I was in the tram, quite tired, going back to home. So as I was sitting, there were 2 women infront of me, talking in some eastern european language. Anyway. Suddenly, an old (curious) man who was sitting next to me asks them in english: - ''what language are you speaking right now''and they answer - ''Moldovan''- ''what kind of language is that''? he asks again - ' 'its like Russian, but Moldova is not part of Russia'' they answer Upon hearing that, I intervene and tell her - ''I don't think a Romanian would agree with you''
She was like ''uh''. She didn't except that coming haha. Anyway, the point is that this Forum has made me a professional in matters of Balkan quarrels and nationalism. I know almost every animosity in the Balkans. Darn, I should become a diplomat or something!

Red brigade, there isn't exist such a language: Moldovan...it's pure Romanian named politically by some Russians. Romanian is a latin language while Russian is a slavic one. There's no relation between them.

Red, those poor people are brain-washed.
That "moldavian" state is something like FYROM for Greece. Brainwashed people who claim a part of our history.
