WHAT DOES VLACH MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Vlach

Vlachs

Vlach is a blanket term covering several modern Latin peoples descending from the Latinized population in the present-day territory of Romania and Moldova, as well as the southern part of the Balkan Peninsula and south and west of the Danube River. The term Vlachos comes from the German word of Celtic origin Walh, which the ancient Germans used to call Romans and, more broadly, the peoples that had been administratively and culturally incorporated into the Roman world. The medieval Slavs ‘borrowed’ the word and thus it phonetically transformed into Vlah. In that form it developed into a term used to define populations in Southeast Europe that speak variations of the Balkan-Roman language, i.e. the Neo-Latin dialects of the Balkan region. English variations of the name include Wallachians, Walla, Wlachs, Wallachs, Vlahs, Olahs or Ulahs. Groups that have historically been called Vlachs include modern-day Romanians, Aromanians, Morlachs, Megleno-Romanians and Istro-Romanians. Since the creation of the Romanian state, the term in English has mostly been used for those living outside Romania.
