Macedonian Language
Macedonian (; , , ) is an Eastern South Slavic language. It is part of the Indo-European language family, and is one of the Slavic languages, which are part of a larger Balto-Slavic branch. Spoken as a first language by around two million people, it serves as the official language of North Macedonia. Most speakers can be found in the country and its diaspora, with a smaller number of speakers throughout the transnational region of Macedonia. Macedonian is also a recognized minority language in parts of Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Romania, and Serbia and it is spoken by emigrant communities predominantly in Australia, Canada and the United States. Macedonian developed out of the western dialects of the East South Slavic dialect continuum, whose earliest recorded form is Old Church Slavonic. During much of its history, this dialect continuum was called "Bulgarian", although in the 19th century, its western dialects came to be known separately as "Macedonian". Stan ...

Mali Vlaj
Mali Vlaj ( mk, Мали Влај) is a village in the municipality of Struga, North Macedonia. Name The toponym is first recorded as a plural in the name ''Frougovi Vlasi''. The form ''Vlaj'' is an old accusative occurring as a plural in ''Vlahy''> ''Vlahi''> ''Vlai''> ''Vlaj'' and these forms stemmed from ''Vla(s)hci'' meaning residents from the village ''Vlas(c)i''. The ''c'' sound in Vlahci was assimilated over time becoming ''Vlaj'' and the toponym is related to Vlachs. With the loss of the grammatical case in Macedonian, the toponym ''Vlaj'' was no longer understood in the plural, instead in the singular. The adjective ''Мали/Mali'' meaning "small" contained in the names of some villages is usually used if there is an opposition to a larger settlement with the word ''Голем/Golem'' meaning "big" or in toponyms without an additive. Nearby there is no appropriate toponym with the adjective "large" in modern times, yet it is possible that this settlement is in opposit ...
