=== Telling Time in Ukrainian ===
 
Telling time is one of the foundational skills you'll need. In Ukrainian, the way you express time is quite different from English. Let’s break it down step by step.
 
==== Basic Vocabulary for Time ====
 
Before we dive into the specifics, let’s familiarize ourselves with some key vocabulary. Here are the most essential words related to telling time:
 
{| class="wikitable"

|-
 
| година || hodyna || hour
 
|-

==== How to Tell Time ====
 
In Ukrainian, telling time usually follows a structure that is a bit different from English. You often say "It's ... o'clock" as "О ... година" (O ... hodyna).
 
For instance:
 
* '''1:00 PM''' - О першій годині (O pershiy hodyni)
 
* '''2:00 PM''' - О другій годині (O druhi y hodyni)
 
* '''3:00 PM''' - О третій годині (O tretiy hodyni)
 
Now, let's see a few more examples in a table format:
 
{| class="wikitable"
 
! Ukrainian !! Pronunciation !! English
 
|-
 
| О першій годині || O pershiy hodyni || At one o'clock
 
|-
 
| О другій годині || O druhi y hodyni || At two o'clock
 
|-
 
| О третій годині || O tretiy hodyni || At three o'clock
 
|-
 
| О четвертій годині || O chetverti hodyni || At four o'clock
 
|-
 
| О п'ятій годині || O pyatiy hodyni || At five o'clock


Welcome to the lesson on Ukrainian vocabulary for time and scheduling. In this lesson, you will learn how to tell time, schedule appointments, and talk about daily routines in Ukrainian. Time and scheduling are important aspects of everyday life, and mastering these vocabulary words will greatly enhance your ability to communicate in Ukrainian. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to confidently talk about time and make appointments in Ukrainian. So let's get started!
|-
 
| О шостій годині || O shostiy hodyni || At six o'clock
 
|-
 
| О сьомій годині || O syomiy hodyni || At seven o'clock
 
|-
 
| О восьмій годині || O vos'miy hodyni || At eight o'clock
 
|-
 
| О дев'ятій годині || O dev'yatiy hodyni || At nine o'clock
 
|-
 
| О десятій годині || O desyatiy hodyni || At ten o'clock
 
|}


== Talking about Time ==
When expressing time beyond the hour, you would say the number of minutes after the hour. For example:


=== Telling the Time ===
* '''1:15 PM''' - О першій п'ятнадцять (O pershiy pyatnadtsyat)


In Ukrainian, there are two main ways to tell the time: the 12-hour clock and the 24-hour clock. Let's start with the 12-hour clock, which is more commonly used in everyday conversations.
* '''2:30 PM''' - О другій тридцять (O druhi y trydtsyat)


To ask "What time is it?" in Ukrainian, you can say "Котра година?" (Kotra hodyna?).
* '''3:45 PM''' - О третій сорок п'ять (O tretiy sorok pyat)


Here are some examples of how to tell the time in Ukrainian:
Let’s see this in a table:

|-
 
| О дев'ятій п'ятдесят || O dev'yatiy pid'yatdesyat || At nine fifty
 
|-
 
| О десятій двадцять п'ять || O desyatiy dvadtsyat pyat || At ten twenty-five
 
|}
|}


As you can see, the word "години" (hodyny) is used to mean "o'clock" in Ukrainian. Keep in mind that the numbers in Ukrainian have different forms depending on the gender of the noun they modify. For example, "один" (odyn) is used with masculine nouns, "одна" (odna) is used with feminine nouns, and "одне" (odne) is used with neuter nouns. This is something you will learn more about in the Intermediate Grammar section of this course.
==== Asking for the Time ====
 
When you want to ask someone for the time, you can say:
 
* '''Скільки часу?''' (Skil'ky chasu?) - "What time is it?"
 
You can also ask:
 
* '''Котра година?''' (Kotra hodyna?) - "What hour is it?"
 
Response to these questions will usually be in the format we've discussed above.


