Summary/Abstract: In this paper we analyzed the variation between regional and urban Romanian features in the variety of Romanian in Dărmăneşti village. The analysis focused on the alternation o/am să merg/ voi merge. Our (poor) objective was to explore the distribution of each linguistic variant in the speech of two native women from this village. We also wanted to see if the variation is socially constrained.
