about

Cherkasy is a city in central Ukraine on the Dnipro. It is the administrative centre of a region strongly associated with Cossack history and the poet Taras Shevchenko.

Tcherkassy est une ville du centre de l’Ukraine, sur le Dniepr. Elle est le centre administratif d’une région étroitement liée à l’histoire cosaque et au poète Taras Chevtchenko.

notes

Tcherkassy is retained as an established French form; it is not labelled as the Ukrainian national romanization. Some alternatives are explicitly standard-derived retrieval forms, not individually attested press spellings; this contributes to medium certainty.
