Talk:Zdob şi Zdub
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I notice that "Gypsy" was recently changed to "Roma". While, in general, this is more correct, Zdob şi Zdub consistently use Ţigan, which is equivalent to "Gypsy", not "Roma". I won't revert unilaterally, but I disagree with this decision. -- Jmabel | Talk 20:05, Feb 21, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Language name
I won't change the language name used simply because they're Moldovans. Obviously, it depends more on what they call it. "Hardcore Moldovenesc" seems to imply to me that it would be in "Moldovan" rather than "Romanian".
In addition, the presence of Moldovanisms such as "papusoi" (instead of the more Wallachian "porumb" or other words from various graiuri such as "cucuruca") seems a convincing argument to me. However, if they are fervently against "Moldovan" as a language or a name for a language, it should remain as it is. --Node 23:52, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
