1. Russian Personal Pronouns

First, let’s understand what exactly a pronoun is. In the Russian language, a pronoun is a substitute word used to mention a noun without naming it directly. Before we start, check out our list of the most useful Russian pronouns.

Basically, the most essential pronouns for beginners are personal pronouns. In Russian, they’re called личные местоимения (lichnyye mestoimeniya). 

The Russian personal pronouns are:

• я (ya) — “I”
• ты (ty) — “you” (singular)
• он (on) — “he” 
• она (ona) — “she” 
• оно (ono) — “it” 
• мы (my) — “we” 
• вы (vy) — “you” (plural)
• они (oni) — “they”

Here’s a Russian personal pronouns chart that will help you understand the system of Russian pronoun declension:

	Singular					Plural
	1st	2nd	3rd			1st	2nd	3rd
			Neuter	Masculine	Feminine
English	I	you	it	he	she	we	you	they
Nominative	я (ya)	ты (ty)	оно (ono)	он (on)	она (ona)	мы (my)	вы (vy)	они (oni)
Accusative	меня (menya)	тебя (tebya)	его (yego)		её (yeyo)	нас (nas)	вас (vas)	их (ikh)
Genitive
Dative	мне (mne)	тебе (tebe)	ему (yemu)		ей (yey)	нам (nam)	вам (vam)	им (im)
Instrumental	мной / мною (mnoy / mnoyu)	тобой / тобою (toboy / toboyu)	им (im)		ей / ею (yey / yeyu)	нами (nami)	вами (vami)	ими (imi)
Prepositional	мне (mne)	тебе (tebe)	нём (nyom)		ней (ney)	нас (nas)	вас (vas)	них (nikh)

There are several things that you need to keep in mind:

• Его is pronounced as yevo, not yego.

• If there’s a preposition before the third-person pronoun, the pronoun gets the prefix н- (n-) before е (e) and и (i). For example, К нему кто-то пришёл (K nemu kto-to prishyol), meaning “Somebody came to him.” 

Compare this to Передай ему привет (Pereday yemu privet), meaning “Say hi to him.” 

Because the prepositional case is always used with a preposition, you can see in the Russian personal pronouns chart that only forms starting with н- (n-) are used.

We’ve prepared a special video for you about Russian personal pronouns and the accusative case. Check it out! 

Here are some examples:

• Я ему передам (Ya yemu peredam) — “I will give it to him.” (Or: “I will tell him what you said.”)
• У неё новый парень (U neyo novyy paren’) — “She has a new boyfriend.”
• Как зовут твоего кота? (Kak zovut tvoyego kota?) — “What’s your cat’s name?”
• Мы пойдём к ней в гости (My poydyom k ney v gosti) — “We will go to her place as guests.”

2. Russian Possessive Pronouns

Possessive pronouns are called притяжательные местоимения (prityazhatyel’nyye myestoimyeniya) in Russian. The Russian possessive pronouns are: 

• мой (moy) — “my” or “mine” 
• твой (tvoy) — “your” or “yours” (for singular possessor)
• наш (nash) — “our” or “ours” 
• ваш (vash) — “your” or “yours” (for plural possessor)

In Russian, possessive pronouns are called притяжательные местоимения (prityazhatyel’nyye myestoimyeniya). These pronouns answer the question “Whose?” and show to whom an object belongs.

Here are a couple more Russian pronouns declension tables:

	Singular
	1st person				2nd person
	Neuter	Masculine	Feminine	Plural	Neuter	Masculine	Feminine	Plural
English	my; mine				your; yours (singular)
Nominative	моё (moyo)	мой (moy)	моя (moya)	мои (moi)	твоё (tvoyo)	твой (tvoy)	твоя (tvoya)	твои (tvoi)
Accusative	моё (moyo)	мой, моего (moy, moyevo)	мою (moyu)	мои, моих (moi, moikh)	твоё (moyo)	твой, твоего (tvoy, tvoyevo)	твою (tvoyu)	твои, твоих (tvoi, tvoikh)
Genitive	моего (moyevo)		моей (moyey)	моих (moikh)	твоего (tvoyevo)		твоей (tvoyey)	твоих (tvoikh)
Dative	моему (moyemu)			моим (moim)	твоему (tvoyemu)			твоим (tvoim)
Instrumental	моим (moim)			моими (moimi)	твоим (tvoim)			твоими (tvoimi)
Prepositional	моём (moyom)			моих (moikh)	твоём (tvoyom)			твоих (tvoikh)

	Plural
	1st person				2nd person
	Neuter	Masculine	Feminine	Plural	Neuter	Masculine	Feminine	Plural
English	my, mine				your, yours (plural)
Accusative	наше (nashe)	наш, нашего (nashe, nashego)	нашу (nashu)	наши, наших (nashi, nashikh)	ваше (vashe)	ваш, вашего (vash, vashego)	вашу (vashu)	ваши, ваших (vashi, vashikh)
Genitive	нашего (nashego)		нашей (nashey)	наших (nashikh)	вашего (vashego)		вашей (vashey)	ваших (vashikh)
Dative	нашему (nashemu)			нашим (nashim)	вашему (vashemu)			вашим (vashim)
Instrumental	нашим (nashim)			нашими (nashimi)	вашим (vashim)			вашими (vashimi)
Prepositional	нашем (nashem)			наших (nashikh)	вашем (vashem)			ваших (vashikh)

There are two options for the accusative case that depend on the animacy of the noun following the pronoun.

