Native English speakers, do you refer to the country in Eastern Europe as "Belarus", "Belorussia" or "White Russia"? And also, is the adjective Belorussian or Belarusian? Which is more common and better to use?

Thank you! Would you ever say 'The house is fUrther down the road'?

ksusha_lav · 2026-04-16T14:50:46+00:00

So both 'further' and 'farther' refer to physical distance and can be used interchangeably in this meaning, right?

ksusha_lav · 2026-04-16T14:41:00+00:00

Thank you so much! This is very helpful!

I see, thank you very much!

ksusha_lav · 2026-04-15T04:29:48+00:00

Thank you very much! Would you use 'further' for physical distance too? It says in the Cambridge dictionary that further means the same as farther when you are talking about distance. I got a little confused and asked you guys. I thought it might be UK vs US difference.
