I live in Austria and two weeks ago my husband and I "adopted" a 17 year old Ukrainian boy. He fled alone, all by himself... He is so thankful, humble and just absolutely gorgeous. I help him with learning German and he teaches me some Ukrainian. Inna I want to thank you so much for your videos - with them I was able to learn the alphabet and some words and that helped us all so much ❤️
@@DutchGem You can see it in her thumbnails too. The ones from a year ago, she's smiling and being happy. Now the recent ones, the happiness has left her face :(
Дякую, що завантажили це, я пишу листівки з фонетичною вимовою та вивчаю базову українську кирилицю. Як і всі ми тут, ми приголомшені й розлючені звірствами російських загарбників. Я громадянин США з Каліфорнії, і я знаю, що незабаром буду там для гуманітарної допомоги та/або, можливо, для виконання бойових завдань, оскільки це загострюється, я тільки хотів би, щоб я разом із силами НАТО був там набагато раніше. Мене так розриває серце, що тобі довелося покинути свій дім. Дякуємо за допомогу та будьте в безпеці, дівчинко. Без вагань я б віддав своє життя, щоб захистити вас, і всіх там - тут, у США, моє життя мало що значить. Вибачте за довгу відповідь та поганий переклад - я використовую Google Translate 🤭. Тож мир вам✌🏽, і 🇺🇸 ❤ 🇺🇦
Примітка: ще з дитинства кириличний текст мене захоплював, він виглядає якось напівзнайомим і водночас потойбічним у такий крутий спосіб. Зараз я наполегливо працюю, щоб навчитися цьому. Бережіть себе, юна леді✌🏽& after it's over 💃🏻+🕺🏻 & 🍾 🥂

God bless you, dear Inna, your family and whole nation! Hope so much war will be over soon... Slava Ukraine ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I just started learning Ukrainian via your videos and whatever other resources I came across on youtube. I did study Russian in college, and already know the alphabet at least, mostly. I love learning languages, and had always meant to study Ukrainian eventually, so this year with the war and everything it seems like a great time to start. I would love some vocabulary & phrase videos relating to politics, history, war and rebuilding, since my initial goal was to be able to understand more of President Zelenskyy's speeches without needing to read the subtitles so much. Thanks for helping us learn Ukrainian. :)
It is like i would have written it! It is exactly the same for me! I learned russian for 3 years more than 20 years ago, then I know the alphabet and some a bit similar vocabulary. I am now able to recognise some words when i'm listening Volodymyr Zelenskyy's speeches. Now in France, they have to reprint ukrainian-french dictionnary
Can you do vocabulary related to medical needs? -Are you sick? -Do you need medicine? -Are you hurt? -Is your arm/leg/bone broken? -Do you have a fever? -Are you bleeding? -Do you need bandages? -Do you have any allergies/are you allergic to anything?, also thank you for your videos and spreading the Ukrainian language.
@@steev6946 No, I think you are confusing "could" and "should". True, she _could_ leave the Country, that option is available to her. But I say she _would not_ do that.

Inna it touched my heart when you mentioned being lost, I feel how difficult this is for you. You do the right thing, staying occupied, keeping the mind from dwelling on things beyond your control. This situation sucks but it will change and things will get better. We must keep the flame of hope burning bright in our souls. I'm a jazz musician and I'm reminded of a saying that originates from the African American Blues. A music that speaks of courage and perseverance in difficult times, It goes something like this: " They may rob you of everything, but don't let nobody ever steal your joy". Peace and love sweet Inna, stay safe, sunny days will return...Slava Ukraini.
This vocabulary is so important for those assisting Ukrainains all over the world right now - thank you!!!! I will be sharing this will all the host families and support groups I can. I honestly cried as I watched this video. You are doing amazing work using your platform for helping. We wish nothing but the very best for you, that you and all Ukrianians will be able to return safely home soon and be supported in rebuilding your lives in every way you need 🇺🇦💙💛 Slava Ukraini!

I don't speak any Slavic languages (yet) but that sounds like Old Swedish vs. modern Swedish or German vs. Netherlands. Very similar except the grammar.
Hello Inna! I am teaching portuguese to four UKrainian children and I souls like to learn their language too.They are really fast learners ,very eager to learn.
I am sorry for your temporary loss of your home and so many other things. If you can, make sure to take time to yourself so that you save your mental health. I imagine this all is extremely stressful, I am worried about the level of stress that people are having to endure. I bought a hoodie from the store.. I love all the designs, looks very nice!
