What are lakhardziki, so loved in eastern Belarus

On social networks, residents of the Mogilev region recalled words that are not understood in the rest of Belarus. "Nasha Niva" investigated what trace the language of local Jews left and why an ordinary Babruysk garbage can is a real linguistic enigma.

A video on the Instagram account zatestilmogilev, which recalled several distinctive local household words, sparked active discussion in the comments.

Blogger Dzianis Blisch called this vocabulary "super-local village words," but hundreds of commentators under the video confirmed that this vocabulary is well-known to them and remains in live urban speech.

    Лáхардзікі.

    бацька з Магілёўшчыны а маці мая з тога кута дзе Клічаў Бялынічы ды Бярэзань кратаюць адзін адное.
    дык вось слова гэтае маці ведае, бацька кажа што маці яго навучыла, а дагэтуль не ведаў,- на Шклоўшчыне ў іх не ўжывалі
    Дзякуй вам!

    Не ўводзьце чытачоў у зман! Гэтае слова і на гомельшчыне (Рэчыца) добра ведаюць і карыстаюцца ім.
