Language Feminization in Ukrainian and Russian
Abstract
Over recent years, Ukrainian and Russian have been going through a number of sociolinguistic transformations. Feminist linguistic activism has become a marker of sociopolitical changes in the two language spaces. It has spread with a goal to identify and modify the rules that were developed and used to restrain the language and subject it to men-centered linguistic regulations.
This article will discuss and compare the transformations Ukrainian and Russian are experiencing as well as analyze the received data on the morphological level.
