Verbioso English-Russian Verb Reference System

   Using verbs in the correct tense is crucial to communicate properly, and for people working with Russian this is quite a daunting task. For starters, they must know both the perfective (ãëàãîë ñîâåðøåííîãî âèäà) and imperfective forms (ãëàãîë íåñîâåðøåííîãî âèäà). Then they must be able to conjugate them properly given numerous rules and countless exceptions. To pronounce them, they must know over which vowel to apply the stress. Moreover, they must see relevant examples to best gauge meaning and determine the proper case to use. Last but not least, they must be able to look up the infinitive root even if they only have an already conjugated verb (it is common to have conjugated verbs that start with a different letter than it’s root making it very challenging to find it). Unfortunately, you won’t get all of this information from a traditional dictionary.
