When did the Romanian language develop?

The Romanian language developed from the Latin spoken by the soldiers and colonists who settled in the territory of modern-day Romania in the 2nd century AD. Over time, the language evolved and was influenced by various other languages, including Old Church Slavonic, Hungarian, Turkish, and German. The earliest written records of Romanian date back to the 16th century, but it wasn't until the 19th century that the language started to develop a standardized form. Today, Romanian is the official language of Romania and is also spoken in Moldova and parts of Serbia and Ukraine.
