The re-latinization of Romanian, also known as re-romanization of Romanian, is a process during the development of the Romanian language aimed at the strengthening of its Romance character. The process, which later became known as "re-latinization" (or "re-romanization") of Romanian, was initiated by Greek Catholic clerics in Transylvania starting in the 18th century. Figures associated with this trend include Samuil Micu-Klein, Gheorghe Șincai and Petru Maior of the Transylvanian School. It reached its peak in Wallachia in the early 19th century, when Ion Heliade Rădulescu introduced large numbers of Italian neologisms. Subsequently, literary figures at Iași, in Moldavia, began borrowing from French. During this period, the Romanian adopted a Latin-based alphabet to replace Cyrillic script and new terms of French, Latin or Italian origin were borrowed to replace Slavic loanwords.
The term "re-latinization" was introduced by Alexandru Graur in 1930; it was subsequently taken up by Ovid Densusianu and other linguists. Sextil Pușcariu preferred “re-romanization”, first using the phrase in 1931. Alexandru Niculescu (1978) opted for “Romance westernization”, while Vasile D. Țâra (1982) suggested “the Latin-Romance direction in the modernization of the Romanian literary language”.