Just started learning Ukrainian today as I think it will be much more needed now in the US. I only know English unfortunately but currently trying to learn Chinese, Japanese, Spanish and now putting Ukrainian to the top of the list. Just crazy to think what you are going through over there, so glad you are somewhere safe at least and getting some help! Thank you so much for what you are doing!
Ukrainian is a beautiful language. I'm studying everyday. It's very difficult for me though because the vocabulary is very different and hard to remember. I need a lot of repetition.
If you are able get a Quizlet account (it’s free) and you can make flashcards from Ukrainian into English or whatever language you choose. I use it for school when I study French and it’s so useful to actually remember things and you can do it anywhere as it’s on phone or computer.
@@lila_harris This is really good advice. I, too, have been learning from this channel and the Ukrainian Lessons podcast on Spotify. Funnily enough, I hadn't thought to make flash cards. Will definitely work on that this weekend.
Прівіт-прівіт, Iнна! You'll be able to return to your homeland once this nightmare will be over! And the Ukrainian heroes will triumph! I also want to say "Діакую" for your e-book 'Master Ukrainian Cases'! It's being an excellent support to learn the declensions properly!
Very simillar to polish :D in polish we just have singular form in older slavic language to single person you use plural form. 1. pomóc, dopomóc - help, wam potrzeba dopomóc? Jak ja mogę wam dopomóc? 2. Czy nie moglibyście by mi pomóc. Tak ja mogę wam pomóc. 3. Ambulance i would not quess in polish is Ambulans or Karetka, now i realised that its sounds liek "szybka pomoc" the ukrainian version of ambulance :D 4. Wyklikcie, wyklikajcie simmilar in polish but we use zadzwoń for call Lot lot simmiraties!
Thank you for your videos! I like to learn foreign languages and to discover sometimes that there is in some words like roots, like bridges between foreign languages. I found already some with french and italian and also german (I'm french). It's amasing. And learning ukrainian today is also something to show and to proove that Ukrain is bigger than P. (I don't want to write his name because I hate him) thinks. Take care and Slava Ukraïni!!
I have just found your channel and I am very glad, as I live in the neighboring Slovakia and we have a lot of refugees here. I gather our languages are very close, so I would like to learn a bit, also because I have signed up to help in the refugee help center here in the capital. I am glad you are safe in the safer part of the country and I completely understand your decision not to leave your husband and family, I cannot even imagine how difficult it must have been to leave your home. Every day I admire the courage and resilience of your nation and I hope and pray the peace will return to your country very soon. Slava Ukrajini! 💛💙
Ще раз дякую за гарне відео! Чудово, якщо ви продовжуєте допомагати та навчати інших. 👏🏼👍🏻😀 До Галатів 6 9 А роблячи добре, не знуджуймося, бо часу свого пожнемо, коли не ослабнемо. 10 Тож тому, поки маємо час, усім робімо добро, а найбільш одновірним!
Is that Russian or Ukrainian? I am trying to learn how to tell them apart by sight. Another thing from the Bible is "Love Your Neighbor as Yourself". I would like to tag a specific Book and Chapter, but that seems to be all over the place, in it. It must be very important. 🤔
Hi it's David, Belfast. The alphabets are similar but if you see і, ї, or ь, it's Ukrainian. Russian also has letters that are not in the Ukrainian alphabet. In response to your earlier question, no, I regret to say I have no contact details for the lovely girl who walked along the beach path with me and talked and laughed a little with me. She was teaching herself English. I can only wish her well, and say again, I shall remember her always
@@TheNoiseySpectator Sorry I was wrong about the ь. Russian has it too. I should have checked. The "soft sign". I'm right about the і and the ї. They are Ukrainian. і is like English "ee" sound and ї is like the English "ye". One of the nice things about learning Ukrainian is that the letters have the same sound all the time (with some exceptions of course!) Not like English where the letter i for example has maybe four or five different sounds. Sorry to be preachy.
@@dqvissmyph2968 That's okay. What about words with only _one_ letter in them? I know there are about six Russian words spelled with one letter, are there any Ukrainian words with one letter that are not the same as in Russian? For example, elsewhere, I mentioned the word "and" in Spanish is "y", and in Portuguese, it is "e".
You may not have your home at the moment but you and your brave countrymen have earned a place in a lot of hearts. Btw. I just bought a couple of T-shirts and a hoodie with the Vyshyvanka heart from your shop as a modest symbol of that.
