Usage notes
It is debatable whether Belarusian has also formed a productive suffix be -і́раваць cognate to ru -и́ровать. Many Russian verbs which use ru -и́ровать display be -аваць in their Belarusian cognates; compare ru вакцини́ровать and be вакцынава́ць to vaccinate. In many cases, Belarusian words ending in be -і́раваць also simply happen to derive from the same French and/or German sources that end with fr -ir (French) or de -ieren (German).
