Breakdown of Банк проверяет мошенническую операцию.
Questions & Answers about Банк проверяет мошенническую операцию.
Because it is the direct object of the verb проверяет (checks / is checking), so it has to be in the accusative case.
- Dictionary form: операция
- Accusative singular: операцию
This is a very common pattern in Russian:
- Банк проверяет операцию. = The bank checks a transaction.
- Я читаю книгу. = I am reading a book.
In both sentences, the thing being acted on goes into the accusative.
Because adjectives in Russian must agree with the noun they describe in:
- gender
- number
- case
Here, операцию is:
- feminine
- singular
- accusative
So the adjective must match it:
- dictionary form: мошеннический = fraudulent
- feminine accusative singular: мошенническую
So:
- мошенническая операция = a fraudulent transaction (nominative)
- проверяет мошенническую операцию = checks a fraudulent transaction (accusative)
