The national language is Romanian, but many of the people still speak Hungarian, German and Ukrainian. The records of Romania have been kept in Romanian, Hungarian, German, Latin, Ruthenian (Ukrainian), Russian, Turkish, Greek, and Old Church Slavonic; Jewish Records are often written in Yiddish. Romanian was often written in the Cyrillic alphabet before 1863 when the Roman alphabet was adopted. (Some Romanian writers used the cyrillic alphabet as late as the 1920s.) For more information about Romanian Cyrillic see the article in Wikipedia, Romanian Cyrillic Alphabet . Modern Romanian writing with its present system of diacritic marks took several years to develop.
