Yakshcho is "if", fused into one word. The verb is the go-out verb again: whether it "comes out" is whether the plan works.
A word with a story stays in memory longer than one learned as a “spelling — translation” pair: memory holds on to meaning, not to a string.
In a live sentence

Yes, no, good, bad, very. The small change of a language — and no sentence assembles without it.
- такtakyesMeans "yes", and also "so, thus": tak i ie — so it is.
- ніninoA short, firm "no". To negate a verb, put ne in front of it: ne rozumiyu — "I do not understand", no helper verb.
- добреdobrefineThe standard answer: dobre, diakuyu — "fine, thank you". The adjective dobyi is "good" — same family, different job.
- поганоpohanobadlyThe plain opposite of dobre — how you feel or how things went. Pohano sounds a touch like "poorly", which fits the meaning.
- чудовоchudovoexcellentFrom chudo, "miracle" — so "miraculously good". Warmer than dobre: say it when things really are great.
- требаtrebait is necessaryAn impersonal word that never changes shape: treba pratcuvaty — "one must work". Add a person with a little word: treba mi — "I need to".
- наnaonWorks as expected: na vokzali "at the station", na roboti "at work". After it comes the "where" form case — the "location" ending.
- вvinBefore consonant clusters it swaps to u for the ear's sake: v misti but u Kyivi. Same word, two costumes, zero change of meaning.
- іiandBetween vowels it shrinks to y, like an apostrophe: mama y tato — "mom and dad". A second "and" is ta: mama ta tato.
- алеalebutThe plain "but" of protest. After a negation Ukrainian switches to a: ne kava, a chay — "not coffee but tea".
