Свіжа петрушка — з великого врожаю.

In Ukrainian, the verb to be is usually omitted in the present tense.

So:

• Свіжа петрушка = Fresh parsley
• з великого врожаю = from a big harvest

The dash helps connect the two parts, almost like English Fresh parsley — from a big harvest or Fresh parsley is from a big harvest.

This kind of structure is especially common in:

• labels
• advertisements
• product descriptions
• slogans

So the dash is not random punctuation; it marks a pause where English would often use is.

Петрушка is in the nominative singular.

Why? Because it is the main noun being described: parsley.

Its dictionary form is:

• петрушка = parsley

In the sentence, it stays in that basic form because it is the subject/topic of the statement.

Because the adjective must agree with the noun it describes.

Here:

• петрушка is feminine
• singular
• nominative

So the adjective also has to be:

• feminine
• singular
• nominative

That gives:

• свіжий = masculine
• свіжа = feminine
• свіже = neuter

So:

• свіжа петрушка = fresh parsley

Yes, свіжа петрушка simply means fresh parsley.

A useful point for learners: in Ukrainian, adjectives usually come before the noun, just like in English:

• свіжа петрушка = fresh parsley
• великий врожай = a big harvest

So this part is very straightforward.

That is a very common question, because з can indeed mean different things.

Here are two important uses:

1. з + genitive = from / out of

   • з Києва = from Kyiv
   • з великого врожаю = from a big harvest

2. з + instrumental = with

   • з другом = with a friend
   • чай з лимоном = tea with lemon

In your sentence, the meaning is clearly from, so з takes the genitive case.

Великого врожаю is in the genitive singular.

That happens because з in the meaning from requires the genitive.

Breakdown:

• великий врожай = a big harvest
• after з it becomes:
  • з великого врожаю = from a big harvest

Both words change:

• великий → великого
• врожай → врожаю

So this phrase is a good example of preposition + genitive.

Врожай means harvest, crop, or yield, depending on context.

In this sentence, з великого врожаю suggests something like:

• from a large harvest
• from an abundant crop
• coming from a good yield

It sounds a bit like advertising or market language, emphasizing that the parsley comes from a plentiful harvest.

Because врожай is a masculine noun, and here it is in the genitive singular.

Dictionary form:

• врожай

Genitive singular:

• врожаю

This is a common pattern for many masculine nouns.

So:

• великий врожай = a big harvest
• з великого врожаю = from a big harvest

Yes, a very literal translation would sound a little unusual in English.

That is because the sentence is probably elliptical or promotional in style. Ukrainian often uses short noun phrases like this in labels or signs.

So depending on context, English might express the idea more naturally as:

• Fresh parsley from a big harvest
• Fresh parsley, from an abundant harvest
• Fresh parsley from this year’s large harvest
  (if the context supports that)

So the Ukrainian is natural, even if the most literal English version sounds slightly odd.

Not exactly.

З великого врожаю means from a big / abundant harvest. It focuses on the size or abundance of the harvest, not directly on the time.

If you wanted to emphasize recently harvested, Ukrainian would use something else.

So the sentence suggests:

• the parsley is fresh
• and it comes from a plentiful harvest

Those are two separate ideas.

Because Ukrainian has no articles.

English distinguishes:

• a big harvest
• the big harvest

Ukrainian does not have separate words for a and the. The meaning is understood from context.

So з великого врожаю could mean:

• from a big harvest
• from the big harvest

In practice, English translation depends on context, not on a separate article in Ukrainian.

Yes, Ukrainian word order is fairly flexible, but changing it changes the emphasis.

The original:

• Свіжа петрушка — з великого врожаю.

This presents fresh parsley first, then adds information about its source.

Other orders are possible in some contexts, but the original sounds natural for:

• a product description
• a market sign
• an advertising line

So even though Ukrainian word order is flexible, this version is probably chosen for focus and style.

It feels more like a label, sign, or slogan than an ordinary conversational sentence.

In everyday speech, someone might say something fuller, depending on what they mean. But in product or market language, short structures like this are very common.

So learners should recognize that this sentence has a headline-like style:

• short
• compact
• no present-tense to be
• slightly promotional

That is why it may feel less like standard spoken English when translated word for word.
