Belarusian · Беларуская · AI speaking partner
Belarusian, spoken and kept alive.
Most people who learn Belarusian already understand it and have never spoken it: they grew up with Russian at home and Belarusian on the signs. Speaking it well is a choice, and a conversation partner who never switches to Russian is hard to find.
Your AI partner talks with you in Belarusian, corrects the Russian words and endings that leak in, and keeps going. For the diaspora, for families, for anyone who wants the language to be theirs.
Беларуская
Unlock your Belarusian fluency
Speak from day one. Real conversations, corrected out loud.
Why Belarusian is hard to speak
What stops learners talking, and what fixes it.
Not Russian
"Дзякуй" not "спасибо", "добры дзень" not "добрый день", and the soft "дз" and "ц" where Russian has "д" and "т". Each slip caught on screen.
Akanne and the spelling that follows speech
Unstressed "о" becomes "а" and is written so: "малако". Hearing yourself corrected trains both ear and eye.
Six cases plus the vocative
The endings carry the sentence. Learned by using them, in sentences about your own day.

Questions
Before you start speaking Belarusian
I speak Russian. Will this help me switch to Belarusian?
This is the commonest reason to come. You understand nearly everything; the work is in what you say, and the partner catches each Russian word, stress and ending that slips in.
Is it the standard (narkamauka) or taraškievica?
The modern standard used in schools and media. Ask for classical forms and your partner will accept them.
Are the corrections explained in my own language?
Yes. You choose the language you already speak at setup (English, Urdu, Hindi, Arabic and 50 more), and explanations in Start from Zero and Word Mode come in it while the practice stays in Belarusian.
Is Belarusian practice free?
