Based on the achievements of linguists, the most prominent linguistic research centers include the Warsaw center (University of Warsaw), the Wrocław center (University of Wrocław), the Kraków center (Jagiellonian University), the Lublin center (John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin and Maria Curie-Skłodowska University), and the Poznań center (Adam Mickiewicz University). These scientific centers, which advance Ukrainian linguistics, were established through the dedicated efforts of renowned scholars, such as M. Lesiv and F. Chyzhevskyi (Lublin), A. Falowski (Kraków), and D. Wieczorek (Wrocław). Their students and successors continue their legacy, including I. Mytnyk (Warsaw), P. Yuzvikevych (Wrocław), A. Dudek-Shumigai, M. Koider and M. Oliynyk (Lublin). Significant contributions have also been made by Ukrainian linguists currently working in Polish universities, such as I. Kononenko and S. Romaniuk (Warsaw), O. Beley (Wrocław), and L. Frolyak (Lublin), among others, as well as by visiting professors who promote Ukrainian scholarship internationally (e.g., P. Hrytsenko, A. Zahnitko, O. Serbenska, M. Skab). Key research areas of Polish linguists include dialectology, onomastics, terminology, the history of the Ukrainian language, lexicology, word formation, grammar, stylistics, modern Ukrainian language culture, lexicography, terminography, phraseography, ethnolinguistics, Ukrainian linguistic folklore studies, sociolinguistics, theological linguistics, comparative studies of Ukrainian and Polish languages, translation studies, and linguodidactics.}, url = {https://evu.encyclopedia.kyiv.ua/article/129}, keywords = {Historiography, Scientific Activity Areas, Academic Linguistic Centers, Polish Linguistic Ukrainian Studies, Founders of Ukrainian Studies in Poland} }
