Abstract

At the end of the 19th century – the beginning of the 20th century, the process of modernizing and unifying the literary norms of the Romanian language ends, only the religious language retains an archaic character, with many reminiscences - at the phonetic and grammatical level – from the Old Romanian language. The religious textures printed at the beginning of the 19th century in Bessarabia also had to bear the influence of the original Slavonic / Russian, after which they were translated. However, the Romanian language used in several texts edited between 1907- 1913 is characterized by a unitary structure, largely conforming to the norms in force so that it almost does not differ from the language of the analogical religious texts printed over the Prut. Keywords: literary norm, religious text, archaic forms, orthographic norms, morphological structure, Slavonic influence.
