Dictionary meaning
The name of ancient Hebrew origin literally means "God will add" or "will be added."
English pronunciation
To pronounce the Ukrainian name "Yosyf," break it down into syllables: "Yo-syf." The initial "Yo" sounds like the "yo" in "yolk" (using the "й" as the English "y"); the second syllable "syf" can be pronounced with a short "i" (as in "sift") followed by the "f" sound (like in "foot"). Therefore, the full pronunciation should sound like "Yoh-sif," keeping the emphasis on the first syllable.
