Abstract
The work is dedicated to the problems of Ukrainian oral speech on the diachronic level, including the establishment of the standards of Ukrainian orthoepy. The author’s attention is focused on the rules of pronunciation of vowels, consonants and sound combinations in kobzar-incunabulae by T. G. Shevchenko (1840), P. Hulak-Artemovs’kyj (1877) and Ie. P. Hrebinka (1878). The orthographic system in the analysed books was built mostly on phonetic principles; due to the peculiarities of spelling, and often in spite of them, the pronunciation forms were set out, most of which have become the orthoepic norms of the modern Ukrainian language. The analysed works have played an important role in shaping these norms because they reflect the process of establishing the orthoepic norms in a certain chronological period, and demonstrate almost all the orthoepic norms of the modern Ukrainian language, especially the pronunciation of vowels [u], [e], voiced ones at the end of words and before voiceless consonants, the assimilation of sizzling vowels in front of the whistling ones and on the contrary, the lengthening and reduction, the orthoepic norms in the groups of other consonants.
