Makedonski

Macedonian (македонски јазик, makedonski jazik, ) is a South Slavic language, spoken as a first language by some two million people, principally in the region of Macedonia and the Macedonian diaspora. It is the official language of the Republic of Macedonia and an official minority language in parts of Albania, Romania and Serbia.

Standard Macedonian was implemented as the official language of the Socialist Republic of Macedonia in 1945 and has since developed a thriving literary tradition. Most of the codification was formalized during the same period.

Macedonian dialects form a continuum with Bulgarian dialects; together in turn they form a broader continuum with Serbo-Croatian through the transitional Torlakian dialects.

The name of the Macedonian language is a matter of political controversy in Greece as is its distinctiveness in Bulgaria., with Macedonian sometimes being regarded as a variety of Bulgarian.