Please note that in the words моего (moyego), твоего (tvoy, tvoyego), нашего (nashe, nashego), вашего (vash, vashego), the letter г (g) is pronounced as v. This is an important rule of Russian pronouns’ pronunciation.

Here are some examples of Russian possessive pronouns in a sentence:

• У моего друга есть машина (U moyego druga yest’ mashina) — “My friend has a car.”
• Как твои дела? (Kak tvoi dela?) — “How are you doing?” (Lit. “How are your doings?”)
• Нашему папе сегодня исполняется 50 лет (Nashemu pape segodnya ispolnyayetsya pyat’desyat let) — “Our dad is becoming fifty years old today.”
• Ваша дочь очень красивая (Vasha doch’ ochen’ krasivaya) — “Your daughter is very beautiful.”

3. Russian Reflexive Pronouns

Reflexive pronouns are called возвратные местоимения (vozvratnyye mestoimeniya) in Russian. The Russian reflexive pronouns are:

 себя (sebya) — “-self” 

свой (svoy) — “one’s own” 

сам (sam) — “myself,” “himself,” “herself,” “itself”

5. Russian Determinative Pronouns

There’s just one Russian determinative pronoun: весь (ves’), meaning “all” or “the whole.”

	Neutral	Masculine	Feminine	Plural

6. Russian Interrogative-Relative Pronouns

The Russian interrogative-relative pronouns are: 

• кто (kto) — “who” 
• что (chto) — “what” 
• какой (kakoy) — “what” 
• который (kotoryy) — “which” 
• каков (kakov) — “how” or “what” 
• сколько (skol’ko) — “how much” 
• чей (chey) — “whose” 
• когда (kogda) — “when” 
• где (gde) — “where” (location) 
• куда (kuda) — “where to” (direction)
• как (kak) — “how” 
• откуда (otkuda) — “from where” 
• почему (pochemu) — “why” 
• зачем (zachem) — “what for”

You may wonder why two groups of pronouns—relative and interrogative—are joined into one. This is because, in the Russian language, in both cases the same pronouns are used while their functions in a sentence differ.

Russian interrogative pronouns are called вопросительные местоимения (voprositel’nyye mestoimeniya). They’re used to ask questions, and can also be called вопросительные слова (voprositel’nyye slova), meaning “question words.” Watch our video lesson about interrogative pronouns to learn more about them.

Russian relative pronouns are called относительные местоимения (otnositel’nyye mestoimeniya). They’re used to connect the parts in a complex sentence.

Only several Russian interrogative-relative pronouns are conjugated (yaaaay!). The following pronouns always stay the same:

• когда (kogda) — “when” 
• где (gde) — “where” (location)
• куда (kuda) — “where to” (direction)
• как (kak) — “how” 
• откуда (otkuda) — “from where” 
• почему (pochemu) — “why” 
• зачем (zachem) — “what for” 

That leaves us with seven pronouns. It’s important to know their conjugations because the same words—and the same rules of conjugation—work for the next group of pronouns, which will be indefinite pronouns. So, here’s a Russian pronoun declension chart:

English	What	Who	How many
Nominative	что (chto)	кто (kto)	сколько (skol’ko)
Accusative	что (chto)	кого (kovo)	сколько, скольких (skol’ko, skol’kikh)
Genitive	чего (chego)	кого (kogo)	скольких (skol’kikh)
Dative	чему (chemu)	кому (komu)	скольким (skol’kim)
Instrumental	чем (chem)	кем (kem)	сколькими (skol’kimi)
Prepositional	чём (chyom)	ком (kom)	скольких (skol’kikh)

The following pronouns are conjugation by the rules of adjective conjugation: 

• какой (kakoy) — “what” 
• который (kotoryy) — “which” 
• каков (kakov) — “how” or “what” 
• чей (chey) — “whose” 

For more information, check out our article about Russian adjectives.

Here are some example sentences of interrogative-relative pronouns in a sentence:

• Я не знаю, где мой телефон (Ya ne znayu gde moy telefon) — “I don’t know where my phone is.” 
• О чём ты думаешь? (O chyom ty dumayesh’?) — “What are you thinking about?” 
• Сколько сейчас времени? (Skol’ko seychas vremeni?) — “What time is it now?” 

By the way, do you know another way to ask about time and how to answer this question correctly? If not, read our exhaustive article on time in Russian.

