↑The "soft" vowel letters ‹є, ї, ю, я› represent a /j/ and a vowel when initial or following other vowels.
↑The /w/ phoneme has two allophones: * Bilabial approximant [β̞] (transcribed here [β] for simplicity) before vowels; * Labialized velar semivowel [u̯] before a consonant at the start of word, after a vowel before a consonant and after a vowel at the end of a word (Жовтобрюх & Кулик (1965:121–122)).
↑In یوکرینی زبان, geminates are found between vowels: багаття /bɑˈɦɑtʲːɑ/bonfire, подружжя /pɔˈdruʒːɑ/married couple, обличчя face. Geminates also occur at the start of a few words: лляний /ˈlʲːɑnɪj/flaxen, forms of the verb лити to pour (ллю /lʲːu/, ллєш /lʲːɛʃ/ etc.), ссати /ˈsːɑtɪ/to suck and derivatives.[حوالہ درکار]
