Questions & Answers about Незважаючи на шахрайство, переказ коштів не скасували.

What does незважаючи на mean here?

Незважаючи на is a fixed expression meaning despite or in spite of.

Literally, it comes from the idea of not looking at / not paying attention to, but in modern Ukrainian it usually functions as a set phrase, so it is best learned as one unit:

• незважаючи на дощ = despite the rain
• незважаючи на труднощі = despite the difficulties

So in this sentence, it introduces a concession: something happened or did not happen despite some obstacle or negative circumstance.

Why is шахрайство in that form after на?

After незважаючи на, Ukrainian normally uses the accusative case.

So шахрайство here is accusative singular. The reason it does not visibly change is that шахрайство is a neuter inanimate noun, and for this type of noun the nominative and accusative singular are the same:

• nominative: шахрайство
• accusative: шахрайство

So the case is different grammatically, even though the form looks identical.
