Welcome to our Ukrainian language program!
We're glad that you've become interested in learning Ukrainian
language with ELC ltd.
Studying a foreign language offers a unique opportunity to experience another
culture in depth.
Kiev (Kyiv), the capital city of Ukraine is the cradle of
two Slavic nations: Russian and Ukrainians. It's a unique place, where you will
be understood well in both Russian and Ukrainian languages. Ukrainian language
is the only official language in Ukraine. It is an East Slavic language, one
of three members of this language group, the other two being Russian and Belarusian.
Written Ukrainian bears resemblances to these two languages, but with several
notable differences. Historically, Belarusian and Ukrainian diverged from Old
or Middle Ruthenian language. Spoken literary Ukrainian, however finds a closer
similarity for native speakers with Slovak. Spoken Ukrainian also exhibits marked
similarities to Polish vocabulary, which some attribute, in part, to an influence
of Polish upon Ruthenian and Ukrainian. Total speakers of Ukrainian language:
more than 41 million.
Ukraine is an undiscovered treasure - a fascinating, convenient,
and inexpensive destination, where visitors can spend terrific holidays, become
acquainted with the history and culture of the Ukrainian and Russian people,
visit the ancient churches and architectural monuments of a thousand-year-old
culture, and explore the many health resorts located throughout Ukraine.
Kiev and Lviv, Chernihiv and Ramyanets-Podilsky, Ivano-Frankivsk
and Chernivtsi, Odessa and the Crimea, the Black Sea and the Carpathian Mountains
are just some of the remarkable places awaiting the businessmen and tourists.
Kiev was the capital city of the mighty state of Kievan
Rus-Ukraine and the seat of the Ukrainian Orthodox Metropolitanate. It is situated
on the banks of the Dnipro River, below the mouth of Desna River. The officially
accepted date of the "birth" of Kiev is 482 A.D. According to a widely-known
legend, Kiev was founded by three brothers, Kyy, Shchek, Khorev, and their sister
Lybid, whose names today are the part of toponomy of Kiev. In 998 Prince Volodymyr
introduced Christianity as the official state religion.
