Банщик принёс новый банный веник.

• Банщик is nominative singular: it is the subject.
• принёс is the past tense, masculine singular form of the verb.
• новый банный веник is the direct object.

More specifically:

• веник is accusative singular
• новый and банный agree with веник in gender, number, and case

Because веник is masculine singular inanimate, its accusative form looks the same as the nominative form. That is why you see веник, not a visibly different ending.

In Russian, masculine inanimate nouns have:

• nominative singular = accusative singular

So:

• nominative: веник
• accusative: веник

Since веник is the direct object and is inanimate, the accusative looks identical to the dictionary form.

This also affects the adjective:

• новый веник can be nominative
• новый веник can also be accusative, if it is inanimate masculine singular

This is mainly a question of aspect.

• принести / принёс is perfective
• приносить / приносил is imperfective

Here, принёс presents the action as a completed event: he brought it.

By contrast, приносил would sound more like:

• he was bringing it
• he used to bring it
• he brought it at some point, with less focus on the completed result

In a simple sentence describing one finished action, принёс is the most natural choice.

The infinitive is принести.

This verb is somewhat irregular in the past tense:

• принести → принёс (masculine)
• принесла́ (feminine)
• принесло́ (neuter)
• принесли́ (plural)

The change to -нёс is part of the verb’s pattern. You will see the same kind of thing in related verbs:

• нести́ → нёс
• унести́ → унёс
• принести́ → принёс

So this is a pattern worth memorizing, not something fully predictable from the infinitive alone.

Банщик is a noun meaning a bathhouse attendant or a man associated with working in a баня.

It comes from баня plus the suffix -щик, which often forms nouns for:

• occupations
• people associated with an activity or object

Examples of the idea behind -щик:

• someone who does a job
• someone connected with a place or tool

So банщик is literally a person connected with the баня.

Банный is an adjective formed from баня.

It means something like:

• bathhouse-related
• for use in the bathhouse
• of the banya

So банный веник is not just any broom. It is a banya broom / bathhouse whisk, the special kind used in a Russian bathhouse.

Why банный? Because it must agree with веник, which is:

• masculine
• singular
• accusative here, but identical in form to nominative because it is inanimate

So the correct adjective form is банный.

Not quite.

Although веник can mean broom in some contexts, in банный веник it refers to the special bundle of leafy branches used in a баня. People use it to gently strike or massage the body in the steam room.

So in this sentence, веник is really a cultural object specific to the Russian bathhouse tradition, not an ordinary floor broom.

Russian often allows more than one adjective before a noun, just like English.

Here the two adjectives do different jobs:

• новый = describes its condition or state: new
• банный = classifies what kind of whisk/broom it is: bathhouse-related

So the phrase means:

• a new one
• specifically a banya whisk

The order is natural because a more general descriptive adjective like новый often comes before a more classifying adjective like банный.

Yes. Russian word order is much more flexible than English word order.

The neutral order here is:

• Банщик принёс новый банный веник.

But you could rearrange it for emphasis, for example:

• Новый банный веник принёс банщик.
• Банный веник банщик принёс.

These alternatives change the focus or emphasis, not the basic meaning.

English usually depends on word order to show grammatical roles. Russian depends much more on case endings, so the order can move around more freely.

Russian has no articles.

So веник can mean:

• a broom / a whisk
• the broom / the whisk

Which one is meant depends on context.

In this sentence, English might translate it with a or the depending on the situation, but Russian does not mark that difference with separate words.

The main stresses are:

• банщи́к
• принёс
• но́вый
• ба́нный
• ве́ник

A rough pronunciation guide:

• банщи́к → bahn-SHCHEEK
• принёс → pree-NYOS
• но́вый → NO-vy
• ба́нный → BAN-ny
• ве́ник → VYE-neek

A few useful notes:

• ё in принёс is always stressed and pronounced like yo
• щ in банщик is a soft long sh-type sound
• ве in веник sounds like vye, not plain English ve

In grammar, yes: банщик is a masculine noun.

So in this sentence:

• the noun is masculine
• the past tense verb is also masculine: принёс

If the speaker wanted to refer to a woman in that role, a different noun would usually be used, such as банщица, and the verb would change accordingly:

• Банщица принесла новый банный веник.

So the grammar here clearly presents a male subject.
