим | всем |
| i | одними | самими | всеми |
The Р forms of один are used in the meaning "only," "alone." The pronominal adjective сам stresses the identity: я спросил самого полковника "I asked the colonel himself"; it is different from the regular adjective самый "same": я встретил того самого полковника "I met that same colonel."
§17. ТОТ, ЭТОТ
The pronominal adjectives [t-] "that" and [et-] "this, that" take an ending [-ot] in the M nominative. Instead of [i] in the endings [t-] takes [je] and [et-] takes [ji]:
| Mn | тот | этот |
| g | того | этого |
| d | тому | этому |
| i | тем | этим |
| l | том | этом |
| Nn | то | это |
| Fn | та | эта |
| a | ту | эту |
| g, d, l | той | этой |
| i | той, тою | этой, этою |
| Pn | те | эти |
| g, l | тех | этих |
| d | тем | этим |
| i | теми | этими |
§18. ОН
The pronoun он has this stem in the nominative forms only. All the other forms have a stem [y-]. The Pn form has the ending [-ji]. The Fg and a has the ending [-оуo]. The F endings have [e] instead of [o]. All the accusative forms, regardless of gender or animation, are the same as the genitives.
