Moldovan language - Simple English Wikipedia

# Moldovan language

### From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.

Moldovan (limba moldovenească) is the official language of the Republic of Moldova. It is almost the same as the Romanian language. Because the Moldavian SSR was part of the Soviet Union until 1989, they used to write their language in the Cyrillic alphabet. In 1989 Moldova became its own country and they started to use the Latin alphabet just like in Romania. But the Moldovan government officially calls the language "Moldovan" and the rules for the language (like grammar) are decided by a different University than in Romania.

In the unrecognized state of Transnistria, one of the official languages is also Moldovan, along with Russian and Ukrainian. But here it is still written with the Cyrillic alphabet.