7. Russian Indefinite Pronouns

Indefinite pronouns are called неопределённые местоимения (neopredelyonnyye mestoimeniya) in Russian. These pronouns are formed from Russian interrogative-relative pronouns with the prefix не- (ne-), meaning “not.” There are also some particles that are used to form the indefinite pronouns: 

• кое- (koye-) — “some-” 
• -либо (-libo) — “any-” or “some-” 
• -то (-to) — “some-” 
• -нибудь (-nibud’) — “any-” 

Keep in mind that these particles are written with a hyphen.

Every particle has a meaning. It will be useful to know it in order to form indefinite pronouns from Russian interrogative-relative pronouns with it:

• не- (ne-) — “not” 

This particle means something indefinite or hard to describe. Also, it’s a negation of the following interrogative-relative pronoun, so sometimes it means that there are no options or solutions.

• кое- (koye-) — “some-” 

This also means something indefinite, but in most cases, the meaning is that the speaker doesn’t want to give exact information.

• -либо (-libo) — “any-” or “some-“

It’s tricky to separate the meaning of this particle from the particle -нибудь (-nibud’), meaning “any-,” because they mean the same thing. The only difference is that -нибудь (-nibud’) is very common and widely used in spoken language; it can also be used in all situations. On the other hand, -либо (-libo) creates bookish and official pronouns which are mostly used in questions.

• -нибудь (-nibud’) — “any-” or “some-” 

So, this particle means “at least something,” “at least someone,” “at least somewhere,” “at least somehow,” etc. It’s not important what you’re talking about exactly; just as long as there’s something, it’s fine.

• -то (-to) — “some-” 

This particle is used when the speaker doesn’t find that it’s important (for his story, claim, message, etc.) to name something directly. It helps keep the focus on the facts that really matter. This particle is very commonly used.

We’ve prepared example sentences with all of the possible variations for the most-used pronouns. Try to memorize sentences instead of learning dry rules. :)

1. кто (kto) — “who”

2. некто (nekto) — “someone” 

This is a very bookish word that refers to an unknown person. 

Некто приходил сюда и оставил окно открытым (Nekto prikhod’il syuda i ostavil okno otkrytym) — “Someone came here and left the window opened.” 

2. кое-кто (koye-kto) — “someone” 

Compared to the previous pronoun, this word is much more frequently used in spoken language. Most of the time, a speaker uses this word when talking about someone he knows, usually an opponent of some sort. The speaker could even jokingly refer to themselves as the opponent to be ironic. 

Кое-кто съел всё мороженое, что у нас было (Koye-kto s’yel vsyo morozhenoye, chto u nas bylo) — “Someone specific ate all the ice-cream we had.” 

2. кто-либо (kto-libo) — “anyone” 

This word is also pretty bookish, and in spoken language, it’s better to use кто-нибудь (kto-nibud’), meaning “anybody.” 

Не желает ли кто-либо из присутствующих чаю? (Ne zhelayet li kto-libo iz prisutstvuyushchikh chayu?) — “Does anyone from the people who are here fancy some tea?” 

2. кто-то (kto-to) — “somebody” 

This is a very common word in speech. 

Кто-то мне звонит (Kto-to mne zvonit) — “Someone calls me (on the phone).” 

2. кто-нибудь (kto-nibud’) — “anybody” 

This word is used a lot in spoken language. 

Кто-нибудь хочет пиццу? (Kto-nibud’ khochet pitsu?) — “Does anybody want a pizza?” 

2. что (chto) — “what”

1. нечто (nechto) — “something” (that a speaker has difficulty describing)

This is a very bookish word. 

В темноте было нечто большое и пугающее (V temnote bylo nechto bol’shoye i pugayushcheye) — “There was something big and scary in the darkness.” 

1. кое-что (koye-chto) — “something specific” (the speaker knows what, but doesn’t want to name it)

This is a very common pronoun in spoken language. 

Мне нужно еще кое-что купить, я вас догоню (Mne nuzhno eshchyo koye-chto kup’it’, ya vas dogonyu) — “I need to buy something else; I’ll come up with you.” 

1. что-либо (chto-libo) — “anything” 

This word is also pretty bookish, and when speaking, it’s better to use что-нибудь (chto-nibud’), which also means “anything.” 

Не имеется возможности что-либо предпринять на текущий момент (Ne imeyetsya vozmozhnosti chto-libo predprinyat’ na tekushchiy moment) — “There is no opportunity to do anything at the current moment.” 

1. что-то (chto-to) — “something” 

This is a very common word in spoken language. 

Кто-то мне звонит (Kto-to mne zvonit) — “Someone calls me (on the phone).” 

1. что-нибудь (chto-nibud’) — “anything” 

This word is used a lot in spoken language. 

Ты хочешь что-нибудь? (Ty khochesh’ chto-nibud’?) — “Do you want anything?” 

Please note that not all of the particles are used with every interrogative-relative pronoun, and some of the words change form. Below is a chart of all possible combinations (we’ve excluded old pronouns that are hardly used in modern language). 

You’ll see that some indefinite pronouns have exactly the same translation—especially with the particles -нибудь (-nibud’) and -либо (-libo). To spot the difference in meaning, check out the explanation about indefinite particles above.
