Romanians, do you consider Aromanians to be Romanians?

[SKYNET]

Absolutely yes.

[Zmey Gorynych]

In a very wide acceptance yes, but they are aromanians first and foremost.

[00danieleinad00]

Yes! DA!!!

Aromanians are Vlachs, like Romanians, but Vlach is just a linguistic group.
Aromanians are most likely Latinized Thracians, while Romanians are Latinized Dacians.
Thracians and Dacians were probably related, but nonetheless distinct.

Also linguistically, Romanians and Aromanians separated 1000 years ago, so Aromanian is not immediately understandable to Romanians.
So all in all, no, I do not think of Aromanians as Romanians, but I do think we are related people.

i do consider them to be the same people although we split long time ago. romanians also don't have the same origins. they are mixed and the genetic tests show that. even without a genetic test u can see how diverse romanians are just by looking at them.
