Languages in the United States
The United States does not have an official language; nevertheless, English is the language used for legislation, regulations, executive orders, treaties, federal court rulings, and all other official pronouncements. In some states, English, Hawaiian and Spanish are official. In 2000, the census bureau printed the standard census questionnaires in six languages: English, Spanish, Korean, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Tagalog. The English-Only movement seeks to establish English as the only official language of the nation.
Languages in the United Kingdom The United Kingdom has no official language. English is the main language and the de facto official language, spoken monolingually by an estimated 95% of the UK population. |

| Divider | Macedonian is the official language of the Republic of Macedonia Language is one of the most important features of a people. As for the Macedonian people and its state are concerned, language is of extreme significance and offers confirmation of their historical continuity. Apart from being the official language in the Republic of Macedonia, Macedonian is spoken and cherished in many European countries, the United States, Canada and Australia, wherever Macedonians live. It is also the mother tongue and a language of everyday communication in those parts of the Balkan states populated by ethnic Macedonians , like Aegean in north Greece, Pirian in southwestern Bulgaria, Mala Prespa and Golo Brdo in southeastern Albania and in Serbia. |
| Divider | There are a number of institutions in the Republic of Macedonia where the Macedonian Language has been studied. Macedonian is taught as a subject in several university centres in the world, at the appropriate faculties in Moscow, Voronyezh, Minsk, Ivanovo, Warsaw, Krakow, Katowice, Lodz, Krajova, Prague, Vienna, Halle, Lund, Paris, Naples, Amsterdam, Utrecht, Bradford, Portland, Budapest, Istanbul and Toronto. Munich, Regensburg, Zurich, Cologne, Cannes, Brno, Bucharest, Harvard, Chicago, New York, Nanking, Klagenfurt, Trieste, Bratislava, St. Petersburg, Kansas, Syracuse, Ohio, Sidney and Canberra. Macedonian is being taught in all universities of the former Yugoslavia. Findings from the study of the Macedonian language have been published in specialized editions. A large number of scholarly papers from the field of Macedonian studies have been published by Macedonian and foreign authors. There are thirty-one sounds in the Macedonian language. In the Macedonian Cyrillic alphabet, there is one symbol for each sound, that is, there are as many letters as sounds (31), making it completely phonetic. Spelling in Macedonian does not present any difficulties since there is one symbol for each sound. Thus, Macedonian is surely one of the easiest languages to learn to read and write. |
| StormAngel | quote:Sakas da kazes deka vo Makedonija ne treba da ima oficijalen jazik? |
| Divider | Zosto da ne. Ne bi imalo potreba da imame oficijalen jazik koga bi bile na isto ekenomsko-politicko nivo so UK i SAD. BTW, nie si ja znaeme svojata istorija, tradicija, kultura i poteklo. Bidejki sme pkruzeni od sekakvi neprijateli (vnatresni i nadvoresni) jazikot go koristime kako uste edno sredstvo za bitka protiv niv. Zamisli nasite politicari da se nekorumpirani (utopija), narodot samosvesen i voinstven, za prasanja koi ne zasegaat i toa mnogu (povtorno utopija), zamisli Makedonija da ima nafta kako Kuvajt i da ne zavisime od donacii i krediti. Ke ima li potreba? Ne. Bidejki nema da ni e griza koj sto misli, a onie, albancite, ke molcat kako popcinja. Za zal, toa e se utopija, zatoa ke moram da recam:Ima. Sega ima, itekako ima. |

| Divider | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- World Map - Map of Europe - Bulgaria -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bulgarian is the official language in Bulgaria and it is spoken by 8.5 million people. Bulgarian has two main dialects. The eastern dialect is used as the literary language. Bulgaria was ruled under the Ottoman Empire for 500 years until 1878. Bulgarian survived in the countryside while the language was heavily influenced by the Turks, Macedonians, and Romanies (Gypsies) in the cities. The language situation in Bulgaria is rather complicated. About one million people in Bulgaria speak Turkish. At present, the Macedonians are spread out over Yugoslavia, Greece, and Bulgaria. About 250,000 Macedonians live in Bulgaria, and speak Macedonian. It is used only as a spoken language. It is similar to Bulgarian. The language of the Romanies is called Romani, and is used only as a spoken language. There are large amounts of loanwords in Bulgarian especially from Turkish and Greek. People try to avoid using them when writing, but they survive in the spoken language. The vocabulary is also influenced by Russian. |
| StormAngel | Divider, Poenta? |
| Divider | Go potvrduvam praviloto. Nekade, kade jazikot ne e oficijalen, tuku vo sluzbena upotreba, tie drzavi se visoko razvieni. Od druga strana pak, vo mnogu od zemjite kade sto jazikot e oficijalen i edna od komponentite koja ja obelezuva drzavnosta, tie drzavi, se nerazvieni. Mislam! |
| OooOo | Nerazvieni kako Canada, Germanija, Shvajcarija, Francija, Japan itn? |
| Divider | Dobre de, aman, ima i takvi, ama kaj ne stoi kako edna od najglavnite tocki: jazikot e ona sto ne odbelezuva ako nacija itn. Ili moze, rekov, mislam, ne znaci deka sum potpolno vo pravo. Inaku vo Svajcarija (4) i Kanaca(2) ima poveke oficijalni jazici. Japonija e zemjata na izgresonceto, pogolemi rasisti ni bilo ni ke bide, a Germanija, site znaeme za nivnoto slavno: Deutschland uber ales!! Sepak, se slozuvam, komentarot mi bese za prethodnite postovi, kade sto se naveduvaat zemj koisto nemaat oficijalen jazik, a se epten razvieni, UK bila edna od najgolemite imperii i seuste nejzinata birokratija i nacin na vodenje na drzavna administracioja vladee so svetot, a SAD vo momentov se svetskiot policaec i najbogata drzava na svetot. |
