word for "day" in polish is incorrect, it should be 'dzień' instead of 'dzien' Szmomsz (talk) 09:42, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Small edit request

The Slovene word for 'day' is 'dan' instead of 'den'. Cheers! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zziga (talkcontribs) 11:49, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

Thanks, corrected the table. Jeppiz (talk) 13:01, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

Fundamental issue

Why "Macedonian" but not "North Macedonian" language? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.157.176.194 (talkcontribs)

Because that's its name. Simple as that. Fut.Perf. 13:30, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

The country's name is North Macedonia, so how the language's name should be? --37.157.176.194 (talk) 15:21, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

It's not our job to determine what its name should be. We simply observe what its name is. We do that by looking at what reliable sources call it. Fut.Perf. 20:37, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

Inaccurate map

I have literally been to those regions of Greece where "Macedonian" is supposedly Majority language and not one person speaks it. Maybe there are some minority speakers but even then I am not entirely sure. All in all the map is highly inaccurate, in par with more and more articles that evidently promote one or another form of North Macedonian revisionism.
