        abstract = {The Ukrainian language is among the determining factors of the national identity of the Ukrainian people, shaped by the historical progress of an indomitable state in the center of Europe. With the beginning of the Russian-Ukrainian war, it became a marker of citizens' self-awareness, a sign of unity and freedom, and a distinction between
"own" and "foreign". Instead, the state language policy evolved from a nominative
ideological postulate, scattered in declarative documents, into a tangible set of tools for
protecting human rights and freedoms and the country's language system as a whole.
Despite the long-term lack of consistent steps to protect the constitutional status of the
state language, which led to the creation of numerous legislative initiatives, programs and
strategies, including some of a threatening nature, real historical changes in the linguistic
landscape of the state began only with the enactment of the Law of Ukraine "On Ensuring
the Functioning of the Ukrainian Language as a State Language" (2019). This law provided
guaranteed protection for the Ukrainian language as the state language, as well as the
rights of Ukrainian citizens to information and services in the state language throughout
the entire territory of the country. In addition to e?ective mechanisms for the protection
of the state language, the emergence of the main language institutions, namely: the
State Language Protection Commissioner, the National Commission for State Language
Standards, made state language policies tangible. Cultural ideology, language stability, and
high public trust in the establishment of national priorities became evident. This is also
noticeable at the level of regional language policy implementation, which, emerging from
a state of challenges and dangers to a high degree of state activity, public support, and
mass transition to the Ukrainian language, represents the true defense of the rights of
indomitable citizens during the most extensive Ukrainization of the century.},
