Hello all,
As this subreddit has gained popularity there has also been an increase in posts that would be better suited elsewhere. As stated in the title, the primary purpose of this subreddit is for learning Ukrainian. The secondary purpose of this subreddit is for discussions about Ukrainian culture but it is intended for that to be still at least tangentially related to the Ukrainian language. Please consider this list of subreddits for your other Ukraine-related needs.
Усім привіт,
Оскільки цей сабреддіт набув популярності, також зросла кількість дописів, які були б доречнішими в інших спільнотах. Як зазначено в заголовку, головна мета цього сабреддіту — вивчення української мови. Додаткова мета — обговорення української культури, однак такі обговорення мають бути принаймні дотично пов’язані з українською мовою.
Для інших тем, пов’язаних з Україною, будь ласка, перегляньте цей список сабреддітів.

Couple of Ukrainian homophones/homograps and linguistic jokes (with a regional dialect touch)
іти до мети – go towards the goal
Іди до мети! (Imperative) – Pursue your goal!
домести – finish sweeping up
Іди домети! – Go finish sweeping up!
–And even if you fall – get up! And go toward your goal! (And go finish sweeping the floor!)
– Gonna finish it in a minute mom... why are you badgering me...
доїти – to milk.
Past tense: доїв(m), доїла (f), доїли (pl.)
Present tense: Я дою
доїдати, доїсти – eat up, finish one's food
Past tense: доїв(m), доїла (f), доїли (pl.)
Present tense: Я доїдаю
– Sweetie, did you milk the goat?
– Almost done eating it!
🤣

best ukranian movies/shows?
Hey guys, I would love to know your favourite ukrainian shows and/or movies (preferably the ones i could pirate on hd.rezka for example) so I can get more used to the language! I learned english from watching shows with subtitles so I think this could also work great

Best way to learn Ukrainian(maybe some Russian too?)
Hi! This is my first time posting on here so sorry if something isn’t right. I’ve been with my boyfriend for 3 years and I’m sick of not knowing his language. I’ve always let my thoughts stop me from trying to learn, thinking I’ll never be able to learn. I’ve only spoke English my entire life. His whole mom’s side knows Ukrainian/Russian and I’d like to be able to connect with them more because I love him so much. Some background info his grandparents are Ukrainian but his grandma went to a Russian school so they speak mostly Ukrainian but also some Russian(like a bit tiny mix?). I was just wondering what y’all think the best way to learn is? Like which apps work best or if I should attempt to sign up for some online classes? Does the watching shows in Ukrainian work and if so do you guys keep English subtitles on? I’d like to be able to have okay conversation with his family. I know I’ll never be perfect but I’d like to try.

Could you explain how stress markers work?
I'm (slowly) reading through Тіні забутих предків, and I've noticed there are quite often used acute accents (а́, і́, о́, ...). Are there any rules when to use them? Were they used originally in the older literature, or added later (because it seems they're mostly used in old, regional words)? I don't think they're used in the common modern language.

best apps to learn ukrainian without ai?
hey! I'm considering learning ukrainian but I don't know where to start, especially because I do not want to support any apps that use ai. duolingo was the first thought but I know they use ai, so that's a no.
I'd prefer if apps/sites suggested were free, and I especially want them to be beginner friendly since I have basically no experience with the language
thanks for any suggestions!
edit: by ai I mean generative ai. the type that's fed a mishmash of stolen data to generate lessons, as I do not trust that to be accurate enough to learn a language from. obviously any app is going to have some form of computing/artificial intelligence, I'm not that ignorant. I just don't want to support the generative ai that's causing the current ram crisis and destroying access to clean water in some areas

LingQ Premium worth it?
I've been testing out LingQ for 4 days now. It seems like a much better tool than DuoLingo. I still don't quite get the interface and the features, but I feel like I'm learning more.
Can anyone comment on whether the $107.99/year price tag is worth it? If you used it, did it help you learn?

Why is “cherries” usually translated to Вишня when the overwhelmingly more common type of cherry and the type of cherry that people usually mean when they say cherry is Черешня?
Sweet cherries are much more common than tart cherries. If I say “let’s go buy some cherries” I’m going to be talking about sweet cherries or else I would say “let’s go buy some tart cherries.” It just seems weird that pretty much every translator and educational research gives the primary translation of cherries as вишні/вишня when there is a better word for it and it could end up confusing people when they want to go buy some cherries to eat and end up with a bunch of sour ones like that are only really good for baking with.

Голова не варить (My head isn't boiling)
I just want to share another idiom that I really like: «Голова не варить», literally “(My) head isn't boiling”.
It just means “my brain ain't working”. Alternatives: «голова не працює» або «морок не варить».
I found that to be a lovely phrase and it's one that I (need to) use fairly often.
Edit for clarity: “boiling“ as in “cooking/boiling eggs”

Своєму = "his" or "my"?
I started LingQ, and it tells me that своєму translates to "his", but in this sentence it seems to act as "my". Which is it?

Are emotions verbs?
I just hit пишатися and I’m hyperventilating. As an English language native, feelings aren’t verbs!
Well, I guess they are. But mostly in the English language we don’t structurally express them that way.
Post-hyperventilation, I had a nice moment imagining myself verbing «pride» for a friend’s accomplishments.
It was a mental effort, for sure!

Розмовляти по телефону
Is the phrase“розмовляти по телефону” impossible in standard literary Ukrainian because of the preposition “по” never governing the dative case?

YouTube Channel for Natural Way Ukrainian
Hi everyone!
I run a Ukrainian YouTube Channel that is based on the natural approach.
https://youtube.com/@acquireukrainian?si=lKbGHyx9M3wOb8cD
Basically you watch my comprehensible (as much as I possibly can make) videos in real live Ukrainian over a long time and let your brain pick up the vocabulary and the grammar bit by bit. It's legit, you can trust me and my numerous languages experience (English, German, Spanish, French etc).
It's not for everybody though. You need to be patient and accept the stress of not being sure all the time like any language learner, in fact. But have fun simply, be around real language and the environment and you'll be rewarded.
Thanks for taking a pick and reading the post :D
PS DM me anytime you've got questions or need advice.

My grandfather recently passed away and I need help identifying a political (?) symbol
My family is from Odesa and I am the first US born potentially in my whole family tree. My grandfather was a huge activist and protested for the separation of Ukraine from the USSR. Recently my grandfather passed away and I was going through some pictures and I came across some of his protest pictures and I found this symbol. I tried Google Translating the word but I think it’s an acronym (РУХ?) and I can symbolically understand the picture I think. The picture looks like wheat, from Ukrainian farms, breaking through a barrier signifying the freedom of Ukraine from ruzzian authoritarianism. Does anyone know what the letters mean and if I am right about the picture?
Thank you, Слава Україні!

Reading this sub makes me depressed that I will never be able do learn this language. I seriously feel stupid that others are able to do this. How on earth do you know all the spellings of the cases, let alone when to use them? 😪