So many languages have "feel" as a reflexive verb! My English learners from many different countries often used to say, "I feel myself bad." I will have to look up when/why/how that happened to modern English.
That's usually how it works in Germanic languages. German: "Ich fühle mich nicht wohl". Swedish: "Jag känner mig dålig". Etc. The German verb is even cognate with the English.
I can't believe you are still doing this while under threat of war! Thank you so much for your dedication. I am currently learning Ukrainian because my mother's side of the family is Ukrainian. Because my grandparents came to Canada well over 100 years ago now, we have lost the language in our family. But your courage and the people of Ukraine have inspired me to learn and uncover more about my family's connections and genealogy. Слава Україні!
Я могу писать только по-русски. Всё лучшее для вас. Очевидно, что вы боретесь в данный момент. Приходится верить, что всё снова будет хорошо, и скорее раньше, чем позже. 👍😊❤
Personally, I see no way that Russia could occupy Ukraine, neither as a whole, nor even in part. I think it is a question of sooner rather than later before they fail. The difference is how much death and destruction will Russia cause before they quit.
@@TheNoiseySpectator the thing is they are not trying to occupy Ukraine, that is for sure not the goal. They will not quit soon for political reason. They are here to fight so Ukraine will never be part of NATO, unless Europe or United States gave in…. this is the tragic part. This war is techniquely a proxy war just like the ones U.S fought in Middle East. Still horrible though.
@@TheNoiseySpectator Also, I think This just turn into a real war, since negotiation is impossible at this point, Russia is going to really fight now. It was punitive before. It is going to be harder, but Russia is poor, so it might not hold that long.
Inna, this subject is exactly what I've been hoping to learn. I also am interested in the related requests others have posted to this video. May I also ask for vocabulary lessons to say things such as: May I hug you? May I hold your hand? My heart cries with you. May I pray for you? What can I bring you? What scares you? How can I help you feel safe? Do you want to be alone or may I sit with you? What things make your heart feel better? Can I help you call your family? Are you in pain? Where is your pain? What kind of pain do you feel? (Achy, stabbing, throbbing, sharp, constant, intermittent, burning, zaps, depression, suicidal.) Are you confused? Do have memory loss? Do you have shortness of breath? Heart palpations? Headache? Do you need to see the doctor? Are you in urgent need of a doctor? Do you need money? How much money do you need? Do you need help to find your family? These sorts of things. I see you are so stressed, dear Inna. Thank you for all you are doing. Please continue to tell us how you are personally and how your family and husband are and anything you know about your home. Also what you are in need of. I send you love and wish I could make it all better for you. Love from America.
Inna there is a saying in my country “ what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”. I am sorry for the losses in your country but you are becoming a great nation. I pray for Ukraine every day.
May I hug you? - Чи можу я тебе обійняти? / Обійняти тебе? / Ходи обійму. / Давай обійму. May I hold your hand? - Чи можу я взяти тебе за руку? My heart cries with you. - Моє серце болить за тебе. May I pray for you? - Чи можу я за тебе помолитися? What can I bring you? - Що тобі принести? / Що тобі потрібно? What scares you? - Що тебе лякає? How can I help you feel safe? - Що я можу зробити, щоб ти почувався (masculine) / почувалася (feminine) в безпеці? Do you want to be alone or may I sit with you? - Ти хочеш побути сам (masculine) / сама (feminine) чи мені з тобою побути? What things make your heart feel better? - Що тебе втішає? / Що може тебе розрадити? / Що може допомогти тобі почуватися краще? Can I help you call your family? - Допомогти тобі позвонити твоїй родині? Are you in pain? - У тебе щось болить? / Тобі боляче? What kind of pain do you feel? (Achy, stabbing, throbbing, sharp, constant, intermittent, burning, zaps, depression, suicidal.) - Який саме біль ти відчуваєш? Achy - невеликий біль по всьому тілу; поболює; трохи болить, але стерпно stabbing - колючий, пронизливий, наче коле throbbing - пульсуючий sharp - гострий constant - постійний intermittent - уривчастий; біль то приходить, то зникає burning - наче горить zaps - напливами depression - депресія suicidal - маю суїцидні думки, маю думки про самогубство, думаю про самогубство, хочу покінчити з собою Do have memory loss? - У тебе є провали в пам'яті? / Ти все пам'ятаєш? Do you have shortness of breath? - Ти маєш задишку? / Ти маєш утруднене дихання? / Тобі важко дихати? Heart palpations? - Прискорене серцебиття? Headache - Головний біль? Do you need to see the doctor? - Тобі потрібно до лікаря? Are you in urgent need of a doctor? - Тобі потрібно негайно до лікаря? / Тобі потрібна невідкладна медична допомога? Do you need money? - Тобі потрібні гроші? How much money do you need? - Скільки грошей тобі потрібно? Do you need help to find your family? - Тобі допомогти знайти твою родину?
