Bulgarian names

[edit]

I was trying to find the villages in Bulgaria, but managed to locate only a few. Are you sure these are the names and what is the source for them? Mind, Bulgarian uses what I call proper Romanization with only the 26 letters of the Latin alphabet. Some of these names are the former ones (prior to 1878/1913) and that makes them even harder to find. Could you point me to the source, please? --Laveol T 10:40, 12 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

i will keep the bulgarian style tranliteration in mind when doing further adding. But i dont think their are anymore settlements. Also with Karamandra, in the past they may have identified as vlachs but now as sarakatsanis, even the karakacani page has the fluid nature of bieng vlach/sarakatsani on it. Their ethno-political stance may have changed since then, if you wish to remove it i will not object. Vasil kanchovs Macedonia: Ethnography and Statistics has some information regarding the Aromanian villages of pirin macedonia. Also the The Society Farsaritol has much information on Aromanians.

Nope, I don't have any particular opinion on Karamandra - just curiosity, I guess. Those settlements (with the exception of Peshtera) do not have articles, but might have one day. I'll try tracking some on Vassil Kanchov later on. --Laveol T 21:38, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Well they are just rural villages, anyway although Peshtera strictly isnt in Eastern Macedonia. good Idea. PMK1 (talk) 08:42, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Peshtera isn't in Macedonia by any standard modern definition of the region: it's clearly in Thrace, so we should consider going for "Eastern Macedonia and Rhodopes" or something totally separate. As far as I know, you could find more Aromanians in the Rhodopes than in Pirin, i.e. outside Macedonia. Here's an article about Aromanians in Dorkovo near Peshtera, please don't make any remarks about it being too distant from your native tongue to read because you're breaking my heart.

Good suggestion, i will make the change. Oh, there is always google translator if i am struggling. PMK1 (talk) 21:29, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Nice work. By the way, do you know what асансьор is? Our first ruler Asparuh was an асансьор :D TodorBozhinov 21:55, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bratsigovo, Dorkovo, Pazardzhik and Peshtera

[edit]

The new source about the Bulgarian settlements Bratsigovo, Dorkovo, Pazardzhik and Peshtera is an article in Bulgarian Magaizine. In this article is pointed that according to the information from an NGO, the number of Aromanians in Bulgaria is 2000 and they live in the settlements Sofia, Blagoevgrad, Dupnitza, Velingrad, Rakitovo, Peshtera, Bratsigovo, Pirdop, Plovdiv, Pazardzhik, Dorkovo and Bistritsa. 2000 Aromanians in 12 settlements, including the Bulgarian capital. Is it enough to accept this source as an indicative source about this list ("a list of the settlements that were either founded by Aromanians or are inhabited by a large number or strong Aromanian populations")?--Males (talk) 02:32, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Settlements

[edit]

What counts as an Aromanian settlement? I see that many in Albania or Greece may have a very small Aromanian population. Divjaka has 2% Aromanians, but it's added as an Aromanian settlement. I propose to remove all settlements where Aromanians form less than 20% of the total population.--Excine (talk) 00:56, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
