Автомобіль (avtomobil) is the Ukrainian word for 'automobile' or 'car'. The term is derived from two words: the Greek 'αὐτός' (autós), meaning 'self', and the Latin 'mobilis', meaning 'movable' or 'capable of moving'. Thus, the word essentially describes a self-propelled vehicle. The word's adoption and spread across many languages coincides with the rise of the automobile in the early 20th century as a primary mode of transportation.

Космічний корабель (kosmichnyy korabel) translates to 'spacecraft' or 'spaceship'. Breaking it down, 'космічний' (kosmichnyy) derives from the Greek 'κόσμος' (kósmos), meaning 'universe' or 'world', hence signifying 'cosmic' or 'space'. The term 'корабель' (korabel) is Ukrainian for 'ship', echoing the idea of voyages but extended beyond oceans to outer space. It's fascinating to see how we've used maritime terminology to describe travel in the cosmos, showing humanity's tendency to use known concepts to describe the unknown.

Etymology offers intriguing insights into how languages adapt and evolve in tandem with technological and societal advancements.
