Making exercises on short forms of adjectives I find достойный; достоин, достойна.... Surely some rule makes necessary this и in masc. and not a й like one could wait. And it would be of application in other cases. Please, which is it? Since in no book I see a reference to it.
Why do you expect the Й there? The E is what usually there.Quote:

I underlined stresses there.
And think of достоин as of an exception.
Well, I see that the additional vowel is inserted just in the genre that needs it. I thought that once put in the masc. it should be kept in every genre. So in южный I see: южен, южнa: южно, южны. And here it should be: достой-ен, достойна, -о, -ы. Here putting together й-е finally it sould be достоен, bah, little irregularity. Thank you.
All of them are wrong. There are no such words.Quote:

1) As for южный. I was just making an exercise with the first word that I thought. I see that it has no short form. But if it has....
2) As for достоин. I said that достоeн should be its regular form, being достоин a little irregularity. However always that I mention the word "irregularity" in conection with Russian grammar I say that are the regularities that one must find :search: :lol:
Thank you.
Ok, now I get that you wanted to say. It's my awful English wich caused the misunderstanding. :oops: Thank you for making it clear! :beer:Quote:

Very curious. Thanks.
And you couldn't have heard mine at all cause of it's nonexistence. :lol: I can only read and write in English a little, I almost hadn't an opportunity to speak it ever. Good day to you! :flazhok:Quote:
