In today's lesson, we will learn the purpose of Ukrainian cases and when to use them!
Cases are very important and not using them changes the meaning sometimes slightly:
- Я вчу українську - I learn Ukrainian
- Я вчу українською - I learn through Ukrainian (as in the lessons are in Ukrainian)
But sometimes it can make the meaning very different!
- Мама їсть курку. - Mom is eating the chicken.
- Маму їсть курка. - The chicken is eating mom.
Though I suppose, if you were saying the second one in a calm tone, they might cop on that your mother wasn't really being eaten by a chicken.
Here is the list of cases and there uses
- Nominative Case
- Genitive Case
- Dative Case*
- Accusative Case*
- Instrumental Case
- Locative Case
- Vocative Case
