Usage notes
The Taraškievica spelling is faithful to phonetics and the original word без may transform accordingly to reflect this:
- The letter "е" changes to "я" if the adjacent next word starts from a stressed syllable.
- The soft sign "ь" may be appended to indicate the assimilating palatalization if the adjacent next word starts from a 'soft' (palatalized) consonant or a palatalizing vowel ("і", "е", "я", "ю" or "ё").
