The Language of the Moldovans Romania,

The identity of the contemporary Moldovans is explored from the perspective of debates about the languages they speak. The result is an image of an emerging nation of bilinguals that is, at once, similar to the experiences of other ex-Soviet states and uniquely complex.

Matthew H. Ciscel is assistant professor of English at Central Connecticut State University.
