The fans will come to Ukraine and Poland, two host countries, from all over the world. And the majority of them will not speak local languages - Polish and Ukrainian. Will a language barrier be a problem for them?
In the effort to bridge the language and cultural barriers, the EuroLang 2012 Project offers free Ukrainian and Polish language/culture packages. They are aimed at helping football fans, who will visit the European Football Championship 2012, to overcome communicative barriers in host countries. The language packages consist of a self-study e-learning language course, audio files, a phrase guide, and a glossary. Cultural information packages include information on history, customs, traditions, and places of historical interest in Poland and Ukraine. The Polish language learning package is complete and you can use it to learn Polish at the basic level. However, the situation with the package for learning Ukrainian is not so good. As a native speaker of Ukrainian, I’ve reviewed this package (review date: March 29, 2010) and found out that it is incomplete. First, one has to create an account on EuroLang 2012 Project page to be able to access this package. Although the course is meant for football fans, anyone, who wants to learn basic Ukrainian, can use it. The course consists of 19 lessons. Each lesson is subdivided into 5 sections: the main topic of the lesson accompanied by an audio file, exercises, multimedia exercises, grammar, and vocabulary. Unfortunately, almost each Ukrainian lesson has three sections (exercises, multimedia exercises, and vocabulary) in Polish instead of Ukrainian. HOWEVER, the Ukrainian language course is still at the development stage and hopefully the Polish language will be soon replaced by Ukrainian where appropriate.
