  1. Hello, the verb after почти́, is it always in past tense? In the first example, зако́нчилась is used although in the English translation, the toothpaste has not run out. Thanks.

    • Learn Russian Words says:

      Hello Anita,

      “Почти” literally means “almost”, you can simply say “almost finished”.

      So the tense of the verb is the same as it would be in English.
