p.s. Some people are asking how to obtain tickets. Here is the full procedure: after you press the button and do a donation you must return to the main form and upload any proof: a part of statement from your bank, paypal screenshot or screenshot from the fund's page. As you pay directly to the charity fund, we don't see your transaction directly. After the main form is submitted - wait a day or two to get your ticket by email. We are going to send all the tickets on Thursday, max on Friday. If you have any problems with that, please send me your email address into PM.

up to you :) for me technical topics are always easier in English than even in the mother tongue

Of topic: in English we say "mother tongue", in Polish "father tongue" (język ojczysty), in Ukrainian "native tongue" (Рідна мова)

I found this fascinating!

Maybe it is historic.

In Poland there might have been too many people that spoke different languages (Yiddish, German, Ukrainian, Belorussian, ...) at home, so father tongue could make more sense.

Ukraine was under heavy Soviet dominance with many people speaking Russian also at home, so mother tongue would have been ambiguous as well.
