23 февраля 2020
Not only business, but also the mother tongue is being promoted today. Domestic advertisers are increasingly turning to the Belarusian, while designers boldly quote the classics of literature. 

According to the official statistics of 2012, more than 5 million people consider the Belarusian their native language, which is 60% of the total population. 

Linguists and historians are constantly working on dictionaries. This week the project of the century was presented by the National Academy of Sciences - "Belarusian Ways". This is the only publication that contains 75 thousand lexemes of the old Belarusian literary language for 500 years of existence of the spiritual culture of the Belarusian people.
