Bosphorian (Bozvörskje) also known as , is an Eastern Romance language, similar to Romanian, or a dialect of the Romanian language spoken in Southeastern Europe. Its speakers are called Bosphorians or Vlachs (a broader term and an exonym in widespread use to define Romance communities in the Balkans).

Bosphorian shares many features with modern Romanian, including similar morphology and syntax, as well as a large common vocabulary inherited from Latin. An important source of dissimilarity between Romanian and Bosphorian is the adstratum languages (external influences); whereas Romanian has been influenced to a greater extent by the Slavic languages and Aromanian has been more influenced by Greek, Bosphorian has been influenced by the Turkic language with which it has been in close contact throughout its history.
