Re: Moldovan medal?
I forgot to add that during the Soviet Union in order to loosen the Moldovan linguistic, cultural ties to Romania Greg mentions above, Soviet linguists "invented" the "Moldovan" language by basically writing Moldovan in cyrillic. The Soviets used this tactic with other republics' languages too.
This aberration has resulted in people today trying to claim Moldovan is an independent language. This practice fell out of use in the 80's or perhaps a decade earlier, but you still see it occasionally in Moldova and more particularly in Transnistria/Pridnestrovia. I must admit it's rather disconcerting to expect to read Russian and get a "Romanian" surprise. |
