      Zrazumieło, čamu mokryje doski letam chutčej sochnuć pad žaleznym dacham, čym pad sałamianym.
      It's clear why wet boards dry faster in summer under an iron roof than under a thatched one.
    • 1938 [1848], Charles Dickens, anonymous translator, Домбі і сын, Minsk: ДВБ, translation of Dombey and Son, page 569:
      Дом астаўся па-ранейшаму велічным, не баіцца ветру і непагоды, дах не працякае, акяніцы не расхістаны, сцены не абваліліся, але, тым не менш, дом зрабіўся развалінай, і пацукі ўцякаюць з яго.
      Dom astaŭsja pa-ranjejšamu vjeličnym, nje baicca vjetru i njepahódy, dax nje pracjakaje, akjanicy nje rasxistany, scjeny nje abvalilisja, alje, tym nje mjenš, dom zrabiŭsja razvalinaj, i pacuki ŭcjakajucʹ z jahó.
      [original: It is a great house still, proof against wind and weather, without breaches in the roof, or shattered windows, or dilapidated walls; but it is a ruin none the less, and the rats fly from it.]
