Beside the Romanic origin of language, the etymology borrowed several influences from Slavic, Greek, Turkic, Hungarian, Germanic and other languages. Traditionally divided into four dialects, Romanian language includes more regional varieties, some of the idioms being spoken only outside Romania. Linguistic identity not corresponding always with the ethnic one, although there can be found several identifications of the Romanian-speaking communities. The main factor which contributes to the preservation of the Romanian language is the access to educational and cultural rights, which allow developing the ethno-linguistic consciousness.
