Examples

“Вѣ́дамо, за даўнѣ́йшые ча́сы чаґу́нки ещэ́ не было́, да й шашэ́й ещэ́ не раби́ли;”

It's known that, in earlier times, there were still no railways, and highways weren't built either;

“Бо тая шаша – яна толькі на тваёй карце шаша. Ім там у гугле здаецца, што калі на здымку са спадарожніка ў дарогі ёсць пачатак і канец, значыць, яна для легкавікоў. А насамрэч гэта выезджаны трактарамі і грузавікамі пясок на просецы.”

Because that so-called highway is only a highway on your map. They, at Google, think that if a satellite image shows that a road starts and ends somewhere, then it's suitable for cars. But in reality it's just sand on a forest lane, beaten down by tractors and trucks.
