A C1 Ukrainian reading on how the world moved from Kiev to Kyiv, why a Degas pastel is now called Ukrainian Dancers, and why names matter for decolonization.

journalistic vocabulary, names of institutions and documents, dating events, cause and effect, complex sentences
A C1 Ukrainian reading text about how Ukraine won the spelling Kyiv instead of Kiev: from the 2010 transliteration rules and the #KyivNotKiev campaign to the 2019 decisions of the US Board on Geographic Names and the Associated Press. It also covers the renaming of Degas pastels in London and New York and the Met's new description of Arkhyp Kuindzhi. The text ends with questions for the reader.
