The study of the orthogram "alternating vowels at the root of the word"

In Russian there is a spelling "alternating vowels". Words that obey this rule of writing can not be verified with the help of selecting single-root words, as in the case of a word that is not stressed at the root. Their writing sometimes depends on the consonant that follows the spelling, from the meaning of the word or from the used suffix. Often such words cause difficulties for schoolchildren, so the teacher needs to devote more time to studying the rule.

The roots, in which there are alternating vowels, it is desirable to learn by heart and be able to distinguish them from other morphemes, similar in sound or writing.

The choice of writing options depends on several factors. In the zor-, zar-in unstressed position (for example, dawn), the letter A in the root is written on the letter, and in the opposite case (for example, dawns) is O. The exception in this case is the word zoryanka, which denotes the name of the bird.

Alternating vowels in the roots of the mountains, gar-, clan-, clone-, creat-, tvar-: under stress is written A (tan, bow, creature), and in unstressed position O (sunbathe, bend, create). The exception is the words utensils, cinders, and a snare. Also you need to pay attention to the roots of fusions and swimmers. In words with them is written A in the unstressed case (float, fin, etc.). The exception is the noun swimmer and swimmer. It should be noted that the word "quicksand" in the root is written "Y" according to the sound.

There are cases when alternating unstressed vowels depend on the consonant, to which the morpheme ends . These are words with the roots of lag-, lies-, rast-, ros-, kas-, kosn-. For example, to assume - to assume, grow - to grow, etc. There are words-exceptions that need to be remembered. For example, Rostov, a sprout, a canopy, etc.

In some words, alternating vowels are selected depending on the meaning of the root. So, for example, writing in words with mok-, mac- is defined. If parts of the speech are used in the sense of "becoming wet, letting fluid", then it is used wet (soak in the rain, soak the laundry). When this root means "immerse in something", then it is used to dunk (dunk in water).

This rule applies to words that include parts such as flat and equal. "O" in unstressed position is written, if the meaning is "smooth, smooth". The root is equally used in cases where "equal, equal" is meant. For example: compare the expression, the straight road.

In order for students to consolidate the orthogram "alternating vowels in the root", the exercises must be selected in such a way that they include words with different cases of writing. It is important for children to periodically repeat exceptions. They are not so much for a given orthogram, which is why it is quite easy to remember. And with the periodic fixing of the material for the students, it should not be difficult to determine which letter should be in the word.

It should be mentioned that some roots (ber, bir, der, dir, etc.) are written depending on the suffix that is after it. In this case, if there is a -a, then the letter AND is inserted, otherwise - E. For example, typing - takes, razderu - rips, etc.
