    Беларусь

    Is it Беларусь or Белорусь?

    And didn't it used to be Белоруссия?
    What is the offical title of the country in Russian, and what do most people call it.

    I did a Google on it and found

    1,230,000 hits for Беларусь

    24,900 hits for Белорусь

    So 5 to 1 says it's Беларусь.
    Какая разница, умереть богатым или бедным?

    Какой толк от богатства если ты не счастлив.

    По-русски должно быть Белоруссия. По-белорусски - Беларусь. Просто при Ельцине начали коверкать русский язык, до сих пор сказывается - Киргизия сейчас Кыргызстан, Башкирия - Башкортостан, Татария - Татарстан... хорошо хоть Англия не стала Инглэндом а Китай - Чжун-го.

    If your numbers are correct it is 50 to 1 and not 5 to 1.

    Oops. Your right. It is 50 to 1.
    I flunked math.

    Not this topic again! I read through two really big topics discussing similar problems. It is indeed interesting but rather tiresome. Check this:

    Belorussia - http://forum.lingvo.ru/actualthread.asp ... =7422&pg=1

    Ukraine - http://forum.lingvo.ru/actualthread.asp ... =3774&pg=1
