Ukrainian (in Ukrainian: украї́нська мо́ва, ukrayins'ka mova, [ukrɑˈjinʲsʲkɑ ˈmɔβ̞ɑ]) is a language of the East Slavic subgroup of the Slavic languages. It is the official state language of Ukraine; its dialects such as Surzhyk and Balachka are spoken in Ukraine and some parts of Russia. Written Ukrainian uses the Cyrillic alphabet. The language shares some vocabulary with the languages of the neighboring Slavic nations, most notably with Polish, Slovak in the West and Belarusan, Russian in the North and the East.
The Ukrainian language traces its origins to the Old Slavic language of the early medieval state of Kievan Rus'. In its earlier stages it was called Ruthenian by the western Europe. Ukrainian is a lineal descendant of the colloquial language used in Kievan Rus (10th–13th century).
The language has persisted despite several periods of bans and/or discouragement throughout centuries as it has always maintained a sufficient base among the people of Ukraine, its folklore songs, itinerant musicians, and prominent authors.
It is accepted that before the eighteenth century the precursor to the modern literary Ukrainian language was a vernacular language used mostly by peasants<i>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=46279 ..... full article at Wikipedia]</i></td></tr>
