Significado
Asking for contact information.
Contexto cultural
Ukrainians rarely use SMS. If you have someone's number, you are expected to use Telegram or Viber. Telegram is currently the most popular for all ages. Exchanging phone numbers is often preferred over LinkedIn in Ukraine. It's seen as a more direct and reliable way to get things done. Younger Ukrainians might find a direct phone call 'scary' or 'aggressive' without a prior text. Always text first! In cities like Lviv, the formal 'Ви' (and thus 'ваш') is used very strictly, even with people only slightly older than you.
The 'Viber' check
After getting a number, ask 'Ви є у Вайбері?' (Are you on Viber?). It's the most common way to start a text conversation in Ukraine.
Don't say 'Що'
Never start this question with 'Що'. It's the most obvious sign of a beginner English-speaking learner.
