Prior to Belarus gaining its independence from the Soviet Union in 1992, the language was called "Byelorussian" or "Belorussian" (in accordance with the ethnicity and country names: Byelorussians, Byelorussia, the latter being a transliteration from the Russian language).

Where can I find a I am a native English speaker
who speaks Russian reasonably
well and I have had some
exposure to the Belarusian
language. I think I have found
(and worked through) most of
the free internet resources,
but I would like to find a
Belarusian equivalent to the
first and second year courses
taught in other languages at
the University level.

To tell you the truth, I never came across such a textbook. I guess it is because Belarusian is not a very popular language to learn. However, there is such program as Language Exchange, which pairs you with the native speaker of the language you are learning so that you can practice your Belarusian by writing e-mails or practice verbal converstion thru voice-chat. I have never used the program myself, but here is a link if you are interested http://www.mylanguageexchange. com/Learn/Belarusian.asp. also, Belarusian embassy in the UK offers courses on Belarusian language. It might do the same in your country. |

In Belorusian it's: "Мне вельмі шкада. Думаю, у нас ёсць нешта, што працуе, нам варта было б даць адзін аднаму яшчэ адзін шанец. Цэлую!" (=Kisses, we usually don't say Huhg and kisses, just "kiss you") Mnyeh vyehl'-mee SHKAH-dah. DOO-mah-you, oo nus yosts NEH-stah, shtoh PRAH-tsoo-yeh, num VAHR-tah BEE-loh b dats adzin AHd-nah-moo Yash-cheh adzin SHAH-nets. Tseh-LOO-you But you want to say it to a Belorusian you can use Russian language, they all speak it.. =) "Мне очень жаль. Думаю, у нас есть нечто, что работает, так нам следовало бы дать друг другу ещё один шанс. Целую." Mnyeh oh-chen' zhahl'. DOO-mah-you oo nus ehst' neh-chtah, shtoh rah-BOH-tah-yet, tuk num SLEH-dah-vah-lah bee daht' drook DROO-goo e-shyo ah-DEEN shans. Tseh-LOO-you |

Belarusian is regularly spoken by 10-20% of people in Belarus, because state supports Russian language in daily usage. Belarusian and Russian are wuite different. I can speak Belarusian fluently but I understand only about 60% of Russian words |
