btw, polnoglasie only applies to roots like korotkij which is kartus in lithuanian
Ukrajina comes from the word kraj which is kruoja in Lithuanian
so -ar- combinations are the ones that have polnoglasie, but the -ra-/-ro- combinations don't
Another example is Karl -> korol' but kra-d-ti -> krasti without change |
