"You like bread, but you do not like honey."

Translation: Ви любите хліб, але ви не любите мед.

[Anna_Ptrica]

Is любите singular or plural? How can I know that?

[Tielbert]

Любите is plural or polite singular. Just see context.

[DariaWatkin]

How does one know if You is Ти or Bи?

[Tielbert]

English does not distinguish them, therefore you just conclude it from the context. Note that Ви is widely used to address single person, if s/he is not your friend or mate or close relative whom you may say ти.

[arkelley71]

So I take it that "проте" also can mean "but".

[Tielbert]

Проте is however, along with втім, однак.

[Chris76069]

I accept your translation but I assumed you were asking me to say that "I" liked bread but not honey. I agree that the correct word for "but" in this sentence is "ale"

[MarksAaron]

Gotcha. Makes sense ;)

[Jean564934]

I'm suddenly confused about when to use ти and ви. Singular and plural for you or is one more formal?

[Tielbert]

Ви is plural you and singular polite form (like German Sie, italian Lei). Ти is always informal singular you.

[DzoDzo14]

Why "но" is not good for "but"?

[Tielbert]

Because there is no such word in Ukrainian.

[MarksAaron]

"і" also means "but"?

[Vinnfred]

"і" never means "but". "A" can cometimes, but not "i"

[MarksAaron]

I was given the Ukrainian version of this sentence with "i" instead of "але". Some sort of glitch?

[KellyAnchikoski]

That is my question also

[deactivated user]

Just report as hard as you can! :)

[Ash-Fred]

how about та?

[Vinnfred]

Та can mean either "and" or "but"

[Ash-Fred]

Thank you! Is а the same as та then? I'm so confused there are so many and's and but's.

[LukianHusak]

No...i means and...it should be a
