Why these 1,000 words matter
Ukrainian vocabulary is astonishingly top-heavy: the 100 most frequent words make up about half of everything you will ever hear or read, and the top 1,000 cover roughly 85% of everyday speech. Learn these first and most sentences around you turn from noise into language.
The list below is ranked by how often each word actually occurs in spoken Ukrainian — dictionary forms, with concise English translations, the part of speech, the CEFR level at which learners typically meet the word, and audio for every word in a female and a male voice. Show the top 250, 500 or all 1,000, and flip to A–Z when you want to look something up.

Frequently asked questions
Why learn Ukrainian words by frequency?
Word frequency is brutally top-heavy: a small core of words does almost all the work in everyday speech. Learning in frequency order front-loads exactly those words, so every hour of study unlocks the largest possible share of real conversations, shows and books — instead of textbook chapter vocabulary you might not meet for months.
How many Ukrainian words do I need to understand conversations?
The 100 most common Ukrainian words already cover roughly half of everyday speech, the top 1,000 around 85%, and about 2,500–3,000 words push you past 95%. That last stretch is the long tail — but this list is the highest-value first mile: master it and most sentences you hear will be built from words you know.
What do the CEFR levels next to the words mean?
Each word carries the CEFR level (A1–B2) at which learners typically study it. Most of the top 1,000 is A1–A2 — high frequency and beginner vocabulary largely overlap — with the tail reaching into B1–B2. If the B1 and B2 words in the list feel unfamiliar, that is a normal place for an A2 learner to be.
How was the audio made?
Every word was recorded individually with two studio-grade neural text-to-speech voices — one female, one male — so you can hear each word in isolation and compare pronunciations. Use the voice toggle above the table to switch; the clips are short, natural and free to replay as often as you like.
Is this a list of dictionary forms or word forms?
Ukrainian is written in the Cyrillic alphabet. Verbs are listed in the -ти infinitive (бути 'to be', робити 'to do'); nouns appear in the nominative singular. You'll meet these lemmas in many case-inflected forms in running text.
The words are in a different alphabet — is that Cyrillic?
Yes. Ukrainian is written in the Cyrillic alphabet, and it has a few letters that are distinctively Ukrainian: і (as in "kit"), ї ("yi"), є ("ye"), ґ (a hard "g", distinct from г which is a soft "h"), and the apostrophe ' which marks a hard break before a softening vowel. Some letters look like Latin ones and sound the same (а, к, о, т), some look familiar but sound different (в is "v", н is "n", р is "r", с is "s"). Ukrainian is highly phonetic once you know the letters, so play the audio as you read each entry to connect the letters to their sounds.
What form of the verb is shown?
Verbs are given in their dictionary citation form: the infinitive, which ends in -ти (бути "to be", робити "to do", мати "to have"). Nouns are shown in the nominative singular. Ukrainian inflects heavily — nouns and adjectives decline for seven cases and verbs conjugate — so you will meet these same lemmas in many different endings in real text; the list gives the base form you look up. The high-frequency pronouns, particles and prepositions (я, і, не, що, в, на, з…) sit near the top because they are the most frequent tokens in the language.
How should I study this list?
Don't memorize it top to bottom in one go. Work in slices (the Top 250 view is a good first target), listen to every word as you review it, and meet the same words in context as fast as possible — graded stories and podcasts at your level are where frequency vocabulary actually sticks. Spaced-repetition flashcards work well for the concrete nouns and verbs in the tail.
Don't just read the list — learn it
