Hi, SEELANGers!

In the last several days I've added three new articles in English to
pravapis.org:

* http://www.pravapis.org/art_soviet_nationalism.asp
"Soviet Nationalism as Lukashenka's Strategy of Survival" byJan
Maksymiuk
An interview with Andrey Dynko, editor-in-chief of the Minsk-based
Belarusian-language weekly "Nasha Niva," and chairman of Belarus's
P.E.N. Center. Dynko is a leading figure among those Belarusian
intellectuals who oppose the Russification and re-Sovietization policies
pursued by the regime of Belarusian President and stand for the
development of Belarus's indigenous culture and language.

* http://www.pravapis.org/art_chagall.asp
"Marc Chagall Biography"
Marc Chagall is a famous Belarusian-born French painter and designer who
grew up in a Jewisch family in Vitebsk, Belarus. Marc Chagall is
recognized as one of the most significant painters and graphic artists
of the 20th century.

"Forming Plural Nominative in Russian and Belarusian"
A simple step-by-step explanation on how to form plural nominative in
Russian and Belarusian with many examples and comparison of the two
systems. An introductry-level text for those who only began to study
either of the two languages.

* http://www.pravapis.org/art_belarusian_lecture_1968.asp
"Grammatical Changes in Modern Literary Belarusian" by prof. de Bray
This is a public lecture given under the auspices of the
Anglo-Byelorussian Society in London on the 26th of January, 1968 by
professor Reginald George Arthur De Bray, devoted to changes in literary
Belarusian after the Soviet reform of 1933. A very interesting
persepctive and a good introduction to anyone who wants to know what are
the key differences between the classical and the Soviet orthography.
