    Default Moldavian Language Videos

    So, first one. What a better way to begin, but with a moldovan speaking korean. Very good moldavian language in this case. Almost perfect, but with some unfortunate romanian barbarisms as for example Romanian ulei instead of moldovan oloi. This is the result of the recent fenomenon of moldovans buying cooking oil from the shops where the labels unfortunately are written in walachian as ulei instead of oloi.

    This is just an example of Romanian with Moldovan accent.

    I understand it with no difficulty.

    Of course it is mutually intelligible. That doesn't make it wallachian or romanian.

    It's not just mutually intelligible, it's one and the same, save for the accent.

    anyway I bet this thread will only have videos of retirees, since the younger generations (40 yo and younger) speaks Romanian almost without any accent.

    This time, one from west of Prut, from romanian Bukovina, that used to be a part of Moldova till 1774. Although the people there lost completely any trace of moldavian identity, the region is still a treasure of old moldavian culture. The language in this video is like transplanted from the writings of Neculce or Cantemir. For example, Dimitrie Cantemir in his chapter dedicated to the moldavian language, in his book Descriptio Moldaviae, compared it with the romanian language and gave example giur in moldavian compared to jur in romanian.

    ”muntenii și ardelenii, au tot o limbă cu moldovenii, numai cât le este vorba puțin mai groasă, precum moldovanul - giur, românul - jur”.

    This was the same for gioc versus joc, giudeț vs județ etc. In this video we an hear it live, the language of Cantemir.

    The reason why Bucovina has a stronger Slavic accent is because Romanians had only a majority minority in the area 100 years ago. Only in Southern Bukovina Romanians were more than half of the population.

    You're taking again an example of a strongly accented dialect as the so called "Moldovan language". The language spoken in Bucovina sounded slightly different solely because almost half of the speakers were not native.

    It is not the sound. It is the words. copchilărie vs copilărie (romanian), diparti vs departe, mari vs mare, maicuță vs măicuță. nieu vs meu, dzî vs zi, gioucu vs jocul, giucau vs jucau. Almost each and every word is different.
