Breakdown of Десятий переказ коштів уже у виписці з рахунку.
Questions & Answers about Десятий переказ коштів уже у виписці з рахунку.
Why is десятий used here, and why does it end in -ий?
Десятий is the ordinal number tenth. It behaves like an adjective in Ukrainian, so it must agree with the noun it describes in gender, number, and case.
Here it describes переказ, which is:
- masculine
- singular
- nominative
So the correct form is десятий.
Compare:
- десятий переказ = the tenth transfer
- десята операція = the tenth operation
- десяте повідомлення = the tenth message
What case is переказ in?
Переказ is in the nominative singular.
It is the main noun of the sentence, the thing being talked about. Even though Ukrainian often omits the verb is, the subject still usually appears in the nominative:
- Десятий переказ коштів уже у виписці з рахунку.
Literally, the structure is something like:
- The tenth transfer of funds [is] already in the account statement.
Why is it переказ коштів, not переказ кошти?
Because коштів is in the genitive plural.
In Ukrainian, when one noun describes what another noun relates to, the second noun is often put in the genitive. So:
- переказ коштів = transfer of funds
- переказ грошей = transfer of money
This is very common:
- чашка чаю = a cup of tea
- центр міста = the city center
- виписка з рахунку = statement from the account
So коштів is not the subject. It depends on переказ.
What is the difference between кошти and гроші?
Both can relate to money, but кошти is often more formal or financial in tone.
In banking or official language, кошти is very common:
- переказ коштів
- отримання коштів
- нестача коштів
Гроші is more everyday and general:
- У мене немає грошей. = I don’t have money.
- Він витратив багато грошей. = He spent a lot of money.
So in a sentence about a bank statement, коштів sounds natural and professional.
Why is у виписці in that form?
Because it comes after the preposition у in the sense of in/on/inside, which here requires the locative case.
The base form is:
- виписка = statement / extract / record
In the locative singular it becomes:
- у виписці = in the statement
This pattern is common for many feminine nouns ending in -ка:
- книга → у книзі
- аптека → в аптеці
- виписка → у виписці
Why does з рахунку use з and the genitive case?
Because з here means from, and from usually takes the genitive in Ukrainian.
The noun is:
- рахунок = account
After з:
- з рахунку = from the account
So:
- виписка з рахунку literally means statement from the account
- in natural English: account statement or bank statement
This is a fixed and very common pattern:
- лист з банку = a letter from the bank
- дані з системи = data from the system
- гроші з рахунку = money from the account
Why is there no word for is in the sentence?
In the present tense, Ukrainian often omits the verb to be.
So instead of saying something with an explicit present-tense is, Ukrainian normally just puts the parts together:
- Він лікар. = He is a doctor.
- Книга на столі. = The book is on the table.
- Десятий переказ коштів уже у виписці з рахунку. = The tenth transfer of funds is already on the statement.
There is a form є, and it can appear, but it is often omitted in ordinary present-tense sentences.
You could say:
- Десятий переказ коштів уже є у виписці з рахунку.
That sounds a bit more explicit, but the version without є is very normal.
What exactly does уже mean here?
Уже means already.
It shows that something has happened or appeared by this point, perhaps earlier than expected or earlier than before.
So here it suggests:
- the tenth transfer has now appeared in the statement
- it is no longer missing
Уже is very common in everyday Ukrainian:
- Я вже вдома. = I’m already home.
- Вона вже знає. = She already knows.
- Платіж уже пройшов. = The payment has already gone through.
Can the word order be changed?
Yes. Ukrainian word order is fairly flexible, although different orders can shift emphasis.
The original:
- Десятий переказ коштів уже у виписці з рахунку.
This puts focus first on the tenth transfer.
Other possible orders:
- Уже десятий переказ коштів у виписці з рахунку.
- У виписці з рахунку вже десятий переказ коштів.
These may sound slightly different in emphasis, but the basic meaning stays similar.
English relies heavily on word order for grammar. Ukrainian uses case endings more, so word order is freer.
Why is it у, not в?
У and в usually mean the same thing here. The choice is often made for ease of pronunciation and smoother sound.
Ukrainian frequently alternates between them to avoid awkward consonant clusters.
So both of these are possible:
- у виписці
- в виписці
But у виписці sounds smoother after уже:
- уже у виписці
This kind of alternation is very common:
- у Києві / в Києві
- увесь / весь
- і / й
Is виписка з рахунку the normal way to say bank statement?
Yes, it is a normal and natural expression.
Literally it means:
- statement/extract from the account
In banking contexts, it corresponds well to:
- account statement
- bank statement
Depending on context, Ukrainian may also use longer phrases such as:
- банківська виписка
- виписка з банківського рахунку
But виписка з рахунку is perfectly standard.
Could this sentence sound a little unusual without context?
Yes, slightly.
Grammatically it is fine, but in real life a speaker might more often say something a bit fuller, depending on what they want to emphasize, for example:
- Десятий переказ коштів уже є у виписці з рахунку.
- У виписці з рахунку вже відображено десятий переказ коштів.
- Десятий переказ уже є у виписці.
The original sentence is still understandable and correct, but it feels a little compressed, like a status update or banking note rather than casual conversation.
How would a learner know that десятий means an ordinal number and not just the number ten?
Because Ukrainian distinguishes clearly between cardinal and ordinal numbers.
- десять = ten
- десятий = tenth
Ordinal numbers behave like adjectives:
- перший = first
- другий = second
- третій = third
- десятий = tenth
So when you see десятий before a noun, it means the noun is being numbered in a sequence:
- десятий переказ = the tenth transfer
- not ten transfers
If it meant ten transfers, you would expect something like:
- десять переказів = ten transfers
