マケドニア語
The Institute for Macedonian language "Krste Misirkov" (, "Institut za makedonski jazik „Krste Misirkov“") is the regulatory body of the Macedonian language and is a part of Ss. Cyril and Methodius University of Skopje, North Macedonia. The institute was established in March 1953 in order to standardise the Macedonian language and to organise creative potentials in the sphere of Macedonian studies. It is also used to ensure professional training and improvement towards those teaching the language. It was then that the Act of the Ministry of Education of the Government of the then Socialist Republic of Macedonia for transforming the Department of the Macedonian Language and Literature at the Institute of Folklore into an autonomous Institute of the Macedonian Language was empowered. At first the Institute functioned as a component part of the Faculty of Philosophy, but soon it turned into a separate scholarly institution with independent financing.
