ru-text — Russian Text Quality
Independent Russian text quality reference by Arseniy Kamyshev.
With gratitude to the authors whose work shaped modern Russian text standards.
Credits and recommended reading: references/sources.md
Style priority: if the user explicitly requests a specific style (casual, academic, SEO, literary, etc.), their prompt overrides these default rules where they conflict. These rules are defaults, not mandates.
Reviewing vs. rewriting: when checking or proofreading existing text or a file, return the corrected version plus a list of changes — do not silently overwrite the source file. Rewrite a file in place only when the user explicitly asks.
Always-On: Typography
Apply these rules to ALL Russian text output without exception.
| Rule | Wrong | Correct |
|---|---|---|
| Primary quotes: guillemets | "текст" | «текст» |
| Nested quotes: lapki | «"вложенные"» | «„вложенные“» |
| Em dash with spaces | слово - слово | слово — слово |
| En dash for ranges, no spaces | 10-15 дней | 10–15 дней |
| NBSP after single-letter prepositions | в начале (breakable) | в\u00A0начале |
| Ellipsis: single character | ... | … |
| Digit groups with thin spaces | 1000000 | 1 000 000 |
| Decimal comma (not dot) | 3.14 | 3,14 |
| Ordinal with hyphen | 1ый, 2ой | 1-й, 2-й |
| Numero sign | No. 5, #5 | № 5 |
| Abbreviations with NBSP | т.д., т.е. | т. д., т. е. |
| Ruble symbol after number | 1500 руб | 1 500 ₽ |
