As a Ukrainian language teacher with over 20 years of experience, I believe that the key to learning any language is to embrace the culture and immerse yourself in the language as much as possible. In this lesson, we will be learning how to introduce yourself and ask for someone's name in Ukrainian. This is a fundamental skill for anyone wishing to communicate effectively in Ukrainian.
=== Importance of Introducing Yourself ===


Introducing yourself is often the first step in establishing a connection with others. It allows you to share who you are, where you're from, and what interests you. In Ukrainian culture, a good introduction can open doors to friendships, opportunities, and deeper connections.

When you introduce yourself, it's common to include:
== Basic Introductions ==


Let's start with some basic vocabulary for introducing yourself:
* Your name
 
* Where you come from
 
* A little about your interests or profession
 
This lesson will provide you with the vocabulary and phrases needed for effective introductions in Ukrainian.
 
=== Key Vocabulary ===
 
Let's start with some essential vocabulary that you will need to introduce yourself. Below is a table of key terms:


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Ukrainian !! Pronunciation !! English
! Ukrainian !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| мене звати || mene zvaty || my name is
|-
|-
| Мене звати... || Myene zvatyi... || My name is...
 
| я || ya || I
 
|-
|-
| Я... || Ya... || I am...
 
| ти || ty || you (informal)
 
|-
|-
| Привіт! || Pryvit! || Hello!
 
| ви || vy || you (formal/plural)
 
|-
|-
| Доброго ранку! || Dobrohoh ranku! || Good morning!
 
| з || z || from
 
|-
|-
| Добрий день! || Dobryy den! || Good afternoon!
 
| країна || krayina || country
 
|-
 
| місто || misto || city
 
|-
 
| професія || profesiya || profession
 
|-
 
| хобі || khobi || hobby
 
|-
|-
| Добрий вечір! || Dobryy vechir! || Good evening!
|}


To introduce yourself, simply say "Мене звати..." followed by your name. For example, "Мене звати Олексій" (Myene zvatyi Oleksiy) means "My name is Oleksiy". Alternatively, you can use "Я..." followed by your name. For example, "Я Олексій" (Ya Oleksiy) means "I am Oleksiy".
| цікаво || tsikavo || interesting


To say hello at any time of the day, you can use "Привіт!" (Pryvit!), which is the equivalent of "Hi!" or "Hello!"
|}


In addition to "Привіт!", Ukrainians also use different greetings depending on the time of day. For example, "Доброго ранку!" (Dobrohoh ranku!) means "Good morning!", "Добрий день!" (Dobryy den!) means "Good afternoon!", and "Добрий вечір!" (Dobryy vechir!) means "Good evening!".
These words will serve as the building blocks for your introductions.  


== Asking for Someone's Name ==
=== Common Phrases ===


If you want to ask for someone's name, you can use the following phrases:
Now, let's look at some common phrases used when introducing yourself in Ukrainian. Here are some examples:


{| class="wikitable"

|-
 
| Чи можу я запитати ваше ім'я? || Chy mozhu ya zapytaty vashe im'ya? || May I ask your name?
 
|}
|}


To ask someone for their name in a formal situation, use "Як вас звати?" (Yak vas zvatyi?). In an informal situation, use "Як тебе звати?" (Yak tebe zvatyi?).
These phrases will help you navigate a variety of introductory situations!
