Usage notes
This neutral term is used more often instead of (term) or (term), acknowledging that the Belarusian, Russian, and Ukrainian people share the heritage of Rus. With this innovation, it is sometimes unclear how to replace the adjective (term) in the same context. Alternatives include using the attributive noun, as in “the Rus princes”, or rewriting to use “of Rus”. The nonstandard adjective (Rusian) is seen very rarely.Synonyms
