Good thing they brought back the bust of Emanuil Gavriliță in front of the Court, where he worked. I liked that there were also the children from "Vasile Alecsandri" and "Elena Alistar" who recited poems about the language. I hope that now he stays quietly in his place, not like before.

Good thing they brought him back to the Court, where he worked. I also liked the council of priests from the Metropolis of Bessarabia that sanctified him, as if that's how it should be. The children from "Vasile Alecsandri" and "Elena Alistar" recited beautifully, it can be seen that they care about the language.

Bine că au pus bustul lui Gavriliță exact în fața Judecătoriei, acolo unde a muncit atâția ani. Mi-a atras atenția că l-au sfințit preoții de la Mitropolia Basarabiei, mi se adorne firesc. Copiii of the „Elena Alistar” in the recitat frumos, se vede că le pasă de istorie.
