Questions & Answers about Срок аренды указан в договоре хранения.
Why is аренды in the genitive case?
Because Russian often uses the pattern срок + genitive noun to mean the term/period of something.
So:
- срок аренды = the rental term / term of the lease
- срок действия = period of validity
- срок хранения = storage period
In English, we often use of or a noun modifier, but in Russian this relationship is commonly shown by the genitive case.
What case is срок, and what is its role in the sentence?
Срок is in the nominative singular because it is the subject of the sentence.
The structure is:
- Срок аренды = the subject
- указан = the predicate
- в договоре хранения = a prepositional phrase telling you where it is specified
A good way to test this is to ask: What is specified?
Answer: Срок аренды.
