Learn Ukrainian, слово за словом
Start with the alphabet, then learn the words modern Ukrainian actually uses, most frequent first, level by level. Each lesson teaches twenty words with spaced review, and each unit ends with a checkpoint. The word list is the Ukrainian Frequency corpus study; the levels come from the validated PULS profile.

How much real Ukrainian you can read
Out of every 100 words of running Ukrainian text, this many are words you know. Knowing a word counts all its forms.
Finish a lesson and this fills in: the first unit alone covers about 31.6% of running text, because the most frequent words come first.
The whole course covers 75.1% of running text; the rest is rarer words, names and numbers. Measured against UberText 2.0, the corpus the frequency list is built from. Placed-out units are not counted until you review their words.

Your numbers
A word counts as mastered when its review interval passes three weeks. Placed-out units never count as mastered.
