About Church Slavic for Ukrainian speakers
Church Slavic and Ukrainian are both written in the Cyrillic alphabet, so you can start reading straight away.
Both are Slavic languages, so expect words and grammar that feel familiar.
Church Slavic is related to Bulgarian, Bosnian, Czech, Croatian.
How the exchange works
- Say what you speak and what you're learning. Talkabout shows you people who speak Church Slavic natively and are learning Ukrainian.
- Write to someone. Take turns: some messages in Church Slavic, some in Ukrainian, so you both get to practise.
- Fix each other's messages. Suggest a correction on any message and your partner sees exactly what changed. You choose how much you want corrected.
Safe by default
Talkabout is for adults only. Photos and contact details unlock only after you've both written to each other, nobody can flood your inbox, and favourites stay private unless you both choose each other.
You can block or report anyone from the chat. Everyone agrees to the community guidelines, and moderators tell you which rule was broken when they act on a report.
