Tnx, Vaasiliy, but pay your attention that she has russian mane and surname and even speaks on "belarussian" with a lot of russian words.
It's like rethel and magnolia cases but more hillarious

My great grand mother was born near Brest Litovsk in the late 19th century, she considered herself Russian and only spoke Russian but didn't have a Russian family name (I guess it could have been a Belarussian name).
I don't have answer for this, perhaps because it was a very small ethnicity close to a bigger and quite close other they lost their language and a part of their culture.

I suspect it is a manifestation of dialect-leveling. The Irish people's general lack of proficiency in Gaelic is actually disheartening because it had a respected literary tradition and Gaelic is quite distinct from English. Belarussian on the other hand, has a close proximity to Russian.

It's a shame. Belarusian is an awesome-sounding language in my opinion.

Belarussian is mostly spoken & teached in ... Poland nowadays.

Even the only TV channel regularly broadcasting in Belarussian language has its headquarters in Poland.