The material you display on the video goes away from the screen pretty fast. Many language teachers provide a PDF of the lines that they displayed. You write them anyway so if you take a few moments to post PDF of that it would be a good help for the beginners I think I am already intermediate due to my strong background in Russian. There is some 70-80% similarity. Same happened when I learnt Portuguese fast as I was fluent in Spanish. I had picked Korean th e22nd language to be the last one. But in order to help people arriving in Canada, I decided to learn Ukrainian as well and your work is very helpful Thank you.
Inna! Дуже дякую for your lesson. Як ти? I hope things are better, and if they're not, I hope they get better soon. Personally I always wanted to know what the voice says during the raid sirens. I recognize words like увага, адміністрація, громадян, and I think тревога but I can't make the whole sentences. I tried to find them online but I couldn't. Wishing the best for the ukrainian people, Слава Україні! Все буде Україна.
Thank you for your great channel, Inna. All will be well again! It would be great, if you could do some easy only Ukrainian chats about life in Ukraine!
Hi Inna...I was in Kyiv for a visit 3 years ago and I spoke Russian...I will return soon and this time speak Ukrainian...Україна-земля героїв...Українська мова героїв
Inna you're a very strong person, I have a lot of respect for you persevering and continuing to educate despite these terrible hardships. Teaching others new skills helps make the world a better place so your lessons are a ray of light through the darkness. Ukraine will win this war and the international community will help rebuild. Like President Zelensky said, "Yes, Ukraine WAS beautiful, but now it will become GREAT!" Slava Ukraini!
Дяакую Інна! Я Українска Американ my grandparents came here from Ukraine and they raised me. I’m learning Ukrainian finally now at age 48. They are gone but their love is still here in my heart. I’m praying for all Ukrainian people. Thank you for your videos and teaching us. Stay safe. Cлава Україні 💙💛
In Poland the Ukrainians who don't speak English have a much easier situation as Polish and Ukrainian are so similar as Romanian and Italian or even more similar. The main difference is alphabet.
Hi inna I'm from India I just hit your subscribe button because I fall in love with your courage to defend and pray for your own country. Stay strong I'm here supporting you.
For anyone who starts without foreknowledge: You may (very likely;-) find Inna's videos about the Ukrainian alphabet helpful! Also: The TH-cam playback speed doesn't distort the pitch and sounds in 0.75 relatively normal and, at 0.5, one can pick up difficult nuances!
Inna, thank you for an informative video. On the topic of language, I wanted to provide one note. In some videos you say "100 profit" when in English it sounds more natural to say "100 percent of the profit." I hope that is helpful. Stay safe.
Thank you :) I've learned myself what it is to learn a language. First learn what is the sky and the ground and left and right. Then learn to ask help. Learning all the complicated tenses comes after you can actually already speak a little already. It's nonsese to start a language by learning just words in lists with tenses: In Swedish to burn in four used tenses: Brinna brinn brann brunnit, My Swedish teacher told me, if you are going to speak like that to a swede, that fellow would most likely call an ambulance to you, for this one is not mentally well 😅 I really thank you from all my heart for your lessons🙂
Brinna is the infinitive, brinn is the imperative, brann is preteritum and brunnit is perfect. But be thankful that it's not older Swedish with different forms in singular and plural, like "huset brinner", "husen brinna", "huset brann" "husen brunno" etc.
I am a pet sitter. The animals have been my savior during this nightmare. Could you share words for animal names and how to say them? I am communicating with a family there and trying to learn Ukrainian and it would be nice to be able to tell them what animals I am speaking about. Besides dogs and cats, I care for chickens, donkeys, horses, cattle, alpaca, sheep and goats. You have been SO helpful to me on my learning journey. Thank you!
💙💛 Thanks for these videos! I began studying Ukrainian alone and your channel can be very useful, because it teaches sentences that are difficult to find elsewhere. I could use other videos like this one! Maybe one with sentences and vocabulary to use with children? Thanks again 💙💛
Breaks my heart to see such a pretty and lovely girl like yourself live through something as horrific as this. Be safe, greetings from Brazil Slava Ukraine!!
