	Pravapis.org - Belarusian language - Belarusian Latin Script
		This Lacinka of the 16th-17th century was in several aspects similar to the Polish writing of that age: it used "cz" for [ch] (as in 'church'), "sz" for [sh] as in 'show', "ch" for the [ch]-sound as in 'loch', and "z" with upside down "^" for [zh] (pronounced like "s" in "pleasure").
		One may argue that the Belarusian Lacinka of that time was in a way a transliteration from the Cyrillic-based spelling, which could be close to the truth.
		Some manuscripts of the drama and verse kind in Belarusian Lacinka are known from the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century.

		Belarusians from the western part of the country (and the surrounding, historical ethnic areas of neighboring countries) often prefer the Lacinka (Latsinka) form of written Belarusian.
		Note: In error, some people use the term Lacinka to refer to "transliterated" Belarusian--a written form of Belarusian using the western alphabet (such as is used for English).
		Belarusians from the eastern part of the country (and the surrounding, historical ethnic areas of neighboring countries) often prefer the Cyrillic forms of written Belarusian.

	Pravapis.org - Belarusian language - Belarusian Alphabet (Cyrillic and Latin)
		This is an introduction to the two Belarusian alphabets: Cyrillics and Lacinka (Latin Script).
		No studies on Lacinka usage and therefore no good estimates on the number of Lacinka users exists because the current government views Cyrillics as the only official alphabet and ignores Lacinka altogether.
		The rest of the letters/sounds are, in the most cases, quite similar to the corresponding English letters and sounds.

	Belarus - LANGUAGE, RELIGION, AND CULTURE
		The standard literary language, first codified in 1918, is based on the dialect spoken in the central part of the country and is written in the Cyrillic alphabet.
		Under Polish influence, a parallel Latin alphabet (lacinka) was used by some writers in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and is still used today by some Roman Catholics in Belarus and abroad.
		One early proponent of the Belorussian language, poet Frantsishak Bahushyevich (1840-1900), the father of modern Belorussian literature and a participant in the 1863 uprising, was inspired by the fact that many 200- and 300-year-old documents written in Belorussian could be read and understood easily in modern times.

	Talk:Maladzyechna - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		However Lacinka is extreamely misleading as nobody will know how to pronounce some of the letters, it has negligent usage inside Belarus yet alone outside it, and frankly I see no point why people used it here in the first place.
		Lacinka is not an accepted national rule and I simply propose that we decide on whether to go by common usage or by the translit rules, and, in the latter case, decide between such rules.
		Monkbel and Zlobny advocate for Lacinka ([15], [16]), Rydel is against Lacinka, but he didn't specify the system he favors, Czalex advocates for the official national system ([17]), and you prefer BGN/PCGN.

		In the post-war USSR, the use of Belarusian Lacinka would be regarded as something deeply subversive, nationalist and anti-Soviet.
		Since Belarus became independent in 1991, however, some efforts were also made to revive Lacinka, this original script of the modern Belarusian literary language.
		Still, the revival of Lacinka lost some momentum after 1995, when the regime of Lukashenka re-introduced the Russian language as official and began effectively to expel the Belarusian language, in any form, from every area of official and public use in Belarus.

		Perhaps the largest centre of Belarusian cultural activity, in the Belarusian language, outside Belarus is in the Polish province of Bialystok, the home to a long-established Belarusian minority.
		The Belarusian language was written not only in the Cyrillic alphabet (with several unique letters), but also in Lacinka (Latin script) and Arabica (Arabic script).
		Nowadays, the Arabic script is no longer used, but many people continue to write in Lacinka, although officially only the Cyrillic script is supported.

	Can you refuse a document written in your language, but in a different alphabet? (Translation Theory and Practice)
		Lacinka has never had any official status for the modern Belarusian.
		So, you won't find any official document in Lacinka and, respectively, you can't have any official translation into Belarusian in Lacinka.
		I would not refuse, but would charge a bit extra, if it's a substantial volume of text, since it's harder to read in Lacinka (generally, Latin scripts are inferior to Cyrilic in clarity and intellegibility).

	Belarusian
		The official literary language was an old form of Belarusian written with the Cyrillic alphabet and heavily influenced by Old Church Slavonic.
		By the end of the 19th century, Belarusian, written in the Latin alphabet once again assumed the role of a literary language.
		Attempts to unify the writing system failed, and Belarusian proceeded to be written in both the Latin (Lacinka) and the Cyrillic alphabets.

		The founding father of the literary Belarusian language, Francishak Bahushevich, wrote in Lacinka (Belarusian Latin script).
		So did Kastus Kalinouski, the head of the 1863 anti-Russian uprising, in his "Muzyckaja Prauda." Nowadays, newspapers "Nasza Niva", "Studenckaja Dumka", "Krynica" (by the Saint-Petersburg Belarusian society) and the magazine "Arche" occasionally publish articles in Lacinka, according to the author's preference.
		Also, the Belarusian Tatars used a modified Arabic alphabet to write their Ketabs in Belarusian.

		One of its features is that it has incorporated both tradition of the modern-Belarusian literary writing -- the earlier one, Latin-script, and the later one, Cyrillic-script.
		Hence in the "Taraszkievica" both Lacinka and Kirylica are simply two writing systems of the same Belarusian literary standard, as is very clear from the book.
		The only change that has occured is that since 1940s "v" is used instead of "w".
