Ceník je tady.

Ceník means price list or price sheet. It is the kind of list that shows how much things cost.

In real life, you might see ceník:

• in a shop
• at a hairdresser
• in a restaurant
• on a website
• in a service business

Grammatically, ceník is a masculine inanimate noun.

Je is the 3rd person singular form of the verb být (to be), so it means is.

So the sentence is built very directly:

• ceník = price list
• je = is
• tady = here

So literally: The price list is here.

In Czech, you normally do need je in a sentence like this. You cannot usually leave it out in standard Czech.

Tady means here.

Yes, it is very close in meaning to zde, which also means here. The main difference is style:

• tady = common, everyday, neutral in speech
• zde = more formal, written, official, or polite

So:

• Ceník je tady. = normal everyday Czech
• Ceník je zde. = more formal

Both are correct.

Because Czech does not have articles like English a and the.

So ceník can mean:

• a price list
• the price list

The exact meaning depends on context.

In Ceník je tady, English will often translate it as The price list is here, because it sounds like a specific, known price list.

No. Czech word order is more flexible than English.

You can also say:

• Tady je ceník.

Both are correct, but the emphasis changes a bit.

• Ceník je tady. = The price list is here.
  This puts more focus on ceník.
• Tady je ceník. = Here is the price list / There’s the price list here.
  This puts more focus on tady or on presenting the item.

So the sentence order can shift depending on what the speaker wants to highlight.

A helpful rough pronunciation is:

TSEH-neek yeh TAH-dih

A few key points:

• c in Czech is pronounced like ts
• é is a long vowel
• í is a long vowel
• j is pronounced like English y in yes
• stress in Czech is usually on the first syllable of each word

So:

• Ceník ≈ TSEH-neek
• je ≈ yeh
• tady ≈ TAH-dih

Ceník is masculine inanimate.

Yes, that matters in Czech, because gender affects things like:

• adjectives
• pronouns
• past tense forms
• some numeral forms
• declension patterns

For example:

• ten ceník = that price list
• nový ceník = new price list

Both ten and nový use masculine inanimate forms to match ceník.

It is in the nominative singular.

That is because ceník is the subject of the sentence:

• Ceník je tady. = The price list is here.

The subject of a basic sentence is normally in the nominative.

Yes, absolutely:

• Tady je ceník.

That is very natural Czech.

Compared with Ceník je tady, starting with tady can sound a bit more like you are pointing something out or introducing it:

• Tady je ceník. = Here is the price list.

So both are fine, but they may feel slightly different in focus.

Yes. Tu also means here, and it is very common.

So these are both possible:

• Ceník je tady.
• Ceník je tu.

The difference is small. Tady may feel a bit more explicit or conversational in some situations, but both are normal.

It is basically neutral everyday Czech.

Nothing in Ceník je tady is especially slangy or especially formal.

If you wanted a more formal version, you might use zde instead of tady:

• Ceník je zde.

But Ceník je tady is perfectly standard and natural.

No. It can refer to both:

• a physical printed price list
• a digital or online price list
• a list of prices in general

So if a business says Ceník je tady, it could mean:

• the printed price list is here
• the price list is on this page / in this place
• the relevant pricing information is here

The exact meaning depends on context.

Yes, this is a natural sentence.

For example, someone might say it when:

• handing you a paper with prices
• showing you a menu of services
• pointing to a posted price list
• telling you where to find pricing information

It is short, clear, and idiomatic Czech.
