Why doesn't Ukraine teach english, instead of trying to force minor differentiations in the Russian language by legal fiat and calling it Ukrainian.
Languages evolve on their own over time, changing a letter or pronunciation of all Russian words and calling it a new language is just dumb, and serves no utility.
If they all spoke English instead the country would have an advantage, instead of inventing their own dead language.

I think quite a lot of Ukrainians are proficient in communicating with the English Language.
If Ukraine is unlucky they might not have a country after Victory day in Russia if they decides to bomb Moscow while Xi and Putin is attending.

Both countries will just proceed to nuke Ukraine out of oblivion and Trump will lose the mineral deal.
It is highly likely there are fractions in the Ukrainian army who is going to do that and when nukes fly US and NATO might get involved so successfully pulling in the West for a Hot War.

While Ukrainian is the state language, the constitution also protects the rights of minority languages, including Russian.

In other words, quit getting your panties in a bunch over nothing.

OMG! Great suggestion!

I have an even better one:
Why don't they all just simply become Americans?
They'd b so much better!

And why would we as outsiders care for the reasons why they have a distinct culture and identity that manifets in a own distinct language?
We can simply choose to be ignorant and tell 'em what to do! :thumbsup:

Today in Prague, Zelensky met with Ukrainian refugee women who work as cleaners, scrubbing toilets while inhaling the fumes of freedom. This is exactly what happens when the only language you know is a secondary to Russian pidgin rural mix, and no one there even knows English.

PS:
The vote on the Mineral Agreement will take place on Thursday.
Meanwhile, reports indicate that parliamentarians have not yet been briefed on the Agreement's annexes. :rofl:
Bravo. From now on, Ukraine is officially dead, and anyone who supports it is a perverted necrophiliac
