    which translates to “say hail” in english

    https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/hail

    Verb

    hail (third-person singular simple present hails, present participle hailing, simple past and past participle hailed)

    (transitive) To greet; give salutation to; salute.

    (transitive) To name; to designate; to call. quotations ▼

    He was hailed as a hero.
    

    The problem with the german WWII one isn’t as much the word as who they were hailing.

    i very much doubt the Ukrainian word has the same negative connotations as the german one.
