Собственник принёс доверенность.

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.

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.

It is perfective.

The verb принести / принёс presents the action as completed: the owner brought the document, and the result matters.

Its imperfective partner is приносить / приносил. That would be used for meanings like:

• was bringing
• used to bring
• brought in a more process-focused or repeated sense

So Собственник принёс доверенность suggests a completed, one-time action.

The correct spelling is принёс, with ё.

In many Russian texts, especially casual or less carefully marked writing, ё is often replaced by е, so you may also see принес. But for learners, ё is very helpful because it shows both:

• the correct vowel sound
• the stress

Whenever you see ё, it is always stressed. So принёс is pronounced with stress on that syllable.

The usual stress is:

• со́бственник
• принёс
• дове́ренность

So the sentence is pronounced roughly as:

СОБственник приНЁС доВЕренность.

Stress is important in Russian, because it is not always predictable from spelling.

Собственник usually means owner in a fairly formal, legal, or property-related sense.

Compared with similar words:

• собственник = owner, especially in a legal/property sense
• владелец = owner/holder, often a bit broader and more neutral
• хозяин = owner, master, host; often more everyday and less legal

So in a formal context involving documents, property, or legal rights, собственник sounds very natural.

Not always in the narrow English sense.

Доверенность is a formal document that gives someone authority to act on another person’s behalf. In English, this is often translated as power of attorney, but depending on context it can also be closer to:

• authorization
• letter of authorization
• proxy document

So the exact translation can depend on the situation.

Russian does not have articles like English a/an and the.

So Собственник принёс доверенность can mean:

• The owner brought the power of attorney
• An owner brought a power of attorney

In real context, Russian uses word order, context, and shared knowledge to make the meaning clear.

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

Собственник принёс доверенность is a neutral way to say it: subject + verb + object.

But you could also say:

• Доверенность принёс собственник — puts more focus on who brought it
• Принёс доверенность собственник — also possible, with a marked or contextual emphasis

The basic meaning stays the same, but the emphasis changes.

Because it is the subject of the sentence — the person performing the action.

In Russian, the subject of a normal statement is usually in the nominative case. Here:

• собственник = the owner, the one who brought something
• доверенность = the thing brought

So the sentence structure is:

• собственник = subject, nominative
• принёс = verb
• доверенность = object, accusative
