Zborci Association to host 'Word Creation of the Year 2026' in Skopje

The Zborci Association is organizing the 'Word Creation of the Year 2026' event, a celebration dedicated to the Macedonian language, literature, and music. The event is scheduled for September 12 at the Goce Delchev Student Dormitory courtyard in Skopje, starting at 19:00.

This year, the association received 512 candidate word submissions, an outcome organizers described as a significant success. The initiative aims to encourage linguistic creativity and promote words that can naturally integrate into everyday speech, potentially serving as domestic alternatives to internationalisms.

The program includes a discussion on 'ozboruvanje' (chattering) featuring Kalia Dimitrova, Rumena Buzharovska, and Nikola Gelevski, moderated by Viktor Buchkovski. A musical lineup will follow, featuring various artists and generations, including the Women's Youth Choir at MKC, Lidia Kochovska, Jorgush, Vec Vais Vers, and others.
