Roman's native language
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8b/Seal_of_1392._Roman_I_of_Moldavia.jpg/220px-Seal_of_1392._Roman_I_of_Moldavia.jpg)
Seal with the legend in the Ruthenian language: «+ ПЄЧАТЬ ІѠ (Божьей милостью) РОМАН ВОЄВОДА ЗЕМЛѢ МОЛДАЛЬВЬСКОІ». So he called himself and considered Ruthenian to be his native language. So his name should be written in this native language for him.--Лобачев Владимир (talk) 14:49, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
- That he used "Ruthenian" doesn't mean that he identified himself as such. By the way, what language is exactly "Ruthenian"? Old Ukrainian? I have never seen it being used in other Wikipedia articles. Super Ψ Dro 21:52, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
- Ruthenian language it is one of the official languages of the Moldavian principality. Here are the sources (in Russian):
- Камбур Дмитрий Представительство русского населения Молдавии в Боярском совете при Петре Рареше (1527-1538, 1541-1546 гг.)
- Суляк С. Г. Русский язык в Молдавии // Русин, 2010 --Лобачев Владимир (talk) 12:01, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
- Ok, I guess it can be added, but the modern Moldovan language is unrelated to Roman I. I will accept only in the condition that his name in Moldovan is removed from Wikidata. There's no consensus for keeping it, every single other page about a Moldavian prince uses Romanian names. Super Ψ Dro 12:14, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
