- Romanian (obsolete spellings Rumanian, Roumanian ; autonym: limba română , "the Romanian language", or românește, lit. "in Romanian") is an East Romance language spoken by approximately 24–26 million people [1] [2] as a native language, primarily in Romania and Moldova, and by another 4 million people as a second language.[3] It has official status in Romania and the Republic of Moldova. In addition, it is also one of the official languages of the European Union. Romanian is a part of the Balkan-Romance group that evolved from several dialects of Vulgar Latin separated from the Western Romance during the 5th–8th centuries. [4] To distinguish it within that group in comparative linguistics it is called Daco-Romanian as opposed to its closest relatives, Aromanian, Megleno-Romanian, and Istro-Romanian. Romanian is also known as Moldovan in Moldova, although the Constitutional Court ruled in 2013 that "the official language of the republic is Romanian".[nb 1]
Furthermore, numerous immigrant Romanian speakers are also scattered across many other regions and countries worldwide, most notably Italy, the Iberian peninsula (both in Spain and Portugal), the German-speaking countries (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), the British archipelago (both in the United Kingdom as well as in Ireland), Scandinavia (Denmark, Norway, and Sweden), North America (most notably in the United States but also in Canada), or Oceania (mainly Australia and New Zealand).
