Thank you, Romania!

Food bought in the supermarket comes packaged with instructions and ingrediences written in cyrillic (Ukrainian and/or Russian). The translations for the neighboring countries are of no big help either: Hungarian, Slovak, Tatchik, etc. are not among the languages we master. But luckily, Romania is not far away. And as we experience regularly, Romanian is a VERY FAMILIAR language, that we don't speak. But we can understand it very easily on food-packaging. We hadn't expected this easy way out! And we are therefore often very thankful for the existence of the latin language Romanian!
