Hannia, I fully agree that it is a sort of sidetracking. But people often ask directly about it ( as in the example) , and sometimes it helps /can help in a primary task. Your page attracts the biggest number of visitors and I hope some additional colors are interesting for them as well.
I wish we had someone who is as knowledgeable, dedicated, and open as you to start Ukr traditions page. I think many questions including those translations-transliterations could be discussed there.
I am persuaded with your explanation ( always thought it is West Ukr dialect ).

The situation is more interesting as I see.
As for the physical appearance - I do hope to meet you one day , my old good friend. Hope you don’t wear hijab .


I will improve my Tatar/Turkish / English - have so much to talk with you !
