Subject: cross the country geogr. Belarus is a land-locked country and borders on Russia in the north and east, the Ukraine in the south, Poland in the west, Latvia and Lithuania in north-west and south of Europe cross the country.Это из контрольной для заочников. Глядя на карту, смущает "Lithuania in north-west and south of Europe cross the country". Что за географическая казуистика? |

The sentence is not correct. Belarus is a land-locked country that is bordered by Russia on the north and east, by Ukraine on the south, by Poland on the west, and by Latvia and Lithuania on the north-west. I do not know the meaning of "and south of Europe cross the country". |

kwatts59: а чем, Вам, простите, не угодила конструкция to border on Вполне обычная, нормальная, правильная, и нет необходимости заменять ее чем-то иным Вот смотрите http://www.belarus.org.uk/history.html |
| и все же мне всегда казалось, что не "on the north", а "in the north" |
