Description

In this episode, Alex finally explains what the mysterious letter “Y” really means in Ukrainian words. Why does it sound different in ty, Yulia, or Zelenskyy? You’ll hear clear English explanations from Alex and simple Ukrainian drills from Larissa. Beginner-friendly, cozy, and made for real learners.

You’ll pick up simple lines:

  • «Ty, vy» — “you, informal or formal”

  • «Sim’ya» — “family”
  • «Yulia, Yevhen, Zelenskyy» — given names and surnames.
