Hello everyone. I'm from Costa Rica....i know very far from Romania; nevertheless I really appreciate romanian culture and above all, romanian language. I've been trying to learn by myself, and even though spanish and romanian are both romantic languages, it's hard to learn on one's own. But I'm happy that forums like this exist where people from all over the world can get together and learn from each other. So I hope I can learn from you guys as well as you guys can learn from me if you want to know anything in spanish. Cheers!
Otto

Otto, te cuento que ya veras que el espanol y el rumano son MUY parecidos y se que en poco tiempo vas a encontrar muchisimas palabras parecidas entre los dos idiomas.
Yo soy de la Argentina y tambien pensaba que eran muy distintos, pero poco a poco, con la ayuda de este sitio, me di cuenta de lo facil que es.
Si alguna vez necesites ayuda, decime, porque he encontrado que tiene mas sentido aprender el rumano en espanol.
Buena suerte con todo y espero "verte" pronto por aca!

I had some lyrics translated for me a few weeks on here and these two lines confused me. Would anyone mind explaining the use and meaning of "ce" in these?
Sunt poveşti ce ard neîncetat
Poveşti ce nasc din iubire
I only know of "ce" meaning what or how. I don't understand why they're used here. -

Thank you!
So, using "că" in these lines would be correct also, right? Are there specific times when you use "ce" in place of "că", or is it just a personal choice? -

Goog morning from over here
Ce & Care are interchangeable. BUT, they are not interchangeable with că.
Care is the norm:
Sunt povești care ard neîncetat.
Ce is the poetic sinonim:
Povești ce ard neîncetat.
Both can be translated to english with which &that, but only if you deal with defining/non-defining relative clauses.
When you have that as introducing a Direct Object clause(for example) then, in Romanian, it becomes că:
He told me that he was sick.
El mi-a spus că era bolnav.
I hope things are clear now -
Thank you so much! I understand now.

Hi! I have 2 rather simple questions:
is there a word that sounds like bucur or bucuri, what does it mean?
how to say "moonshiny night" in Romanian? -
Hi!
1. Yes, there is. The verb a se bucura- to enjoy ( the meaning it's rather to rejoice) in the present tense, first and second person singular.
Eu mă bucur
Tu te bucuri
El/Ea se bucură
Noi ne bucurăm
Voi vă bucurați
Ei/Ele se bucură
2. moonshiny night does not have an equivalent fixed expression in Romanian, therefore you translate it by what it expresses and usually it results in a poetic way of expressing it: noapte cu lună strălucitoare, noapte luminată de lună, noapte scăldată de lună, etc
I hope my answer helped -
Hello Dya,
You often say that we can ask you for information about Romania and Romanian culture. I am wondering if you could translate an easy recipe for mici(mititei).
I know this is beyond what you normally do here, but it would be so helpful. My boyfriend will think I'm wonderful.

Hello!
Oh, my God, what you're asking is kind of impossible to do and I'll tell you why!
It's not dificult for me to translate a recipe and I found several recipes for mititei, no problem from the translation point of vie. But I've heard and I've read about countless Romanians living outside Romania(especially on the American continent) who tried every recipe they found and they knew and the final product just doesn't taste like mititei at all. They all describe the final outcome as soemthing close to meatballs and having nothing to do with the familiar taste...I don't know why this happens, it could be because of the meat itself which probably tastes a little bit different in each area (due to what the animals are fed with, the water they drink, I don't know) it could be something else but the point is that apparently it's very hard to make them taste like home. Now if there is someone out there who managed to prepare the meat right, I could't find a testimony on the internet but I'll keep looking.
If you really want to try, I can look for a recipe and translate it for you, just tell me and I'll do so. But what I would actually advise you to do is to try and find a Romanian shop somewhere in your area. If they don't sell mititei already made for you to put on the grill, maybe they sell all the ingredients brought from here and that way you'll at least have an advantage in the taste issue
Let me know about your decision. And let me tell you, if your boyfriend is Romanian and if you manage to do that and the mititei to taste like here, he'll love you even more -
Buna la toti,
Do romanians use the following sayings at the clubs?
Is there a cover charge? How much is the cover charge?
would it be correct to say
Este o taxa = Is there a cover charge?
cat de mult e taxa - how much is the cover charge?
also is this correct
in fiecare data ca te vad, iei respirația mea departe = every time I see you, you take my breath away.
appreciate the help.
Mersi, -
Hello!
Cover charge for clubs is simply reffered to as "intrare". So you'd ask: "Cât este intrarea?”
If you want to know if there is a cover charge you ask: ”Se plătește intrarea?” (Do you pay for ”entrance”?- would be the word-by-word translation)
As for the second one, the equivalent is:
every time I see you, you take my breath away- de fiecare dată când te văd, mi se taie răsuflarea
