language query

[Genevra Gerhart]

Mr. Buryanyuk,
Let's put it this way:  for a Russian, Ukrainian, by definition, is
something else again.  For a Ukrainian, Russian is something else again.
One is one thing and one is another.  Do not confuse issues by
taking umbrage at terminology like "substandard,":  that is what they
are to each other. Each language has its own standards, and,
substandards. The world has  enough trouble without the insistence that
one's own is godsent. gg
PS:  Physics has the advantage of being less tainted by emotion.
