Questions & Answers about Собственник принёс доверенность.

Why is the verb принёс in this form?

Принёс is the past tense masculine singular form of принести (to bring).

In Russian, past tense verbs agree with the subject in gender and number:

• он принёс = he brought
• она принесла = she brought
• оно принесло = it brought
• они принесли = they brought

Here the subject is собственник, which is a masculine singular noun, so the verb is принёс.

What case is доверенность, and why doesn’t it seem to change?

Доверенность is the direct object, so it is in the accusative case.

However, for many inanimate feminine nouns, especially nouns of this type, the accusative singular looks the same as the nominative singular. So:

• nominative: доверенность
• accusative: доверенность

That is why the form does not visibly change in this sentence.

Is принёс perfective or imperfective?
