Summary/Abstract: In the reform of the educational system, the Romanian language and literature curriculum for the schools where the teaching language is Hungarian proposes a new perspective: education based on communication. Earlier differences between native and non-native speakers have not been considered; and the main goal has been offering mainly knowledge connected to literary analysis and grammar issues. Presently, the authors of the two alternative Romanian language and literature school books written for non-native speakers of Romanian in the fifth grade aim at developing communicational skills and understanding of spoken linguistic production. In the present paper, I propose an analysis of the linguistic attitude of fifth-grader learners in two elementary schools in Miercurea Ciuc (Csíkszereda) where the working language is Hungarian, with respect to the new Romanian language and literature curriculum and the introduction of the alternative Romanian school books written for non-native speakers of Romanian.
