Narkamauka
Narkamaŭka (Belarusian: наркамаўка, narkamaŭka) is a colloquial name for the reformed Belarusian grammar. Evolved from the Belarusian narkam (наркам), abbreviated early Soviet name for the ministry, narodnɨ kamisar (народны камісар). Narkamauka is the simplified version of the Belarusian language's orthography, with some scholars claiming that it turned out the language to become closer to Russian during Soviet era in Belarus.[1]
The name was coined around the end of the 1980s or the beginning of the 1990s by the Belarusian linguist Vincuk Viačorka.[2]
