The charts below show the way in which the [[International Phonetic Alphabet|International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)]] represents [[Ukrainian language]] pronunciations in Wikipedia articles.

Ukrainian makes contrasts between [[palatalization|palatalized]] "soft" and unpalatalized "hard" consonants.  Palatalized consonants, denoted by a superscript ‹j›  {{IPA|/ ʲ /}}, are pronounced with the body of the tongue raised toward the [[hard palate]], in a manner similar to the ‹y› sound in ''yes''.  All Ukrainian consonants except {{IPA|/j/}} have a soft and hard variant, however this distinction is [[phoneme|phonemic]] for only nine pairs—for the others the distinction can be ignored.

See [[Ukrainian phonology]] for a more thorough look at the sounds of Ukrainian.
