OK, that's absolutely crazy. As cited on the
Requests for New
Languages page, there are also newspapers written in socalled
"Narkamauka".
Today most belarusian people speaks Russsian in everyday life,
unfortunatly. This is result of massive rusification conducted by
Russian Emperia, then by USSR authorities and now by last dictator in
Europe, Mr. Lukashenko. This is why most belarusian newspapers written
in Russian. and Belarusian language in Belarus is spoken by minority of
population.
What do they use at
http://gov.by/ let me guess...
NOT
tarashkievitsa?
No, they don't. With some exceptions they use RUSSIAN ONLY! This is the
prove of discrimination of Belarusian Language alltogether, which
accordinly to our constitution is on of two (another one is Russian)
state languages!
Let's have a closer look:

I can continue if you wish...
Remind me, of all people educated in Belarus, which ones were taught
to read in Classical Belarusan at school? NONE, they all learnt Modern
Belarusan,
They all learnt Russian in school, because in Belarus there are no
schools or Universities where education is in Belarusian. Belarusian
Language and Literature is taught as a foreign language.
that is the language read by the millions of speakers of
the Belarusan Language.
Millions of speakers of Russian Language, you whant to say.
Only a minority use the "Classical grammar",
and even those people were educated in Official
Belarusan.
You try to put down the official language with names such as
"narkamauka", and say it is "soviet imposed".
It's a shame, but unfortunatly (as facts prove) official language in
Belarus is Russian for now.
This situation will change when regime of Lukashenko will gone.