I am on my way to work. I am working as a humanitarian aid in Poland and I am really thankful for your language course - its more useful than you think ❤️💙💛 дякую дуже
@@sweetbunny6198 I meant, I am working with Ukraininan people in Poland. I am working as humanitarian aid for Ukraininan, who escaped from the war to Poland, sorry my nad.
I'm learning ukrainian on my own at the moment but i'm very beginner. Some of the stuff on this video could be useful for me at work since i work at an airport. But could you maybe do some airport words and phrases that i could use. We do have some ukrainian refugee's coming to Canada through our airport. Just incase please and thank you.
The ukrainian canadian congress has volunteers at the airport i work at for most of the day to help them but just incase they're not available. Also i grew up hearing ukrainian from my great grandma and grandpa but didn't learn it. I learned one ukrainian insult from my grandpa but that is it. 😅😂
At 2:10 - is it «допомогати», as shown, or «допомагати»? Or both? My Ukrainian spell-checker is so bad (correcting true Ukrainian words for Russian) I had to turn it off (bad Apple!). It sounds like «допомАгати», but if it’s «допомОгати», I’m wondering about the rules for unstressed vowel changes. In Russian (which I studied first for many years) all vowels move towards a kind of vague “uh” sound when unstressed where it can be hard to tell what vowel is meant from listening. (You can’t even tell if they’re iotated or not, since in Russian even more than Ukrainian, unstressed iotated vowels lose the iota so я and а sound almost identical.) But so far in a couple months studying Ukrainian it seems like the vowel sounds are kept separate even when unstressed, so this seems weird if it’s допомОгати. Дуже дякую і слава Україні!
Thank you Inna for all your videos! Ukrainian to me is hard to learn but with your help it will be doable. I'm so sorry for what you and your country are going through. It is horrific and just heartbreaking. Things will get better for you! You are strong!💪💪💪 stay safe! 🙏🙏🙏 Glory to Ukraine! 🇺🇦💙💛
Thank you heroic Inna. The sadness is there in your eyes. The brave Ukrainian spirit is there in your words. God bless. 🙏

Відволікаючись від бойових дій, підтягую свою англійську Вашими відео :) Після перемоги обовязково поїду десь у подорож по світу.
This incredibly valuable, thank you Inna.
Дякую! 🇺🇦🌻💙💛
Bless you for your great courage. Thank you for this language to help us meet Ukrainians who need us..
Just started learning Ukrainian today as I think it will be much more needed now in the US. I only know English unfortunately but currently trying to learn Chinese, Japanese, Spanish and now putting Ukrainian to the top of the list. Just crazy to think what you are going through over there, so glad you are somewhere safe at least and getting some help! Thank you so much for what you are doing!
Дякую за ще один хороший урок!
Ukrainian is a beautiful language. I'm studying everyday. It's very difficult for me though because the vocabulary is very different and hard to remember. I need a lot of repetition.
If you are able get a Quizlet account (it’s free) and you can make flashcards from Ukrainian into English or whatever language you choose. I use it for school when I study French and it’s so useful to actually remember things and you can do it anywhere as it’s on phone or computer.
@@lila_harris This is really good advice. I, too, have been learning from this channel and the Ukrainian Lessons podcast on Spotify. Funnily enough, I hadn't thought to make flash cards. Will definitely work on that this weekend.
@@lila_harris I'm using ankidroid because someone made a set from Duolingo Ukrainian course. It's a good set.
I like this language
Прівіт-прівіт, Iнна! You'll be able to return to your homeland once this nightmare will be over! And the Ukrainian heroes will triumph! I also want to say "Діакую" for your e-book 'Master Ukrainian Cases'! It's being an excellent support to learn the declensions properly!
Great channel Inna!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sending you good wishes and prayers. Stay well and safe dear Inna
Very simillar to polish :D
in polish we just have singular form in older slavic language to single person you use plural form.
1. pomóc, dopomóc - help, wam potrzeba dopomóc? Jak ja mogę wam dopomóc?
2. Czy nie moglibyście by mi pomóc. Tak ja mogę wam pomóc.
3. Ambulance i would not quess in polish is Ambulans or Karetka, now i realised that its sounds liek "szybka pomoc" the ukrainian version of ambulance :D
4. Wyklikcie, wyklikajcie simmilar in polish but we use zadzwoń for call
Lot lot simmiraties!
