Я сделал перевод денег через приложение.

Сделал is the perfective past form of сделать, so it presents the action as completed.

In this sentence, the speaker means something like I completed/made a money transfer through the app. That is why сделал fits well.

If you said делал, it would sound more like:

• I was doing
• I used to do
• I was in the process of doing

So:

• Я сделал перевод денег через приложение. = I made/completed a money transfer through the app.
• Я делал перевод денег... = I was making a money transfer... / I was working on it...

Russian can express this idea in more than one natural way.

• Я сделал перевод денег через приложение.
• Я перевёл деньги через приложение.

Both are correct, but they are slightly different in style:

• сделал перевод = made a transfer
  This is a bit more formal or transaction-focused.
• перевёл деньги = transferred the money / sent the money
  This is often more direct and conversational.

So сделал перевод денег is very similar to English made a money transfer.

Because перевод often takes the thing being transferred in the genitive case.

So:

• перевод денег = transfer of money

Here, деньги changes to денег, which is the genitive plural form.

This structure is very common in Russian noun phrases:

• чашка чая = a cup of tea
• центр города = the city center
• перевод денег = money transfer

If you use the verb instead, then you would usually get the accusative:

• Я перевёл деньги. = I transferred the money.

So compare:

• перевод денег → noun + genitive
• перевёл деньги → verb + accusative

It is in the accusative case because it follows the preposition через.

• через normally requires the accusative
• приложение is a neuter noun
• for many neuter inanimate nouns, the nominative and accusative forms are the same

So:

• nominative: приложение
• accusative: приложение

That is why the form does not visibly change.

Yes. Через приложение literally means through the app or via the app.

In Russian, через is often used to express the means/channel by which something is done:

• через интернет = through the internet / online
• через банк = through the bank
• через приложение = through the app / via the app

So it does not mean physically passing through something. It often means by means of or using.

Sometimes yes, but the nuance changes.

• через приложение emphasizes the channel/tool:
  through/via the app
• в приложении means in the app, emphasizing the location/interface

Compare:

• Я сделал перевод через приложение.
  = I made the transfer using the app.
• Я сделал перевод в приложении.
  = I made the transfer in the app.

In many real-life situations both are possible, but через приложение is often the more natural choice when stressing the method.

Not always. Russian often drops subject pronouns when the meaning is clear from context.

So both can work:

• Я сделал перевод денег через приложение.
• Сделал перевод денег через приложение.

Including Я can make the sentence:

• clearer
• more explicit
• slightly more contrastive or emphatic

For example, Я сделал... may sound like I did it as opposed to someone else.

Then the past tense form changes:

• Я сделал перевод денег через приложение. = said by a male speaker
• Я сделала перевод денег через приложение. = said by a female speaker

In Russian past tense, the verb agrees with gender in the singular:

• masculine: сделал
• feminine: сделала
• neuter: сделало
• plural: сделали

This is a very important feature for English speakers, since English past tense verbs do not change for gender.

Yes. Russian word order is more flexible than English word order, although not completely free.

The neutral order here is:

• Я сделал перевод денег через приложение.

But other orders are possible depending on emphasis:

• Перевод денег я сделал через приложение.
  Emphasis on the money transfer
• Через приложение я сделал перевод денег.
  Emphasis on through the app
• Я через приложение сделал перевод денег.
  Also possible, with focus on the method

The original sentence is the most neutral and natural if you are simply stating the fact.

Usually, yes. In most everyday contexts, перевод денег means a money transfer, often a bank transfer or electronic transfer.

Depending on context, it could refer to:

• sending money to another person
• transferring funds between accounts
• making a payment through a banking app

If you want to be more specific, Russian can say things like:

• банковский перевод = bank transfer
• денежный перевод = money transfer / remittance

But перевод денег by itself is already very natural.

No. Russian has no articles like a, an, or the.

So перевод could mean:

• a transfer
• the transfer

The exact meaning depends on context.

In this sentence, English might translate it as either:

• I made a money transfer through the app.
• I made the money transfer through the app.

Russian leaves that distinction to context rather than using articles.

Yes, and it is very natural.

Compare:

• Я сделал перевод денег через приложение.
  = I made a money transfer through the app.
• Я отправил деньги через приложение.
  = I sent money through the app.

The second version sounds a bit more direct and action-oriented.
The first version sounds a bit more like talking about the transaction itself.

Both are common, and which one you choose depends on style and context.
