Inna, the wife of the attacking midfielder of "Al-Ain" and the national team of Ukraine Andrii Yarmolenko, told who in the family had the hardest time switching to the Ukrainian language.
— I spoke more Russian, English, I remember Ukrainian only from school, but now, in these conditions, of course I understand how important it is for me personally, for my family.
To be honest, it is in the Arab Emirates that we really want to be seen as Ukrainians, because there are a lot of Russian speakers here, and we really want to stand out.
So that everyone hears that we are from Ukraine, because we are proud of it. I believe that Andriy speaks the best, it is quite difficult for children, but they try very hard. Andriy speaks exclusively Ukrainian with children, even with the youngest, in order to instill it in him from childhood.
Andriy always spoke Ukrainian with his parents and families, that is, Russian with me, Ukrainian with them. It was not a problem for him, said Inna on the Youtube channel of Anna Rebrova.