Thank you for your videos! I like to learn foreign languages and to discover sometimes that there is in some words like roots, like bridges between foreign languages. I found already some with french and italian and also german (I'm french). It's amasing. And learning ukrainian today is also something to show and to proove that Ukrain is bigger than P. (I don't want to write his name because I hate him) thinks. Take care and Slava Ukraïni!!
I have just found your channel and I am very glad, as I live in the neighboring Slovakia and we have a lot of refugees here. I gather our languages are very close, so I would like to learn a bit, also because I have signed up to help in the refugee help center here in the capital. I am glad you are safe in the safer part of the country and I completely understand your decision not to leave your husband and family, I cannot even imagine how difficult it must have been to leave your home. Every day I admire the courage and resilience of your nation and I hope and pray the peace will return to your country very soon. Slava Ukrajini! 💛💙
Привіт-Привіт, Інно! Це-Скотт. Дуже дякую! Я вчуся кожен день. Я дуже радий, ви моя вчителька! 💙💛🇺🇦
Ще раз дякую за гарне відео! Чудово, якщо ви продовжуєте допомагати та навчати інших. 👏🏼👍🏻😀

Is that Russian or Ukrainian?
I am trying to learn how to tell them apart by sight.
Another thing from the Bible is "Love Your Neighbor as Yourself".
I would like to tag a specific Book and Chapter, but that seems to be all over the place, in it.
It must be very important. 🤔
Hi it's David, Belfast. The alphabets are similar but if you see і, ї, or ь, it's Ukrainian. Russian also has letters that are not in the Ukrainian alphabet. In response to your earlier question, no, I regret to say I have no contact details for the lovely girl who walked along the beach path with me and talked and laughed a little with me. She was teaching herself English. I can only wish her well, and say again, I shall remember her always
@@dqvissmyph2968 Thank you.
The "i" with the Oomlots, or regular "i" , or the blocky shaped "b". ✔️
I hope your friend is okay, these days. 🙂
@@TheNoiseySpectator Sorry I was wrong about the ь. Russian has it too. I should have checked. The "soft sign". I'm right about the і and the ї. They are Ukrainian. і is like English "ee" sound and ї is like the English "ye". One of the nice things about learning Ukrainian is that the letters have the same sound all the time (with some exceptions of course!) Not like English where the letter i for example has maybe four or five different sounds. Sorry to be preachy.
@@dqvissmyph2968 That's okay.
What about words with only _one_ letter in them?
I know there are about six Russian words spelled with one letter, are there any Ukrainian words with one letter that are not the same as in Russian?
For example, elsewhere, I mentioned the word "and" in Spanish is "y", and in Portuguese, it is "e".
Thank you Inna!
You may not have your home at the moment but you and your brave countrymen have earned a place in a lot of hearts. Btw. I just bought a couple of T-shirts and a hoodie with the Vyshyvanka heart from your shop as a modest symbol of that.
So many languages have "feel" as a reflexive verb! My English learners from many different countries often used to say, "I feel myself bad." I will have to look up when/why/how that happened to modern English.
That's usually how it works in Germanic languages. German: "Ich fühle mich nicht wohl". Swedish: "Jag känner mig dålig". Etc. The German verb is even cognate with the English.
Дякую ❤🇺🇦
I can't believe you are still doing this while under threat of war! Thank you so much for your dedication. I am currently learning Ukrainian because my mother's side of the family is Ukrainian. Because my grandparents came to Canada well over 100 years ago now, we have lost the language in our family. But your courage and the people of Ukraine have inspired me to learn and uncover more about my family's connections and genealogy. Слава Україні!
Я могу писать только по-русски. Всё лучшее для вас. Очевидно, что вы боретесь в данный момент. Приходится верить, что всё снова будет хорошо, и скорее раньше, чем позже. 👍😊❤
Personally, I see no way that Russia could occupy Ukraine, neither as a whole, nor even in part.
I think it is a question of sooner rather than later before they fail.
The difference is how much death and destruction will Russia cause before they quit.
@@TheNoiseySpectator the thing is they are not trying to occupy Ukraine, that is for sure not the goal. They will not quit soon for political reason. They are here to fight so Ukraine will never be part of NATO, unless Europe or United States gave in…. this is the tragic part. This war is techniquely a proxy war just like the ones U.S fought in Middle East. Still horrible though.
