Το αντίγραφο κίνησης λογαριασμού δείχνει τη λογιστική ημερομηνία.

There are two main clues:

• δείχνει means shows, so we can ask:
  • What shows? → το αντίγραφο κίνησης λογαριασμού
  • What does it show? → τη λογιστική ημερομηνία
• τη marks λογιστική ημερομηνία as the accusative phrase, so that is the direct object.

Also, the word order is the most neutral one in Greek:

• subject
  • verb
    • object

So this sentence is structured very naturally.

Because αντίγραφο is a neuter singular noun, so it takes the neuter singular definite article το.

A learner-friendly way to see it:

• το αντίγραφο = the copy / the statement

The ending -ο often signals a neuter noun in Greek, and αντίγραφο is one of those common neuter nouns.

They are both in the genitive singular, which often corresponds to English of.

So literally the phrase is something like:

• αντίγραφο κίνησης λογαριασμού
• copy of movement/activity of account

More naturally in English, that becomes something like:

• account activity statement
• account statement
• statement of account activity

The forms are:

• κίνηση → κίνησης = of activity / of movement
• λογαριασμός → λογαριασμού = of account

So Greek is stacking genitives to show relationships between the nouns.

This is very common in formal, technical, administrative, and banking Greek.

Greek often uses a compact noun phrase like:

• αντίγραφο κίνησης λογαριασμού

instead of a more expanded version such as:

• αντίγραφο της κίνησης του λογαριασμού

The shorter version sounds more like a standard label or banking term. English does something similar with compressed phrases like:

• account statement
• payment date
• bank account number

So the lack of articles here is not strange; it is typical of this style.

Greek often uses the singular noun κίνηση in banking language to mean:

• activity
• movement
• transaction history

So even if English might naturally use a plural idea such as transactions, Greek can use the singular abstract noun κίνηση.

In other words, κίνηση λογαριασμού is not just one single movement; it can refer to the account’s activity as a whole.

δείχνει is:

• present tense
• active voice
• 3rd person singular

It comes from the verb δείχνω = to show

So δείχνει means:

• he/she/it shows
• shows

In this sentence, the subject is το αντίγραφο, so in English it is it shows.

Because this whole phrase is the direct object of δείχνει, so it is in the accusative singular.

All the words agree with one another:

• τη = feminine singular accusative article
• λογιστική = feminine singular accusative adjective
• ημερομηνία = feminine singular accusative noun

This is a good example of adjective agreement in Greek: the adjective must match the noun in:

• gender
• number
• case

So λογιστική matches ημερομηνία exactly.

In Modern Greek, the accusative feminine article την often loses its final -ν before many consonants.

Since λογιστική begins with λ, it is very normal to write:

• τη λογιστική ημερομηνία

You may also see την in some contexts, styles, or speakers’ preferences, but τη here is completely standard and natural.

So for a learner, the important thing is:

• τη λογιστική ημερομηνία is correct
• την λογιστική ημερομηνία may also appear, but τη is the expected form here

Yes, Greek word order is more flexible than English word order.

The sentence as given is the most neutral:

• Το αντίγραφο κίνησης λογαριασμού δείχνει τη λογιστική ημερομηνία.

But Greek could move things around for emphasis, contrast, or style. For example:

• Τη λογιστική ημερομηνία δείχνει το αντίγραφο κίνησης λογαριασμού.

That would put more focus on τη λογιστική ημερομηνία.

Still, the original order is the most straightforward one for a learner and the most natural in ordinary explanation or documentation.

Yes, it works very much like a standard banking/administrative phrase.

Literally, the parts are:

• αντίγραφο = copy / statement
• κίνηση = movement / activity / transaction history
• λογαριασμός = account

But as a whole, the phrase is best understood as a normal banking term rather than translated word by word every time.

This is very common in Greek official language: several nouns are packed together into one compact phrase, and the full meaning comes from the whole expression.

Yes, the accent marks matter: they show which syllable is stressed.

Word by word, the stress is on:

• αν-τί-γρα-φο
• κί-νη-σης
• λο-γα-ρια-σμού
• δεί-χνει
• λο-γι-στι-κή
• η-με-ρο-μη-νί-α

A rough pronunciation guide could be:

• To an-TI-gra-fo KI-ni-sis lo-ga-ria-SMOU DHIH-khnee ti lo-yi-STI-ki i-me-ro-mi-NI-a

A few helpful sound notes:

• δ sounds like th in this
• χ before ι / ει is a soft sound, a bit like the German ich sound
• ει, η, and ι are all pronounced like ee in Modern Greek

So the written accents are important because they tell you where to stress each word.
