Compare these words. You can see theyre alike. There are many borrowed and international words in Russian. English words with the ending «sion» are used in Russian with the ending «сия».
Nouns with the ending «tion» have the endings «ция».
Of course, the meanings of such words in English and in Russian are not always identical.
Complection color of skin.
Комплекция body type.
Nevertheless, you already know several tens of thousands of such words, applying this scheme.
Кто ты (Вы, он, она) по профессии?
Я учитель (по профессии).
For some professions one word is used in Russian. For others different words are used depending on the gender.
!Учитель is used for the teacher at school, преподаватель is used for the teacher at university.

Lesson 4. Imperfective verbs of the present tense. Special cases of verbs
All verbs in Russian have an initial form with standard endings. Most verbs have an ending ть. Less often ти and very rarely чь. In Russian like in many other languages a verb changes its ending for persons.
Дела -ть (to do)
я дела ю
мы дела ем
ты дела ешь
вы (Вы) дела ете
он/она/оно дела ет
они дела -ют
You can see. To conjugate a verb, you need to replace the ending ть (ти, чь) with the others. There are 6 endings in the present tense. There are two groups of conjugations of verbs:
First conjugation verbs ending with ать, ять (читать, объяснять)
Second conjugation verbs ending with еть, ить (смотреть, учить)
This is a general rule. There are exceptions and special cases that you must just remember. Lets start with the first group of verbs It is important to mention is that after 8 letters (к, г, ш, ж, щ, ч, х, ц) we dont write the endings: -ю, -ют. We use the endings -у, -ут instead.
Понимать
Гулять
Упражнение 1. Conjugate the verbs of the first conjugated group in the pattern
Second conjugation verbs (еть, ить, ти)
After 8 letters (к, г, ш, ж, щ, ч, х, ц) we dont write the endings: -ю/ят. We use the endings -у, -ат instead.
Говорить speak
Смотреть look
Учить learn (what) or teach (whom)
In Russian there are affirmative (ты говоришь), interrogative (ты говоришь?) аnd negative sentences (ты не говоришь).
A direct question is asked only with the help of intonation, the word order does not change, and auxiliary verbs are not used. If there is a question word, it is usually at the beginning of the sentence. Negation is formed through the addition of particles not before the verb.
!Делаешь? In Russian, there is a second way of asking questions with verbs: Делаешь ли ты?
The verb comes first, after it the particle ли, and then the pronoun or noun. This method is similar to the form of an indirect question in English. Like: She asked if he makes Делает ли он?
Упражнение 2. Conjugate the verbs of the second conjugated group in the pattern.
говорить, смотреть, учить, помнить
Special cases of verbs:
First conjugation verbs
авать/овать (they are replaced with the same endings)
Давать, рисовать, фотографировать, использовать, узнавать, подавать, сдавать, вставать, преподавать.
Рисовать
Second conjugation verbs
готовить, любить