@@TheNoiseySpectator Also, I think This just turn into a real war, since negotiation is impossible at this point, Russia is going to really fight now. It was punitive before. It is going to be harder, but Russia is poor, so it might not hold that long.
Дякую we are praying for Ukraine often. Thanks for your video - I've been learning Ukrainian in Duolingo and your videos provide extra content
You are a wonderful woman!! God Bless Ukraine!!
Beautiful language, love it !
Inna, this subject is exactly what I've been hoping to learn. I also am interested in the related requests others have posted to this video.
May I also ask for vocabulary lessons to say things such as:
May I hug you? May I hold your hand? My heart cries with you. May I pray for you? What can I bring you? What scares you? How can I help you feel safe? Do you want to be alone or may I sit with you? What things make your heart feel better? Can I help you call your family? Are you in pain? Where is your pain? What kind of pain do you feel? (Achy, stabbing, throbbing, sharp, constant, intermittent, burning, zaps, depression, suicidal.) Are you confused? Do have memory loss? Do you have shortness of breath? Heart palpations? Headache? Do you need to see the doctor? Are you in urgent need of a doctor? Do you need money? How much money do you need? Do you need help to find your family?
These sorts of things.
I see you are so stressed, dear Inna. Thank you for all you are doing. Please continue to tell us how you are personally and how your family and husband are and anything you know about your home. Also what you are in need of. I send you love and wish I could make it all better for you. Love from America.

The material you display on the video goes away from the screen pretty fast. Many language teachers provide a PDF of the lines that they displayed. You write them anyway so if you take a few moments to post PDF of that it would be a good help for the beginners I think I am already intermediate due to my strong background in Russian. There is some 70-80% similarity. Same happened when I learnt Portuguese fast as I was fluent in Spanish. I had picked Korean th e22nd language to be the last one. But in order to help people arriving in Canada, I decided to learn Ukrainian as well and your work is very helpful Thank you.
Inna! Дуже дякую for your lesson. Як ти? I hope things are better, and if they're not, I hope they get better soon. Personally I always wanted to know what the voice says during the raid sirens. I recognize words like увага, адміністрація, громадян, and I think тревога but I can't make the whole sentences. I tried to find them online but I couldn't.
Wishing the best for the ukrainian people,
Слава Україні!
Все буде Україна.
Much love and prayers from England 🇺🇦
A very useful video, Inna! You're doing a great job!
Thank you for your great channel, Inna. All will be well again! It would be great, if you could do some easy only Ukrainian chats about life in Ukraine!
I'm proud of you for keeping this going and living your life! I hope you are well!
Slavia Ukrainia 🇺🇦
Hi Inna...I was in Kyiv for a visit 3 years ago and I spoke Russian...I will return soon and this time speak Ukrainian...Україна-земля героїв...Українська мова героїв
So glad to see you are safe and still helping other people learn this beautiful language.
I am a nurse. I am trying to get over there to help. Thank you for this lesson. I'm praying 🙏 for safety and healing for all in Ukraine 🇺🇦.
You are helping so many. I'm trying myself and I'm not there.
You are precious ❤
Thanks Inna
♥♥♥ Inna. Merci !
Inna you're a very strong person, I have a lot of respect for you persevering and continuing to educate despite these terrible hardships. Teaching others new skills helps make the world a better place so your lessons are a ray of light through the darkness. Ukraine will win this war and the international community will help rebuild. Like President Zelensky said, "Yes, Ukraine WAS beautiful, but now it will become GREAT!" Slava Ukraini!
Wishing the best for you, your family and your country! Be safe!
Дяакую Інна! Я Українска Американ my grandparents came here from Ukraine and they raised me. I’m learning Ukrainian finally now at age 48. They are gone but their love is still here in my heart. I’m praying for all Ukrainian people. Thank you for your videos and teaching us. Stay safe. Cлава Україні 💙💛
I am from Romania, we host ukrainian refugees here. I am trying to learn ukrainian so I can speak with them. They don't speak English.
In Poland the Ukrainians who don't speak English have a much easier situation as Polish and Ukrainian are so similar as Romanian and Italian or even more similar. The main difference is alphabet.
Яка гарна.
Bless you Inna and bless all of Ukraine. Слава Україні!!!
Ukrainian language is very interesting
Hi inna I'm from India I just hit your subscribe button because I fall in love with your courage to defend and pray for your own country. Stay strong I'm here supporting you.
For anyone who starts without foreknowledge: You may (very likely;-) find Inna's videos about the Ukrainian alphabet helpful! Also: The TH-cam playback speed doesn't distort the pitch and sounds in 0.75 relatively normal and, at 0.5, one can pick up difficult nuances!
