Очерёдность записана на доске.

In Russian, the verb to be is usually omitted in the present tense.

So where English says The order is written on the board, Russian simply says:

Очерёдность записана на доске.

Literally, it is more like Order written on the board, but Russian grammar understands the missing is automatically.

If you put this into the past or future, a form of быть would appear:

• Очерёдность была записана на доске. = The order was written on the board.
• Очерёдность будет записана на доске. = The order will be written on the board.

Because it agrees with очерёдность, and очерёдность is a feminine noun.

You can often recognize feminine nouns of this type by the ending -ость:

• возможность
• скорость
• очерёдность

So the short-form passive participle must also be feminine:

• masculine: записан
• feminine: записана
• neuter: записано
• plural: записаны

Записана is a short-form passive participle from the verb записать.

This form is commonly used like an adjective in the predicate, especially to describe a resulting state:

• Письмо написано. = The letter is written.
• Адрес записан. = The address is written down.
• Очерёдность записана на доске. = The order is written down on the board.

So here it does not focus on who wrote it, but on the fact that it has been written down and is now there.

Because it is the grammatical subject of the sentence.

Even though English often thinks of this kind of sentence as passive, Russian still treats очерёдность as the thing being described:

• Очерёдность — what is being talked about
• записана — what is true about it
• на доске — where it is written

So очерёдность stays in the nominative.

Because на доске expresses location: on the board.

After на, Russian uses different cases depending on the meaning:

• на + accusative = movement onto something
• на + prepositional = location on something

Compare:

• записать на доску = to write onto the board
• записано на доске = written on the board

Here we are talking about where the writing is, not movement, so we use the prepositional case:

• доска → на доске

Очерёдность means order, sequence, or who goes in what order.

It is a bit more abstract and formal than just очередь.

A useful contrast:

• очередь = a line, queue, or one’s turn
• очерёдность = the order/sequence of turns or items

So in this sentence, очерёдность suggests that the order has been listed or written down.

This is a very common question.

Both verbs are related to writing, but they are not identical:

• писать / написать = to write
• записывать / записать = to write down, note down, record

With something like an order, schedule, or list, записать often sounds more natural because the idea is to note it down.

So:

• Очерёдность записана на доске = The order has been written down on the board.

If you used написана, it would not necessarily be wrong in every context, but записана better matches the idea of recording information.

Yes. Russian word order is fairly flexible, and the basic meaning stays the same.

For example:

• Очерёдность записана на доске.
• На доске записана очерёдность.

Both are grammatical.

The difference is mainly focus:

• Очерёдность записана на доске. focuses first on the order
• На доске записана очерёдность. focuses first on the board / where it is written

So the original sentence is neutral and natural, but other orders are possible depending on emphasis.

Yes. It suggests a completed result.

The verb behind it, записать, is perfective, so the sentence presents the order as something that has already been written down and is now in that state.

That is why the sentence feels closer to:

• has been written down
• is written down
• is already written down

rather than an ongoing action like is being written.

The main stress points are:

• очерёдность → stress on ё
• запи́сана
• доске́

So:

очерёдность запи́сана на доске́

A useful reminder: in Russian, ё is always stressed when written as ё.

That makes очерёдность easier to read than many other Russian words.
