Current East Slavic languages: Belarusian, Russian, Ukrainian and other related dialects.
Linguists consider each of these three languages to be separate languages in their own right. The languages are somewhat similar to one another, with transitional dialects in border regions.
All these languages use the Cyrillic alphabet, but with particular modifications.
In general, each of the three Eastern Slavic languages developed separately from a common East Slavic root language. When this root language became separated from the ancient Slavic tongue common to all Slavs is difficult to ascertain ( 6th– 11th century). The theorized divergence of Eastern Slavic from the early common Slavic and the early patterns of local Eastern Slavic evolution into multiple languages is obscured by a widely present historical artifact: the use of Old Church Slavonic (essentially Old Bulgarian, from the South Slavic group of languages) as the language of learning and written communication among the Eastern Slavs after the conversion of the first Eastern Slavic State of Kievan Rus' to Christianity in the 10th century.
Nonetheless, the first divergence among the Eastern Slavic languages is evident during the 12th century11th century 12th century 13th century other centuries) As a means of recording the passage of time, the 12th century was that century which lasted from 1101 to 1200.

The language of the Slavic population in the north/northeast part of Rus' diverged from the language of the south/southwest part of Rus'.

This blending of native East Slavic elements with Old Church Slavonic gave birth to the early Russian language, no later than the 12th century11th century 12th century 13th century other centuries) As a means of recording the passage of time, the 12th century was that century which lasted from 1101 to 1200.

The Slavs of southern and south-western Rus' (the regions of Kiev, HalychHalych Halicz in Polish, in Ukrainian or Russian [pronounced Halych and Galich ) was a town in present-day Galicia. It was founded in 898. It remained its capital until early 14th century, when it was moved to L'viv. Today Halych is a small rayon center o, and Polotsk, et al) did not intermingle with Finno-Ugric populations, and developed more organically from the East Slavic root language into the Middle Rusian or Old Ruthenian languageThe Old Ruthenian language (also known as Old Russian language and Late Old East Slavic is the name for a language spoken between 10th and 16th century in large part of the Central and Eastern Europe. It was a predecessor of most modern Eastern Slavic lan, a forerunner of the modern Ukrainian and Belarusian languages. The speakers of the Early Russian language referred to this language in the 14th13th century 14th century 15th century more centuries) As a means of recording the passage of time, the 14th century was that century which lasted from 1301 to 1400.

Events Renaissance affects philosophy, science and art. The New Monarchs come to power i as the "Lithuanian dialect." The divergence of East Slavic into separate northern and southern languages is perhaps best evidenced by the epic, The Tale of Igor's Campaign. This linguistic divergence is confirmed by the need for translators during the mid-seventeenth-century negotiations for the Treaty of Pereyaslav, between Bohdan Khmelnytsky, (Bogdan Chmielnicki), ruler of Rus'-Ukraine and the state of Moscow (Russia), which in the eighteenth century came to be called the Russian Empire.
The Old Ruthenian language perdured in Ukraine and Belarus after the Rus' period, through the time of the separate political states of Halych and Volynia, continuing through the successor state of Rus', Halych-Volynia, into the eras of Lithuania (Belarus, generally) and Poland (Ukraine, generally). Notably, the local Belarusian variant of this language served as the lingua franca and language of governance for the nation of Lithuania. During the time of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, this Ruthenian/Rusian language began to diverge into separate Ukrainian and Belarusian languages (circa 1600– 1760).
Thus, by 1800, the historic Eastern Slavic language had evolved into three modern languages.
