- Yiddish rigorously distinguishes between Jews and non-Jews in national terminology. A Ukrainian non-Jewish woman is not an ukrainishe, but rather an אוקראַיִנערין (ukrainerin) or אוקראַיִנערקע (ukrainerke).
- This noun declines in much the same way as the adjective אוקראַיִניש (ukrainish), but without the separate predicate form. For example, the dative singular is אוקראַיִנישער (ukrainisher).
