both in the textbook (page 5), and in the printing instructions.

Uladzimir Katkouski's, Belarusian Phrasebook on the Pravapis.org Web site. Modeled on the Berlitz style of phrasebook. Although incomplete--first 20 pages thus far (strong hint:
Please encourage someone to take over Mr. Katkouski's work!), it is an
excellent resource, and complements the more traditional, grammar-based
language learning reference, noted above.
S.Alaksandrau's and H.Mycyk's: Базавы курс беларускае мовы: Найлепшы сучасны падручнік для самастойнага навучаньня беларускай мове (Basic Course of Belarusian Language: The Best Modern Manual for Mastering Belarusian)
Note: Intended for students who already know Russian or some Belarusian (not intended for those limited to English - unless you're willing to try total immersion!)
Chris Marchant's, Fundamentals of Modern Belarusian on the www.vitba.org Web site;
110 pages. Created by Chris Marchant because he couldn't find any
Belarusian language materials in English that satisfied his
requirements. Available in RTF and PDF through the GNU public license. (New information, January, 2004.)
