The required duration of time can differ a lot depending on your already acquired level of Ukrainian or familiarity with other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, start a journal or write posts and comments using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in Ukrainian out loud.
