Thanks.



*also the leaf structure; 405612 (Prilep) is wavy, 225977 (Prilep No.2) not. If Maks find the seeds, we should compare them well.

I'm still waiting on replay(they only redirect me on other address). I will let you as soon as I get information.

Sorry for that. I just wont you to see this alphabet. Many years ago I even know how to read this. I still can with effort. But I contact them in croatian language, cause Macedonian I can only understand a little.
It is not much written on that page, but you have e-mail if you want to contact them. I hope we get the right seeds.

Actually both Bulgarians and Greeks object to the use of "Macedonian" as a language because of their "different" political wievs. But the current academic consensus is that Macedonian is an autonomous language within the South Slavic dialect continuum.

Philip and Alexander of Macedon started out in what is presently Bulgaria, and swept through the Greek states, initiating the great Hellenistic expansion of Greek culture (with the Greek language) throughout the Mediterranean. What is currently claimed as Macedonia was just a wild backwater.

I guess the Macedonian language has many western (Latinate and modern) importations of words. If I transliterate the Cyrillic as though it were Russian, most of the Macedonian is still incomprehensible, but some of it is readable.

Topic is going a little off topic but as you know most of the languages have importation words. There's no doubt about the classification of the Macedonian language according to linguistics, it's a south Slavic not Hellenic.

I want to write some same words you wrote above in Russian here in latin script.

English / Russian : history / istoriya ; strategy / strategiya ; structure / struktura ; career / kariera ; fermentation / fermentachiya ; manipulation / manipulachiya

"Tutun" (tütün) is a Turkish word which means tobacco, a common word in Slav countries.
"Odgovornost" is a Slovenian word which means responsibility.

Great photo. It looks promising: 0.5 grams (a lot of seeds--~1000 to 2000), and certified seed material from a national institute. Bravo! If that actually says 5 grams--I can't tell--then it's a boat load.

I'm going on the post office now to send two sorts of Prilep to America. Yes it's here and I have already put it on the soil and water it.
