Welcome to RODOSLIV!

We offer Ukrain­ian lan­guage class­es for adults who have inter­est in Ukrain­ian lan­guage and cul­ture and can study inde­pen­dent­ly.

RODOSLIV (ukr. РОДОСЛІВ) means “ancient words of my peo­ple”. As you learn the lan­guage, mean­ing of the word will become clear.

 OUR MISSION: to pass the knowl­edge of Ukrain­ian lan­guage, ancient cul­ture it rep­re­sents, deep his­to­ry and out­look on life to any­body who is eager to learn.

**************

If you speak to a per­son in a lan­guage they under­stand,

that goes to their head. 

If you speak to a per­son in their own lan­guage,

it goes to their heart.
