Medium speed Ukrainian
Real Ukrainian at normal speed. People talk fast, and accents change from place to place.
At normal speed, Ukrainian verbs show real work. Most verbs have two forms: one for something still happening, and one for something finished. In real talk, people pick the right form without thinking. People from different cities also sound different. People in Lviv talk softer and use their own words. People in Kyiv talk in a more standard way. People in the south talk faster. People also use small, warm word forms a lot in talk. Watch daily videos from Kyiv, cooking videos, and interviews to hear real talk. Pick people from one city, and get used to how they sound.
