Thank you for all that you are doing on your channel, especially under the circumstances. The Russian invasion inspired me to learn Ukrainian, since my mother's side of the family is Ukrainian. I'm learning on Duolingo right now but I will eventually enrol in your course Inna. My grandfather was from the village of Dubivtsi, outside of Chernivtsi in Bukovina. When he came to Canada his name was changed to Nicholas Howanyk, but I have just recently been able to find his birth records from Dubivtsi and many generations before him. His birth name was Миколай Гойванюк, but I have also seen his surname spelled Гуйванюк and Гуіванюк. The church records from the 19th century and the entire Austrian occupation period of that part of Ukraine are written in Church Slavonic and they sometimes use the Latin alphabet, sometimes the Cyrillic alphabet. Very difficult to read.

This was an informative video, and some ancestry research I've dabbled in makes sense now. I have a family tree on my dad's side (Polish), but there seems to be some Ukrainian/South Russian ancestry (Ancestry DNA/GEDMatch). Some of the surnames that go back to the partitioning of Poland seem to have those patronymic surnames instead of surnames (last names seem to change, but they end in wowa/ova, with names that sound more common to Russian or Ukrainian rather than Polish), almost like they went through a de-russification of their surname. (Grandmother's side seems to be Polish-Ukrainian/Cossack, grandfather is Polish-Lithuanian or Belarussian). There's at least one surname that looks like it was "Osadchenko", followed by several generations of Tyma (Tymoshenko?) down to my great-great grandmother. I've also been gradually picking up Cyrillic the past few months.

Please don’t take what I say as for sure true because I’m not Ukrainian but I think “aya” is the Russian suffix and “a” is the Ukrainian suffix. I could be wrong but I’m studying Ukrainian and Russian and have noticed female adjectives in Russian ending in “aya” and in Ukrainian it’s just “a”

@hanna_flores_life 2 жыл бұрын

Ending "-aya" is used in Russian language. In Ukrainian woman's last name ends with "-a". Like Zelenskyy - Zelenska. Stoyev - Sloyeva. Or sometime they don't change: last names Poroshenko or Pan'kiv will be the same for a man and for a woman. If the ending changes or not bepends on the type of ending of the last name: - enko, -iv, etc are not changing. Descriptive last names (that come from adjectives) and end with "- yy" do change the ending to "-a" for a woman.

@indgeus 2 жыл бұрын

It depends if your father's name, so Кристоферович if Krzysztofer and Кристофович if Krzysztof. You can also use form Криштофович and Кжиштофович if you want to go for full polish style, same can be done for your name, so Анджей, or unshifted Андрей. Also your surname likely would be Ф'ялковський, or Фіялковський, but you still can Фялковський, no one will stop you.

My great grandfather and great great uncle immigrated to Canada and U.S. in the early 19 teens. Their names were changed during immigration and there are several spellings due to the translation from Cyrillic to English alphabet. ApT3a6 would be close to the original sound, but the name got translated into English as Arztab, Arzab, Artsob and Harsip. There is still debate over what the original surname is.

In my country farmers used patronyms, and no other surname until something like 100-150 yrs ago, then they were forced to use the same surname and some took new names after their farms or villages, other families just took the male patronyms as family names ... so weirdly enough some women have "Malename-son" for a surname. But what I find interesting is how typically Ukrainian surnames differ from the typical surnames in neighbouring countries?

A) I thought the -in name was Belorussian, but I was wrong. B) My name and as I haven’t installed the Ukrainian alphabet it will be in Russian: Кессельмарк Магнус Ройович (or maybe Ройевич). C) I run a class in Russian for pensioners and when I explained the slavic names, and the use of nicknames and “кличка”, some of my ‘student’ understood why the persons and names in Dostoevsky’s novels were so confusing. One person could be mentioned with their different names in different variants. Кличка (klitjka) is a nickname often on criminals. In a Swedish criminal novel is a person called the “Pole killer” as he tried to rob the smallish taxi driver he could find and who was a polish guy, but also carried a black belt in karate …. D) On the same subject; there’s a person in Kunin’s book Intergirl, called Наташка Школница, a nickname that is really bad (Natashka) but also very sweet (schoolgirl - schoolgirls are sweet …).

We don't call people by using only their first names as it's consireder disrespectful (unless they are your friends of course).

Patronymic name is not surname. For example: Before Olha Fedorivna Franko married Ivan Yakovych Franko, her name was Olha Fedorivna Khoruzhynska. Yakovych, Fedorivna - patronymic names, Franko, Khoruzhynska - surnames

Traditionally - yes. But nowadays you can do what you want. You can change it, keep you're, or add your husband's last name and have 2 words as your last name. :)

Do all Slavic languages put the surname first? I thought that Hungarian (not Slavic, I know) was the only European language that did this.

Definitely not all Slavic languages. I bet most don't.

What if the parents aren't married? Will the child get father's patronymic but mother's surname? And what if father is "unknown"? Like the child is a result of an affair of the mother with a married man who doesn't want to acknowledge his paternity? Or the father is a random guy the mother met at some party and never saw him again?
