The Belarusian definite article

The definite article is what we call the word 'the' in English. The English definite article 'the' does not exist in Belarusian. Unlike English, a noun on its own can be considered definite without the need for a specific word to show this.

Examples

tidjen

the week

yablik

the apple

šestra

Step 4 : The definite article in Belarusian

The definite article is what we call the word the in English. The definite article is used with nouns in English (the book, the chair, the door etc.). Using the nouns kniga, kresla and djveri (book, chair, door) which you learned in Step 3, learn how to use each noun with the definite article. This is easy in Belarusian, because in Belarusian, there is no definite article. So the word kniga can mean book or the book, the word kresla can mean chair or the chair and the word djveri can mean door or the door. You can scroll to the top of this page to see a short lesson about the definite article in Belarusian including useful examples. Once you have learned to use the definite article with the Belarusian nouns kniga, kresla and djveri, you're ready to move on to Step 5 (the plural in Belarusian).
