In the literary Belarusian language, an explosive sound /[[Voiced velar plosive|g]]/ (and its soft equivalent /[[Voiced velar plosive|g]]ʲ/) pronounced in Belarusian sound combinations [<nowiki/>[[Voiced alveolar fricative|z̪]][[Voiced velar plosive|g]]], [<nowiki/>[[Voiced alveolar affricate|d͡z̞]][[Voiced velar plosive|g]]], [<nowiki/>[[Voiced postalveolar affricate|d͡ʐ]][[Voiced velar plosive|g]]]: ''во[з'''ґ''']ры'', ''ма[з'''ґ’''']і'', ''ро[з'''ґ’''']і'', ''абры[з'''ґ''']лы'', ''бра[з'''ґ''']аць'', ''пляву[з'''ґ''']аць'', ''вэ[дз'''ґ''']аць'', ''[дж'''ґ''']аць'' and in a number of borrowed words: ''['''ґ''']анак'', ''['''ґ''']арсэт'', ''['''ґ''']валт'', ''['''ґ''']зымс'', ''['''ґ''']онта'', ''['''ґ''']узік'', ''а['''ґ''']рэст'', ''['''ґ’''']ер['''ґ’''']етаць'', ''цу['''ґ''']лі'', ''шва['''ґ’''']ер'' etc. This marked the beginning of the restoration in the twentieth century of the use of the letter ґ, which was used in the Old Belarusian language.

In proper names with a non-Slavic lexical basis, explosive /[[Voiced velar plosive|g]]/ is traditionally pronounced in Belarusian as fricative /[[Voiced velar fricative|ɣ]]/; preservation of /[[Voiced velar plosive|g]]/ in pronunciation does not qualify as a violation of the orthoepic norm: ''['''Г''']арыбальдзі'' and ''['''Ґ''']арыбальдзі'', ''['''Г''']рэнляндыя'' and ''['''Ґ''']рэнляндыя'', ''['''Г’''']ётэ'' and ''['''Ґ’''']ётэ'', ''['''Г’''']ібральтар'' and ''['''Ґ’''']ібральтар''.

The sound [<nowiki/>[[Voiced velar plosive|g]]] in Belarusian also exists in place of etymological [<nowiki/>[[Voiced velar plosive|k]]] before voiced consonants, as a result of assimilation. This assimilation is not reflected in writing, so the letter '''к''' is used in this case: ''анэ'''к'''дот, ва'''к'''зал, па'''к'''гаўз, э'''к'''замэн, э'''к'''сгумацыя''.
