Review Summary
- Noun + -ом (masculine) / -ой (feminine)
常见错误
You forgot to change the ending to the Instrumental case. Always add -ой to feminine nouns when describing tools.
Masculine nouns ending in a consonant need the -ом suffix in the Instrumental case.
While 'с ложкой' isn't strictly wrong, in Russian we prefer the simple Instrumental case for tools without the preposition 'c'.
