Yaroslav Osmomysl (Old East Slavic: Осмомыслъ Ярославъ, Osmomyslŭ Jaroslavŭ; Ukrainian: Ярослав Володимирович Осмомисл, Yaroslav Volodymyrkovych Osmomysl) (c. 1135 – 1 October 1187) was a prince of Halych (now in western Ukraine). He is best-known for appearing in The Tale of Igor's Campaign. His sobriquet, meaning "Eight-Minded" in Old East Slavic, was granted to him in recognition of his wisdom. Some scholars even assert that Yaroslav was fluent in eight foreign languages.^{[citation needed]}
