Founded in 2007, it is one of the\u0000first Ukrainian studies in the People’s Republic of China and nowadays has significant educational achievements\u0000and an interesting history of China-Ukrainian educational and cultural relations.\u0000The Ukrainian studies in SISU develop in the context of general progress of the university and\u0000organization of foreign language teaching: from the Shanghai School of Russian (1949) to the modern\u0000multidisciplinary university of foreign languages with high international level. Now, SISU, teaching 46 foreign\u0000languages, is one of China’s leading universitiesand demonstrates a high level of international cooperation.\u0000Ukrainian studies have an interesting academic history among the specialties of SISU. The author\u0000widely covered the institutional history of the specialty: the establishment of educational program of Ukrainian\u0000studies at the Faculty of Russian Language and Literature (2007) and its gradual development into a selfsufficient\u0000specialty (2015). Among the important moments in the history of Ukrainian studies at SISU is the\u0000foundation of Ukrainian Research Center (2015) as an important center of regional and national studies. The\u0000author showed in detail the content and structure of the curriculum of the specialty Ukrainian language and\u0000literature, presented the scientific and methodological achievements of teachers of Ukrainian studies, and\u0000displayed a wide range of educational, cultural and artistic activities in Ukrainian studies. The integral element\u0000of successful teaching of the Ukrainian language in a non-native environment was separately illustrated, such\u0000as cooperation of teachers and students with Ukrainian universities, national and social organizations both in\u0000China and in Ukraine (in particular with Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, Consulate-General of Ukraine\u0000in Shanghai, the Association of Ukrainians in Shanghai, etc.).\u0000Key words: Shanghai International Studies University (SISU), Ukrainian studies, specialty of Ukrainian\u0000language and literature, Ukrainian Research Center, Ivan Franko National University of Lviv","PeriodicalId":153346,"journal":{"name":"Theory and Practice of Teaching Ukrainian as a Foreign Language","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132099112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the textbook “Local lore: theory and practice” (Kyiv: Center for Educational Literature, 2012. 528 p.) we have analyzed 378 examples of the use of prepositions-prefixes “у” and “в” (euphonems), separated by the method of continuous selection from the first 55 pages of the publication. The normative ones turned out to be 314 examples, which is 83.1%, erroneous - 64 examples (16.9%). During our research we used statistical, comparative, structural (descriptive) methods and analysis . The study of possible reasons for non-compliance with the current spelling rules for cases of non-normative use in comparing them with the normative ones, as well as the comparison of statistical data with the materials of previous studies, allowed us to find out some patterns in the rules of euphony. It is stated that the modern speaker constantly avoids the coincidence of vowels, confirming the unkindness of such sound combinations. It was found that the lack of flexibility in spelling recommendations for consonant matches, in particular ignoring the requirements of the melody of a particular phrase and the individual sense of the speaker, contributes to the emergence of numerous cases of violations. A significant percentage of errors justifies the presence of a pause and pronunciation of the “ў”-infinitive. It is noted that the largest number of consonant coincidences occurs in the use of “в” before the phonetic (sonorous) consonant, in particular before the next “й”, this position is perceived by many speakers as easy to pronounce. Modern Ukrainian spelling should provide more opportunities for flexible use of euphony means, in particular positional alternation of “у” and “в”.\u0000Key words: ukrainian language, euphony, normalization, means of euphony in ukrainian language, positional alternation of “у” and “в”.","PeriodicalId":153346,"journal":{"name":"Theory and Practice of Teaching Ukrainian as a Foreign Language","volume":"119 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127406817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Until recently, the levels of proficiency in the Ukrainian language and the scope of material covered by these levels were not clearly defined. Owing to the joint work of teachers of the Department and the Center for International Education of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv,the Standard of Ivan Franko National University ofLviv on Ukrainian as a Foreign Language was approved in 2012 (Minutes 36/2 of the meeting of the Academic Council of Ivan Franko National University of Lvivas of February 29, 2012). It became the first document in Ukraine, which, in accordance with the European Recommendations on Language Education, defined the scale of proficiency levels in Ukrainian as a foreign language, contained a description of the requirements for each level, and the testing procedure. The new version of the Standard of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv on Ukrainian as a Foreign Language (2018) expands and details the system of requirements for each level of proficiency in Ukrainian as a foreign language (from A1 to C2), contains a clear list of communication skills (all speech activities) listening, reading, writing, and speaking). By the aid of this Standard, foreign citizens or stateless persons, regardless of where they studied Ukrainian, according to which programs and plans, can confirm their level of proficiency in Ukrainian as a foreign language during the certification exam and obtain a certificate from Ivan Franko National University ofLviv.\u0000More than two hundred foreigners of different ages, occupations and cultural identities, including scholars, representatives of foreign embassies, businessmen, religious figures, teachers, and students from around the world, have already received certificates of proficiency in the Ukrainian language.\u0000In 2020, nine certificates of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv on language knowledge at levels B1 and B2 weregranted to the graduates of the Saturday school “The Sun in the Palms” in Frankfurt am Main. The article considers the procedure for conducting a certification exam in Ukrainian as a foreign language.\u0000It describes the components of the certification work, outlines the stages of preparation of materials, analyzes the positive results of cooperation with Saturday school educators, and points out the importance of supporting the Ukrainian-speaking environment abroad taking into account the challenges of the current situation.\u0000Key words: certification exam in Ukrainian as a foreign language, the Standard of Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, Ukrainian as a foreign language, levels of proficiency in Ukrainian as a foreign language.","PeriodicalId":153346,"journal":{"name":"Theory and Practice of Teaching Ukrainian as a Foreign Language","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121631649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
