Did you know that there are about five times fewer vowels in the Ukrainian language than consonants? Have you heard of non-syllabic sounds? Or about Schrödinger's letter? Do you know that hissers are constantly mimicking other Ukrainian consonants? The book "To Hear in Ukrainian" will not force you to learn the rules or memorize the grammar. Your Ukrainian language and literature teacher has already done that. The task of the book is to explain the rules and regularities of the sound system, and show why our alphabet is almost perfect. And, of course, to convince you that the Ukrainian language is extremely interesting, easy and sometimes even useful.
