If I wrote "in the restaurant on Pushkin street" or "in the restaurant on Tverskaya street" what would be the endings for Pushkin or Tverskaya?
в ресторане на тверская улице
в ресторане на пушкинская улице
улицa is feminine and takes ending "e" for prepositional case.
What is the ending for <<тверская>> and <<пушкинская>>?
Do these adjectives take on a prepositional ending or just the nominative endings for adjectives?
Thanks
в ресторане на улице тверской
в ресторане на улице пушкина
Thats how I would say it, but if you wanna use the adjectives....
в ресторане на тверской улице
в ресторане на пушкинской улице
Thanks alot!

But Тверский is the adjective of the city of Тверь
Therefore it would be в ресторане на Тверской улице.
There is a road in Moscow called Тверская улица i believe.
I think it works like this:
Streets named after people, events, etc. the name goes after, in the genitive case.
Площадь революции - Revolution Square
Улица Горького - Gor'kiy Street (Maksim Gor'kiy, famous author)
Streets named after places, the name goes before in the adjectival form:
Невский проспект - Neva Avenue (named after Petersburg's Neva river)
Oh..i just assumed it was feminine...i dont remember any roads like that....
WTF! I knew I should have posted something right after you said it should be на улице Тверя. :twisted:Quote:

Since улице is gender feminine, case prepositional, and number singular, the adjective must be the same.
In accordance with this rule the endings for adjectives must be:
Он в ресторане на тверской улице
Он в ресторане на пушкинской улице
Tverskaya street is a street in Moscow that can be seen at: http://www.voentour.com/excursion/tverskaya.shtml
I'm sure it would be Он в ресторане на улице ПушкинаQuote:

Зверь is "he", masculine, so if there exist any "streat of the Beast", it could be said
на улице Зверя
btw, isn't saibot native? his post is 100% correct
nope...not native. But thanks for the kind words. :D
Как уж заговорили о Твери—
[запевая]
Эх... вдоль по Питерской, по Тверской-Ямской
Да ох ой по Тверской-Ямской да с колокольчиком.
...
Эх... не лёд трещит, не комар пищит
Это кум до кумы судака тащит
[/запевания]
For those of you who live on the left coast, do you know that the Russians came down from Аляска and set up a fort north of SF? Fort Ross. Крепость Росс.
Annual festival there at the end of July, near my birthday this year. Do a google search, you'll find smth, look at slavyanka.org, and plan to be there! I'm locked up here on the right coast without enough $ or vacation days left this year. You go, I'll give you an intro. !!
I visited Fort Ross a few times, one visit coincided with the russian festival. It was quite impressive: cannon shooting, theatrical performance, a sailboat arriving to a small bay out of thick fog etc!Quote:

Who would of expected so many рыжики (rizhiki) to be growing in Calfironia?
I've heard a lot of рыжики grow in Australia, but noobody picks them because people think they are poisonous. May be they are really poisonous there, I don't know.
