Questions & Answers about Це твій хід; підказка не потрібна.

Why is there no word for is in Це твій хід?

In Ukrainian, the present-tense verb to be is often omitted.

So:

• Це твій хід literally looks like This your move/turn
• but it naturally means It’s your turn or This is your move

This is completely normal Ukrainian, not an incomplete sentence.

What does це mean here?

Here це functions like this / that / it is in an identifying sentence.

So Це твій хід is an identification pattern:

• це = this is / it is
• твій хід = your turn / your move

A very natural English translation is It’s your turn.

Why is it твій, not some other word for your?

Твій is the informal singular possessive adjective meaning your.

It agrees with хід, which is:

• masculine
• singular
• nominative

So you get твій хід.

If you were speaking to more than one person, or to one person politely/formally, you would normally say ваш хід instead.
