ASPECTE DEMOLINGVISTICE ALE LIMBII SPANIOLE ÎN ROMĂNIA, BULGARIA ȘI REPUBLICA MOLDOVA

This book examines the size and structure of the population that knows and uses the Spanish language in Romania, Bulgaria, and the Republic of Moldova, providing an accurate account of the linguistic, migratory, and educational landscape in this part of Southeast Europe. The volume is part of the “El español en Europa” (“Spanish in Europe”) series, which is grounded in the methodological approach of linguistic demography; this approach quantifies potential Spanish-language users, explains the historical and social processes that shaped this community, and identifies the factors that either facilitate or constrain the knowledge and use of a language. This volume is a translation of the original Spanish-language edition and aims to make the research findings accessible to a broader audience in Southeast Europe, thereby helping to extend the impact of the proposed methodology and stimulate debate regarding the circulation of languages ​​and cultures.
