The interest of Albrecht Goštautas in Roman pedigrees is easy to understand: he seems to have descended (on his mother's side) from a Byzantine niece of Zoe Palaiologina and, by this measure, was probably the heir to the ephemeral crown of the Eastern Roman Empire. -- Ghirla -трёп- 22:59, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
Does somebody really define the language of the Lithuanian Chronicles as Church Slavonic? It is awkward indeed; the written language of the period is surely influenced by Church Slavonic to some extent, but its main basis is the colloquial language. It is enough to mention that it is full of Polish borrowings, and some manuscripts (notably that of Rachynski) follow the local phonetical peculiarities in writing. 136.206.1.49 ( talk) 10:44, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
