意思
Asking someone to say something again.
文化背景
Ukrainians value eye contact when asking for clarification. It shows you are genuinely interested in what the other person is saying. In cities like Lviv, you will frequently hear 'Прошу?' (I beg your pardon?) instead of 'Повторіть'. This is a regional marker of politeness. In older diaspora communities (Canada, USA), you might hear 'Прошу повторити', which is a slightly more formal, older construction. In Slack or Telegram, Ukrainians often shorten this to 'Можна ще раз?' (Can [I have it] one more time?) or just 'Ще раз?' in fast chats.
The 'Ear' Gesture
If you are in a noisy place, cup your ear while saying the phrase. It helps the speaker realize they need to speak louder, not just repeat.
Don't forget the 'іть'
Saying 'Повтори' to a stranger can be seen as disrespectful. Always use 'Повторіть' unless you are 100% sure you are on 'ти' terms.

The Power of a Smile
Ukrainians are very helpful to learners. A smile combined with 'Повторіть, будь ласка' will almost always get you a slower, clearer explanation.
