Скільки вам років?

скільки вам років

How old are you?

意思

Asking for someone's age.

🌍

文化背景

Asking a woman her age is often seen as a 'faux pas'. If you must ask, it is polite to add a compliment about how young they look. There is a stronger emphasis on using 'Ви' (formal) even with older family members in some traditional villages, making 'Скільки вам років?' the standard even at home. In diaspora communities (Canada/USA), the phrase 'Многая літа' (Many years) is a common song for birthdays, reflecting the older 'літа' (summers) terminology for age. On apps like Tinder in Ukraine, age is usually displayed automatically, so asking 'Скільки тобі років?' might imply you haven't read their profile.

💡

The Dative Rule

Always remember that in Ukrainian, you don't 'are' an age, you 'have years assigned to you'. Use 'Мені', 'Тобі', 'Вам'.

⚠️

The 1-2-5 Rule

The word for year changes: 1 рік, 2 роки, 5 років. This is the most common mistake for beginners.

Compliment First

If asking an adult their age, it's always safer to say 'Ви виглядаєте дуже молодо' (You look very young) first.

Technically people will understand you, but it's grammatically incorrect in Ukrainian. It sounds like a translation from Polish.

It depends. With elders or in professional settings, it's fine. With women in social settings, it's better to avoid it.

'Скільки' is a quantifier that requires the Genitive plural form of the noun.

You say 'Мені двадцять один рік' because it ends in 1.

You say 'Мені двадцять два роки' because it ends in 2.

You say 'Мені двадцять п'ять років' because it ends in 5.

In very casual settings, you can just say 'Тобі скільки?'

Use 'Скільки тобі років, малюк?'

'Вік' is the noun for 'age' or 'century'.

No, for objects we usually ask 'Скільки цьому [об'єкту] років?' or 'Який вік цієї будівлі?'
