In the above example, the object
квартиры is shifted closer
to the beginning of
the sentence to stress the last word
of the sentence,
покупают (buy). The
speaker emphasizes that in England people usually buy flats (not receive them
from the state).
If we placed the word
квартиры at the end of the sentence, i.e.
В Англии
обычно покупают квартиры, we would stress that in England people usually
buy flats (rather than houses).
In both versions of this Russian sentence the subject is omitted, but it is strongly
implied. Sentences of this kind (with indefinite subjects) are used when it is not
necessary to specify the performer of the action.
Paragraph 12
. The words
дольше and
тяжелее are
the comparative degree of
the adjectives
долгий and
тяжёлый respectively. The suffixes
e and
ee are
commonly used to form comparative adjectives and adverbs. If you prefer, you
can replace the suffix
ee by the colloquial
suffix
