Questions & Answers about Цей платіж не мій.

Why is it цей and not ця or це?

Because платіж is a masculine singular noun, and цей must agree with it.

Ukrainian this changes by gender and number:

• цей = this, masculine
• ця = this, feminine
• це = this, neuter
• ці = these, plural

So:

• цей платіж = this payment
• ця картка = this card
• це повідомлення = this message
• ці документи = these documents

Why is it мій and not моя or моє?

For the same reason: мій agrees with the implied noun платіж, which is masculine singular.

Even though English says mine without showing gender, Ukrainian still reflects the gender/number of the thing being talked about:

• Цей платіж не мій. = This payment is not mine.
• Ця картка не моя. = This card is not mine.
• Це місце не моє. = This place is not mine.
• Ці речі не мої. = These things are not mine.

So мій here really means something like mine (masculine thing).

Is there a missing verb? Why is there no word for ?
