  2. husband
  3. man, human

Usage notes edit

The term is a false friend to many Slavic cognates, including Russian: челове́к (čelovék) and Belarusian: чалаве́к (čalavjék), and its plural is regular. The senses "male human" and "husband" are specific to Ukrainian. The word люди́на (ljudýna) is a more common term for singular "human", "human being".
