FYI that last character is just a “stop” character, not a в/В. So Letyat.
Interesting, thanks for the explanation. Sounds as quirky as the french with their silent h… I mean, we generally see that a word is ending ;)
Yeah my understanding of Ukrainian is limited to what I’ve picked up from DuoLingo. 😅 I can see why you’d include a character like that in the middle of a word, but at the end? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
It's not a stop, this character indicates that the preceding consonant is soft.
Thanks for the correction!
