August 31

Romanian Language Day, observed on August 31 in Romania and Moldova, celebrates the cultural significance of the Romanian language. Established by UNESCO in 2013, the day fosters appreciation for linguistic heritage through conferences, poetry readings, and literary fairs. Schools and universities host workshops on grammar and literature, while public institutions organize exhibitions showcasing historic manuscripts and modern works. Media outlets broadcast programs highlighting regional dialects and the evolution of the language. The observance encourages cross-border cultural cooperation and raises awareness of language preservation. By honoring linguistic traditions, it reinforces national identity and shared history.
