Thanks for the info! I know some Russian but have many Ukrainian friends here in Holland and just decided to start learning Ukrainian and I'm happy to find that I understand very much of Ukrainian already! I will be benefiting from your informative channel, thank you very much!

[@paulhampel8084]

Inna, you are growing this channel in a very smart way. You are a truly skilled teacher with a good sense for how to promote the Ukrainian language and learning.

[@Kevinism]

Дякую же вам за це відео!

[@YesNoWhatYouDoing2]

0:09 by the way, you have a regular phrase in the beginning of every video. Your pronunciation is very unique. "Welcome to my ? tip channel?" tip or chip.

[@nomarini]

Цікавий клас. Бажаю успіху в навчанні.

[@MichaelWheeler-ev1do]

Thank you for this short lesson on your today’s video Inna and also good to see that you’re well. Take care and Slava Ukraini. 💙💛

[@robertsmith4681]

I have seen this letter before but never really knew what it was, assumed is was sort of between x and h in term of how it should be pronounced, S makes a lot more sense in my English/French speaking mind so to speak, thank you.

[@karenbutler198]

Же цікавий урок! Дякую.

[@williamswindler105]

ж/же kind of reminds me of ju in Swedish. It's also used to put emphasis on words and doesn't have any solid English translate. Мені ж подобається ваше відео Інна!

[@Erkilmarl]

That's correct. In Finnish we have -han which has the same meaning. For me this video is very easy to understand.

[@camillebi5387]

супер цікаво!! Ви прийшли розгадати мені одну із загадок української мови!!! ДЯКУЮ😂😂

[@SigMaQuint]

You look good in that T-shirt. Good color harmony. Good to see you in a typical english day.

[@Welikebananas1]

TY for another good one. Noise in distance was present, but not loud enough to be distracting on our end. Cheers!

[@whitewolffearly0013]

In my opinion it made it quite peaceful :)

That's great if it is cloudy there!! I only wish there would be cloud/ or rain in Turkey.😔 As it is too hot here and no rain for ages. Дуже дякую iнна! ❤

My wife says something similar to me, "Я ж тобі казала козел" :) As for your lesson today, сідай 5

[@paulw3182]

The first time I heard Ж was in the lyrics of the song "Der Kommissar" by After the Fire. In America, our understanding of Eastern Europe began with terrible Hollywood stereotypes borrowed from the spy genre especially James Bond. Today, our teachers struggle with American History, its difficult to expect unmotivated college bound students to grasp European geography or past. Hopefully after the war Ukraine will become a destination for America. Your channel inspires viewers beyond language offering insights to Ukrainian history and culture. Concerning your dream, don't allow others opinions or lack of action slow your effort - keep the faith, we believe in you. Slava Ukraini Heróyam Sláva!

[@281992pdr]

Great lesson. And I love the tee-shirt!

[@Dekarmi]

this particle also means that information in the sentence is already known to the audience

[@MorteDallAlto]

That's interesting, could you explain it a bit more? If you have the time, of course :)

[@Dekarmi]

@@MorteDallAlto For instance, "vin buhyi" means he is drunk, and "vin zhe buhyi" means the same. But the particle zh in the latter sentence implies that you (the reader) already know that he is drunk. It just reminds you of that fact, or used as an argument not let him drive the car etc.

[@MorteDallAlto]

@@Dekarmi Thank you so much for the explanation, it really helps! Дякую!

Ž.. the last letter of our alphabet (south slavic) .. Bosnian

Ż in Polish

this is exactly what my face looks like about the use of this letter Ж !

Great video! This letter is tricky!

[@whitewolffearly0013]

My question here, where do you put the particle in the sentence?

[@andresbuilesrestrepo3341]

❤

[@jarvisa12345]

2:07 It should be “How can we translate it?”

[@andrewwarren4206]

Like so? I told you so. So what? So thats it! 😂

[@hinchlnt]

Russian has this particle. I found it difficult to understand except by studying the sentences that contain it. It is my opinion that such sentences be ranked up in C2. Yes, just my opinion. But I have a lot of opinions. Likewise, I will rank Ukrainian sentences with ж just as high. In the C2 category.

[@piotrwodkowski]

Який же корисний урок!

[@oliverkersting2852]

So, ж puts some attitude to the sentence, right?

[@bongertube]

Does it make sense to use it as: я ж ботан (I’m such a geek)?

Slava Ukraini

[@jefersonnascimento995]

how different is Ukrainian from Russian? I'm studying Russian at college now, and wonder if that would make it easier for me to learn Ukrainian

[@jimig.688]

I'm not an expert, but I can give some insight. Russian is a pretty closely related language to Ukrainian, so learning it might help you with some aspects and provide a decent base if you don't have prior experience learning slavic languages. As far as I know the basic grammar is quite similar and there are lots of shared words between the two, but a good amount of those are spelt slightly differently and there are many unique Ukrainian words too and words that correspond with other slavic languages such as Belarusian or Polish instead of Russian. They both use Cyrillic script as you probably know but the Ukrainian variant of it adds a couple of letters and is missing a couple when compared to the Russian one. Keep in mind that both are unique languages with some substantial differences, so if your goal is to only learn Ukrainian, I think you should concentrate on that and not mix it up too much with Russian.

[@jefersonnascimento995]

@@jimig.688 Thank you so much! My main goal is to be a translator of Russian literature. But, portuguese being my mother tongue, it was so easy for me to learn spanish, so I figured that having some knowledge of the russian language, it wouldn't be so difficult for me to learn Ukrainian (or any slavic language).

[@jimig.688]

@@jefersonnascimento995 Well, if you want to learn Russian properly, go ahead. It will work as a good stepping stone into other slavic languages as well when you get a decent understanding of it, and as long as you're not prone to mixing up similar languages :) Slavic languages are generally quite complicated and challenging to learn, but with enough motivation and a clear goal you'll get there, good luck!

Привіт, написав вам на пошту на рахунок співпраці. Подивіться будь ласка)))

[@Wiizl]

Since you have so many videos- maybe you have already covered this topic but I couldn't find it. Can you do a video on main differences between russian and Ukrainian? Like easiest ways to adapt? I know russian and I'd love to learn Ukrainian but since there are lots of similarities I was hoping for some tips and tricks. Because whenever I watch Ukrainian videos with subtitles I always assume the russian pronunciation but the people in video say it in a way I wouldn't expect :)
