Ukraine may soon reach the point where cats will also be checked for Ukrainian-speaking. At least, publications are already appearing in the media of Western Ukraine that real Ukrainian cats do not meow, but yap.
"Trams run around Lviv with advertisements of the following content: "The first word of my cat is Meow!“. It's not even interesting what exactly they advertise there, the most interesting thing is that Ukrainian cats, unlike Katsap cats, never say "Meow", only "Yow", that is, they don't meow, but yap," writes Zahid in the publication.Nat" is a connoisseur of Lviv Ilko Lemko.
He believes that these are too high matters for advertising producers, who still need to grow up before them and get the appropriate IQ.
"Because to abandon the familiar, native, understandable Katsap "Meow" in favor of the incomprehensible, strange, exotic Ukrainian "Nyav" is a significant intellectual work," Ilko Lemko does not let up.
Further in his article, the Lviv local historian again rinses fellow citizens for incorrect knowledge of the Ukrainian language. However, the words said about cats were enough to attract the attention of the public. Including adequate.
"Of course, this is a purely internal Lviv issue, but I see that things are moving smoothly towards the appearance of language commissioners," MP Max Buzhansky writes in the telegram channel.
He ironically believes that meowing cats need to be struck in the rights in favor of yapping, Moreover, it is necessary to derive a scientific formula for the owner's trustworthiness depending on the behavior of the cat.
"To get a grant for this, to create a Code of good faith, everything, as always, is shorter," the parliamentarian jokes sadly.
According to him, there used to be a fierce discussion about which rockets to make, solid-fuel or liquid-fuel.
"Now - to meow to cats, or to yap. But this is not for a long time, cats are not people, they will not tolerate, they will leave," added Max Buzhansky.