Now let's move on to the 24-hour clock, which is commonly used in written schedules, transportation timetables, and official documents.
=== Scheduling Appointments ===


To ask "What time is it?" in the 24-hour clock format, you can say "Скільки годин?" (Skilky hodyn?).
Now that you know how to tell time, let’s move on to scheduling appointments. This is equally important for daily communication.


Here are some examples of how to tell the time in Ukrainian using the 24-hour clock:

UkrainianVocabulary0 to A1 Course → Time and Scheduling

In our journey through the Ukrainian language, understanding how to tell time and schedule appointments is essential. Not only does it help you navigate daily life, but it also enriches your conversations and interactions with native speakers. Being able to discuss time can open doors to social gatherings, work commitments, and even simple casual chats. In this lesson, we will delve into the vocabulary related to time and scheduling, providing you with the tools to express yourself confidently.

We'll start with the basics of telling time, then move into scheduling appointments, including common phrases and examples. By the end of this lesson, you should feel comfortable discussing time-related topics in Ukrainian.

Telling Time in Ukrainian[edit | edit source]

Telling time is one of the foundational skills you'll need. In Ukrainian, the way you express time is quite different from English. Let’s break it down step by step.

Basic Vocabulary for Time[edit | edit source]

Before we dive into the specifics, let’s familiarize ourselves with some key vocabulary. Here are the most essential words related to telling time:

Ukrainian Pronunciation English
година hodyna hour
хвилина khvylyna minute
секунда sekunda second
рано rano early
пізно pizno late
зараз zaraz now
о o at (preposition for time)
сьогодні syohodni today
завтра zavtra tomorrow
вчора vchora yesterday

How to Tell Time[edit | edit source]

In Ukrainian, telling time usually follows a structure that is a bit different from English. You often say "It's ... o'clock" as "О ... година" (O ... hodyna).

For instance:

  • 1:00 PM - О першій годині (O pershiy hodyni)
  • 2:00 PM - О другій годині (O druhi y hodyni)
  • 3:00 PM - О третій годині (O tretiy hodyni)

Now, let's see a few more examples in a table format:

Ukrainian Pronunciation English
О першій годині O pershiy hodyni At one o'clock
О другій годині O druhi y hodyni At two o'clock
О третій годині O tretiy hodyni At three o'clock
О четвертій годині O chetverti hodyni At four o'clock
О п'ятій годині O pyatiy hodyni At five o'clock
О шостій годині O shostiy hodyni At six o'clock
О сьомій годині O syomiy hodyni At seven o'clock
О восьмій годині O vos'miy hodyni At eight o'clock
О дев'ятій годині O dev'yatiy hodyni At nine o'clock
О десятій годині O desyatiy hodyni At ten o'clock

When expressing time beyond the hour, you would say the number of minutes after the hour. For example:

  • 1:15 PM - О першій п'ятнадцять (O pershiy pyatnadtsyat)
  • 2:30 PM - О другій тридцять (O druhi y trydtsyat)
  • 3:45 PM - О третій сорок п'ять (O tretiy sorok pyat)

Let’s see this in a table:

Ukrainian Pronunciation English
О першій п'ятнадцять O pershiy pyatnadtsyat At one fifteen
О другій тридцять O druhi y trydtsyat At two thirty
О третій сорок п'ять O tretiy sorok pyat At three forty-five
О четвертій двадцять O chetverti dvadtsyat At four twenty
О п'ятій тридцять п'ять O pyatiy trydtsyat pyat At five thirty-five
О шостій п'ятнадцять O shostiy pyatnadtsyat At six fifteen
О сьомій двадцять O syomiy dvadtsyat At seven twenty
О восьмій тридцять O vos'miy trydtsyat At eight thirty
О дев'ятій п'ятдесят O dev'yatiy pid'yatdesyat At nine fifty
О десятій двадцять п'ять O desyatiy dvadtsyat pyat At ten twenty-five

Asking for the Time[edit | edit source]

When you want to ask someone for the time, you can say:

  • Скільки часу? (Skil'ky chasu?) - "What time is it?"

You can also ask:

  • Котра година? (Kotra hodyna?) - "What hour is it?"

Response to these questions will usually be in the format we've discussed above.
