Summary
Today, the Macedonian language is developing spontaneously. It is changing in accordance with the habits of interpersonal communication, and the number of authors and poets who write original works is increasing. However, it should be emphasized that this hastened development, is under constant linguistic and ethnic pressure, imposed by the Albanians. After the proclamation of independence in September 1991, the majority of the population was Macedonian, and spoke the Macedonian language, however, they represented just over 64% of the population in the Republic. Moreover, the Macedonian language is the main (official) language in the country, liberating itself, at least legally, from former Serbian domination, and today, it strives not to be subjected by anything.
