Lexical similarities between Romance languages.

Regional and archaic words are also included in the percentage.

Between French and Italian many words are similar in how they are written but pronounced differently and not always understandable between them.

Words you should know when visiting Romania

Romanians accept that not a lot of people speak their language, so if you start using some Romanian words, we will get very excited. Mulțumesc – Thank you.Knowing this will make you an instant favorite. Romanians appreciate politeness, and a well-placed mulțumesc might even get you a smile or some extra help. You can say mersi similar to the french word merci if you have difficulty saying the…

A Decade Later

10 years ago I created this blog and then (like the vast majority of my 'projects') promptly forgot about it. Since then, I can happily report that I get up early every day (I have 2 lovely, early-bird children), my bedroom remains tidy (thanks to the herculean effort from my wife to break my bad habits) and I did the extra study and am now established in my career in education.

I actually forgot that tumblr was a thing and only came back to this account when I found a blog for language learning... that's my latest project. Needless to say, in the last 10 years I've attempted and failed multiple languages, but this time I'm changing it up (I might even use this blog as a diary for it... or not, let's be honest). I'm using the fluent forever technique to learn Romanian. 625 Flashcards to make and learn using Anki in the only romance language I haven't attempted before. Wish me luck!

okay so I started pondering over a certain detail lately with Nosferatu 2024 - whether Orlok is Hungarian or Romanian. I found this Den of Geeks piece for the movie where Bill himself said Orlok could be other one. (quote in the scan below)

"There's no historically accurate accent of what that would sound like anymore. He could possibly be Hungarian or he could be Romanian."

so now my question is, could he be both? have heritage on both sides? I know in the 16th century Transylvania was part of/controlled by Hungary, and from what I've read there's a lot of lingering tension between Hungarians and Romanians, but I am still learning more detailed history for that particular period/area. Eggers and co. have referred to Orlok or his look/style as Romanian, Hungarian and also just Transylvanian (iirc).

the Dacian language indicates (imo) that he seems to have Romanian heritage through at least one parent but that doesn't necessarily have to be the case. there's always the chance he was simply a Hungarian nobleman who went down the rabbit hole of the Daco-Romanian based traditions and folklore and magic/religion. even being ethnically Romanian doesn't mean he'd known Dacian if it was a dead language by then.

(my personal headcanon for the Dacian is, during his dive into the occult, he learned the language, and now he strictly uses it because it's a dead language - I'm sorry but Orlok is absolutely that guy who'd speak the dead language nobody else knows because it proves how learned he is.)

I don’t know, maybe it’s because I’m Irish and used to seeing all sorts of haha jokes about how weird our names are etc but yet I’m always surprised how surprised people are when I say that I find Welsh a pretty easy language to get the gist of. It makes sense! Welsh is something I know very little of but yet I find it easy enough to parse out the pronunciation of. I don’t always know what things mean but I’m not usually that far off in how they should be said.

[luceafarul-de-dimineata]

Since the word 'lucifer' means morning star in Latin, I like to imagine that everything that happened in "Luceafărul" by Mihai Eminescu cannonically happened to Lucifer from whb.

Lucifer = Luceafărul = Hyperion confirmed

Learning Romanian through Romanian music - Carla's Dreams - Eroina

Technically speaking this song is made by a band from the Republic of Moldova, but if you are learning Romanian you will not sense the difference. Most important words to remember: “eroina” – means female hero or heroine The song uses the Romanian similarity between the words heroin (“heroină”) and heroine (“eroină”) to suggest the addiction for love. Articles: a heroine (o eroină), the…
