About the book

Ого! / Oho! Ukrainian Grammar & Workbook (A1) is a friendly, practical guide to the essentials of Ukrainian grammar for beginners.

Created to help you not just memorize grammar rules, but actually use them in real life, this book builds a strong foundation in Ukrainian through 75 practical lessons. You’ll start with the alphabet and pronunciation and gradually move on to sentence structure, verb conjugation, cases, and more.

What you’ll find in the book:

clear grammar explanations and charts
visuals that provide context for key grammar points
varied practical exercises with an answer key
audio support for grammar charts and exercises
10 review tests and self-assessment of progress
unit-based vocabulary lists with English translation
an appendix with common verbs and conjugation types

This book works equally well for self-study and for learning with a teacher. It can also be used for exam preparation, as it follows the official Standard of Ukrainian as a Foreign Language, Level A1.

What’s inside?

75 carefully structured lessons help you build grammar for real-life communication. Theory is presented through context-setting visuals, clear English explanations, and simple charts.

Hundreds of varied exercises help you move from recognizing a pattern to using it confidently. The tasks range from closed to open-ended, many are audio-based, and all are supported by a full answer key.

Listen to grammar charts, complete audio-based exercises, and even check your answers through audio.

Review tests, self-assessment sections, vocabulary lists for each unit, and a verb appendix make this book a complete and supportive companion for your Ukrainian study.

What People Are Saying

Anna, I just wanted to thank you for your amazing book, I got through every word and have studied your book very carefully and now starting to listen to your podcasts. thank you very much, really.

Я дуже люблю флеш-карти. Я їх вивчаю щодня. Вони дуже корисні. I was a beginner-level learner. I started taking Ukrainian courses and used your flash cards to help build my vocabulary. I’ve learned so much using them and am now at an intermediate level. I speak regularly with my friend in Ukraine and he comments on the difference. You’ve done a really good job picking frequently used words, which also makes it easier. I can tell you put a lot of effort into making these – having sentences, images, sound recordings, as well as verb imperfective/perfective.

Stephanie Dvareckas

My Ukrainian level was absolute beginner when I got the book. I didn’t use the book itself very much, but I use the Anki flashcards everyday. I would absolutely recommend these flashcards to others. This is probably the number 1 resource that has helped me learn so much Ukrainian. Once I started to learn these 1000 words, I started to learn words from other resources much faster.

I keep the book as a PDF on my phone for now, I browse through it daily, while queuing, etc. The most useful thing – is the example sentences – I feel it boosts up my reading skills. So yes, I recommend this book, it’s concise, it’s a good supplementary to the Ukrainian Lessons Podcast.

I am a beginner in Ukrainian and bought the book “1000 Ukrainian words” after a couple of weeks of studying Ukrainian by myself (I know some russian so it helps learning). I printed the book and just read it, many times, and I still continue reading it. It has been very useful to learn words in a context: in phrases, with cases, with stresses marked and verbs conjugated. The format is very clear and easy to use, and this way of learning suits me. I’d be happy to buy the next 2000 words! The book is perfect for independent studying, money well spent. And Ukrainian is a language of the future, there will be so much collaboration with Ukraine that this is the language to study now

Before purchasing your cards, I felt that my Ukrainian language level was basic. I had finished the Duolingo Ukrainian course, which gave me a basic vocabulary and grammar introduction. I then moved onto a variety of other Ukrainian language courses, but felt my limited vocabulary was holding me back. I’m solely using the flashcards. The book is a good reference for looking up words, but I wouldn’t be able to study from it unless I used it to make my own cards on paper. The sentences and images on your cards are also very helpful in the memorization process. For words that I struggle to remember, I end up memorizing the sentence instead. Having the word in the context of a sentence makes it easier to remember.

This is one of the most practical resources when it comes to learning Ukrainian. I have put in a lot and time and effort into other ways of learning the language (passive listening, an online tutor, subscribing to Ukrainian social media accounts and forcing myself to read long captions in Ukrainian), but this was by far the MOST VALUABLE resource and I am slowly piecing together my own sentences! Thank you for all you do at Ukrainian lessons and for this amazing book.

Anna Skudarnova

My level is still probably A1 or A2, but before the book it was pretty much an absolute beginner. I just knew the alphabet. As I’m on the move a lot, I actually think the flashcards have been the most useful thing for me – I don’t really want to sit and learn through a list (although the list is useful as a reference tool), so the Anki flashcards are really helpful, I try to study them every day when I have some spare time, alongside the FMU podcast flashcards :) I would definitely recommend the book and flashcards to others – for me, it’s been a great reference point and, with the flashcards, a really simple and effective way of boosting my Ukrainian vocabulary.

I love the flashcards! I highly recommend them. The pictures that accompany the new vocabulary are also charming and funny.

Brian Kowalchuk

The flashcards are very, very useful ― I have progressed far more in 1-2 months of Ukrainian than I had in the previous 5 because of these, so thank you. Before I started using it lessons with my tutor were basically 100% in English but learning some Ukrainian words. Now it’s probably 50-60% in Ukrainian ― very big progress and the only difference is that I started using your Anki deck. Please release 1001-2000 most common words flashcards and I will buy them again.
