Russian Instrumental Case

Welcome to the final lesson about Russian cases. The sixth and final case is the instrumental case. The instrumental case is used to illustrate the concepts of 'with' and 'by means of'. Another way to think about it is that it represents the ‘instrument’ that was used to carry out the action.

Unfortunately it is hard to learn Russian without first learning about the cases. But after this lesson you will be able to recognise and form all six Russian cases, so we can start concentrating on more practical Russian such as vocabulary and using verbs.

Using the Intrumental Case: By means of

The instrumental case is used to express the concept of “by means of”. In English this is normally done using the words “using” or “with”. In English these words can have different meanings, so it’s important to recognise when they are meaning “by means of”.

Examples.

Иван пишет карандашом - Ivan writes with a pencil.

Я ем суп ложкой - I eat soup with a spoon.

Олег режет мясо ножом - Oleg cuts the meat with a knife.
