Formal greeting
Did you know? Ukrainian is often described as 'melodic', linguists rank it among the most musical Slavic languages. The letter Ї (yi), absent from Russian, has become a symbol of Ukrainian linguistic identity. National poet Taras Shevchenko (1814-1861) codified the modern literary language. A fun fact: the word 'Ukraine' comes from Old Slavic and means 'borderland' or 'march.' Ukraine has a tradition called 'Vyshyvanka', ornate embroidered garments that symbolize cultural belonging and are worn during national celebrations.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about learning Ukrainian

They share about 60% of their vocabulary, but pronunciation, intonation, and many everyday words differ significantly. A Ukrainian and a Russian can communicate, but it's like Portuguese and Spanish: similar yet distinct. On several grammatical points, Ukrainian is actually closer to Belarusian and Polish than to Russian.
Several reasons: to understand and support the Ukrainian community in France (estimated at 120,000+ people since 2022), to work with NGOs or humanitarian organizations, to prepare for a career in post-war reconstruction (a market estimated at 1 trillion dollars), or simply out of cultural interest in a country undergoing a powerful identity revival.
No. The Ukrainian Cyrillic alphabet has 33 letters and can be learned in 1 to 2 weeks of regular practice. It differs slightly from Russian Cyrillic (the letters Ї, Є, and І are specific to Ukrainian). Once you have the alphabet down, Ukrainian pronunciation is highly phonetic, you read it the way it's written.
Yes. France has welcomed more than 100,000 Ukrainians since 2022, mostly families. Many French cities have rolled out integration programs. Learning Ukrainian lets you communicate directly with these people, work as a mediator or interpreter, or simply build genuine human connections.
For a French speaker, 6 to 9 months with 2 lessons per week is enough to reach B1 (everyday conversation). Ukrainian is classified as Category 3 by the FSI (roughly 1,100 hours for full mastery). If you already have some grounding in Russian or Polish, progress will be significantly faster.
Targumi offers 3 plans: quarterly, yearly, and lifetime access. All plans include live small-group classes with native teachers, interactive lessons, and the community. See full pricing on the pricing page.
100% online. Live classes happen twice a week in small groups via Google Meet. You can join from anywhere in the world. The mobile and web app stay accessible 24/7 for interactive lessons.

“Been on Targumi for 3 months. The small group format is exactly what I needed. My teacher takes time to correct accent, it's precious. Made more progress in 3 months than in 2 years of regular apps.”

“What sold me is you actually speak from class one. No 10 hours of theory before opening your mouth. And the platform between classes is well-built, I revise on the morning commute.”

DamienVerified purchase
S

“Honestly I had doubts at first because I'd tried plenty of methods without sticking. This is different, the teacher knows their stuff, adapts to your level, and we have fun on top of it. 6 months in and still motivated.”

“Really good experience overall, the rhythm between live classes and independent practice is well-balanced. Small note: the mobile app lags sometimes, but the teaching content is well worth the price.”

AntoineVerified purchase

“The thing that makes a real difference compared to other platforms: teachers are native and trained. You feel it, especially on accent and everyday expressions you don't learn in textbooks.”
