"Sprechen Sie… Ukrainisch?"

In the absolutely awesome German state of Hesse, they are now introducing Ukrainian as an official elective course in school.

In Germany you must learn two foreign languages to obtain higher level school diplomas, and now Ukrainians can choose Ukrainian as that second foreign language. At the same time, native Germans get the chance to learn the language of 44 million Ukrainians too — which is great with Ukraine becoming an EU member state.
