About Belarusian Language
According to Wikipedia.org, Belarus is a popular country in Eastern Europe but it got independence in 1991. This country was traditionally known as Belorussia or White Russia. It is one of the smallest among the three Slavic republics of the Soviet Union. The larger ones are Russia and Ukraine. Belarusian and Russian are the official languages of Belarus. Even the dialects are transitional in both. If we talk about the written form it features Cyrillic alphabets. The loanwords are taken from both Polish and Russian. These words are also reflective of the history of the region. The total number of Belarusian speakers is 5.1 million. About 85.6% of Belarusians have declared it as their mother tongue. All the native speakers speak this language in their daily communications.
About Corsican Language
According to Wikipedia.org, The Corsican language is spoken by about 341,000 people in the world. The native speakers live in Corsica while some others live in Paris, Marseilles, Bolivia, Canada, and Cuba. However, it is surprising that this language doesn’t have any status in Corsica. French is the official language of Corsica. There isn’t any daily and weekly newspaper available in the Corsican language. Only a few French-language papers make use of this language to publish articles at times. Corsican is used for the official headlines only. Some political and cultural associations make sure that something in the Corsican language is printed in the magazines. The regional TV and radio station makes use of the Corsican language in several bulletins. Apart from that this language is used at all levels of education.
