507 Ukrainian II
Language | Available (Membership Required)
This course will be a continuation of the Beginning Ukrainian class. We will continue using the books Beginner’s Ukrainian by Yuri Shevchuk, Second Edition (ISBN 978-0-7818-1324-2) and 100 Easy Ukrainian Texts (ISBN 978-1519060020) and Ukrainian Language Reader (ISBN 979-8619827484) both by Yulia Posniak. The books are available online from Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Books-A-Million. The local BAM can order for you. There will be about an hour or two of homework weekly. The class will most likely begin with Chapter 8 of the textbook, possibly a bit behind. This will mean that we have covered: the alphabet; concepts of case and gender; adjectives; declensions of accusative, genitive, and prepositional cases in nouns, pronouns, and adjectives; past, present, and future tenses; aspect; and numbers. If you are comfortable with those, you are welcome to join us. If not, the Ukrainian I course is suggested instead.