Inna, thank you for an informative video. On the topic of language, I wanted to provide one note. In some videos you say "100 profit" when in English it sounds more natural to say "100 percent of the profit." I hope that is helpful. Stay safe.
Thank you :) I've learned myself what it is to learn a language. First learn what is the sky and the ground and left and right. Then learn to ask help. Learning all the complicated tenses comes after you can actually already speak a little already. It's nonsese to start a language by learning just words in lists with tenses: In Swedish to burn in four used tenses: Brinna brinn brann brunnit, My Swedish teacher told me, if you are going to speak like that to a swede, that fellow would most likely call an ambulance to you, for this one is not mentally well 😅 I really thank you from all my heart for your lessons🙂
Brinna is the infinitive, brinn is the imperative, brann is preteritum and brunnit is perfect. But be thankful that it's not older Swedish with different forms in singular and plural, like "huset brinner", "husen brinna", "huset brann" "husen brunno" etc.
I am a pet sitter. The animals have been my savior during this nightmare. Could you share words for animal names and how to say them? I am communicating with a family there and trying to learn Ukrainian and it would be nice to be able to tell them what animals I am speaking about. Besides dogs and cats, I care for chickens, donkeys, horses, cattle, alpaca, sheep and goats. You have been SO helpful to me on my learning journey. Thank you!
I find it very helpful when you guide us with examples of hyper hi linguistic skills and sentence construction cxxx 💐🌹💚
💙💛 Thanks for these videos! I began studying Ukrainian alone and your channel can be very useful, because it teaches sentences that are difficult to find elsewhere. I could use other videos like this one! Maybe one with sentences and vocabulary to use with children?
Thanks again 💙💛
Breaks my heart to see such a pretty and lovely girl like yourself live through something as horrific as this. Be safe, greetings from Brazil Slava Ukraine!!
I am on my way to work. I am working as a humanitarian aid in Poland and I am really thankful for your language course - its more useful than you think ❤️💙💛 дякую дуже
People are dying in Ukraine, so why does Poland need 'humanitarian aid'?
@@sweetbunny6198 I meant, I am working with Ukraininan people in Poland. I am working as humanitarian aid for Ukraininan, who escaped from the war to Poland, sorry my nad.
thank you
Could you do directions? Forward, back where you came, left, right ect. Basics in giving directions, that would be great!
Be safe my Ukrainian sister,
stay strong
💪
I'm in love.. Come to Canada 🇨🇦❤️
Thanks
I'm learning ukrainian on my own at the moment but i'm very beginner. Some of the stuff on this video could be useful for me at work since i work at an airport. But could you maybe do some airport words and phrases that i could use. We do have some ukrainian refugee's coming to Canada through our airport. Just incase please and thank you.
The ukrainian canadian congress has volunteers at the airport i work at for most of the day to help them but just incase they're not available. Also i grew up hearing ukrainian from my great grandma and grandpa but didn't learn it. I learned one ukrainian insult from my grandpa but that is it. 😅😂
@@Nitesraven which one?😃
@@kikiissekak7623 Well, i'm not gonna say it cause i don't want to get in trouble. But it's meaning is a fool or idiot.
💛💙💛💙 дякую💖
I like it.
At 2:10 - is it «допомогати», as shown, or «допомагати»? Or both? My Ukrainian spell-checker is so bad (correcting true Ukrainian words for Russian) I had to turn it off (bad Apple!).
It sounds like «допомАгати», but if it’s «допомОгати», I’m wondering about the rules for unstressed vowel changes. In Russian (which I studied first for many years) all vowels move towards a kind of vague “uh” sound when unstressed where it can be hard to tell what vowel is meant from listening. (You can’t even tell if they’re iotated or not, since in Russian even more than Ukrainian, unstressed iotated vowels lose the iota so я and а sound almost identical.) But so far in a couple months studying Ukrainian it seems like the vowel sounds are kept separate even when unstressed, so this seems weird if it’s допомОгати. Дуже дякую і слава Україні!
Youre so pretty ❤
Thank you Inna for all your videos! Ukrainian to me is hard to learn but with your help it will be doable. I'm so sorry for what you and your country are going through. It is horrific and just heartbreaking. Things will get better for you! You are strong!💪💪💪 stay safe! 🙏🙏🙏 Glory to Ukraine! 🇺🇦💙💛
