The day of 27 august was choosed to coincide with 27

republic).At the meeting, it was requested to declare the Romanian language as
a state language in the SSR, as well as the transition to the Latin spelling.
Under the impulse of the Great National Assembly, in two

Street 31 August 1989 from Chișinău
In city Chisinău it is a street named 31 August 1989 in
memory of August 31, 1989, date which Republic of Moldova the Romanian language
was made official. This event was preceded by Great Nacional Assemblea from
Chișinău on 27 August, 1989. The
participants in the Assembly adopted the text of an Appeal to session of the
Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Moldova,what was to be
debated the issue of official language. The high popular forum demanded the
constitution in the Constitution „of the status of official language and
language of interethnic communication in the territory of R.S.S.M. for Moldovan
language based on Latin spelling...” As a result, The Supreme Soviet adopted the
package of laws regarding the state language in R.S.S.M., article 70 of the
Constitution of R.S.S.M. Was supplemented with the following words: „The state
language of R.S.S. Moldovan is the Moldovan language. The state language is
used in the political, economic, social and cultural life and operates on the
basis of Latin spelling ”.
Actually, we speak Romanian language. Moldovan language
was the name given to the Romanian language in Soviet Moldova, a name used
after the proclamation of independence in Article 13, paragraph 1 of the
Constitution of the Republic of Moldova, in the Filipino and „Moldovan” circles
wishing to create a local „national consciousness”. specific to Romanians from
the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine, introducing a linguistic, ethnic and
socially artificial split among Romanians, respectively among Moldovan
Romanians, between those in Romania (Western Moldova) and those in the current
CIS (successor to the Soviet Union).
Currently, at the official level, although the „Moldovan
language” gloton is preserved in Article 13 of the Constitution of the
Republic of Moldova, the Constitutional Court considered in 2013 that this
article has a lower legal value than the Declaration of Independence, and that
by consequently the official language of the Republic, as an independent state,
is the „Romanian language”, the adjective „Moldovan” being an alternative name
without obligation to use.
Now, on the street 31 August 1989 is Ministry of Foreigh
Affair, Ministry of Justice, The Trade Unions House, UNDP representation,
UNICEF representation, National Library, Writers' Union, National Museum of
Fine Arts, National Museum of History of Moldova, study blocks of the State
University of Arts, swimming pool of the National Institute of Physical Education
