Questions & Answers about Банк знайшов підозрілу операцію.
Why is there no word for the or a in this sentence?
Ukrainian has no articles. So Банк знайшов підозрілу операцію can be understood from context as The bank found a suspicious transaction.
English uses articles all the time, but Ukrainian usually leaves definiteness and indefiniteness to context, word order, or extra words if needed.
Why is it операцію and not операція?
Because операцію is in the accusative case, which is used here for the direct object of the verb знайшов (found).
- Nominative: операція = operation / transaction
- Accusative: операцію = operation / transaction as the thing being found
So:
- Операція підозріла. = The transaction is suspicious.
- Банк знайшов операцію. = The bank found a transaction.
Why is the adjective підозрілу and not підозріла?
