squirrella survived first day working at both jobs.

Lviv 2 weeks ago

My beloved’s home city is pronounced kind of like “loo-we-oo” with emphasis on the we.

So v in english looks like B in Ukrainian and sounds like w. Simple. :P

The days of the week are hard! 4 weeks ago

They sound roughly like this:
Monday – ponygeeloc
Tuesday – vivtoroc
Wednesday – cereda
Thursday – chetlar
Friday – pyatnyitzya
Saturday – subota
Sunday – naygeelya

I can’t 100% claim I’ve learned all of those…I can randomly remember any one of them and be 80% sure of which day it is I’m saying, and have NO clue how to write them. The Ukraine alphabet is a mystery to me.

Dobrogo rancun – good morning
dobry vechir – good evening
dobry noiche – good night
pan – Mr.
panyi – Mrs.

Of course all the spelling is wrong, this is just how it sounds to me.

Wow, I'm surprised 1 month ago

so many other people want to do this too. Here’s what I’ve learned so far: one two three SOUNDS like odn dwa try and cheese SOUNDS like sid. There are 33 letters in Ukrainian alphabet and 18 of them rhyme. The letter P sounds like R. X and b both sound really crazy to me. :)

(I like a Ukrainian boy, that’s why I’m learning.) ;)

I just started this morning, using the Pimsleur series. It’s been extremely effective so far. As of now, I can say “Excuse me. Are you Ukrainian?” and “Yes, Ukrainian. And you?”. This is my first time learning a new language, so it’s quite an exciting experience.

My family is from the Ukraine and I could speak it when I was a child and now nothing.

If you want to start from a real basic point try Ukrainian Power…
