Movapp Translator

Do you need to learn Czech or Ukrainian? Mова [mova] means language in Ukrainian. The idea behind Movapp.cz is to ease communication between Czechs and Ukrainians during the current humanitarian crisis.

We are here if you need to…

• learn what the Czech and Ukrainian alphabets look like

• solve a situation with your kid’s teacher in a play group or at school

• make an appointment with a doctor

• communicate with bureaucratic officials, such as the unemployment office

• … solve other similar problems

Why use our application?

The application works even offline. You will find more than 1,000 communication phrases in both Czech and Ukrainian sorted according to real-life situations (doctor, school, the job center…). The children’s section contains vocabulary followed-up by pictures which makes learning fun. Try and learn all the characters of Ukrainian Cyrillic - example words will help you.

What can you look for in the future?

We will add a recording of each of the Ukrainian phrases and create tools to help you learn them. In addition, we are working on a guide to the other materials that will help you with learning both Ukrainian and Czech.

The application is being developed by a team of volunteers from the Czech Republic, Ukraine, Poland, and Slovakia.

Movapp is available for free and is created as open-source software under the MIT license. This means that you can not just use it for free, but adapt it and share the result.
