Questions & Answers about Ветеринар тут.

Why is there no word for is in Ветеринар тут?

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

So:

• Ветеринар тут. = The veterinarian is here.
• literally: Veterinarian here.

This is completely normal Ukrainian grammar, not an incomplete sentence.

If you included є (is / there is), it would usually sound different in meaning or emphasis, and in this sentence it is normally omitted.

What case are the words in here?

Both words are in their basic, dictionary forms:

• ветеринар — nominative singular
• тут — an adverb, so it does not change for case

Because ветеринар is the subject of the sentence, the nominative case is what you expect.

Does ветеринар only mean a male veterinarian?

Grammatically, ветеринар is a masculine noun. It can refer to:

• a male veterinarian, or
• a veterinarian in a general sense, if the person’s gender is not being emphasized

If you specifically want to refer to a female veterinarian, you may also hear ветеринарка, though usage can vary by speaker and situation.

So in this sentence, ветеринар does not necessarily tell you the person is male; it may just be the standard job title.
