[lg policy] Another dimension of the language situation in Ukraine

[Fierman, William]

In considering the Russian/Ukrainian language divide in Ukraine it is useful to keep in mind that many people alternate between the languages and/or speak some mixed form of Russian and Ukrainian, surzhyk. As Bilaniuk describes, "surzhyk" actually refers to several different types of language. For more information see http://www.wilsoncenter.org/publication/defining-surzhyk-contemporary-ukraine
