Learn Romanian

Seven short lessons. Standard spelling, with diacritics. Not a course, and not a promise that you will be fluent.

These sit next to the word list and the stories. Each page has examples in Romanian and English, then a tiny practice. The translator uses the same stock of words. Regional notes, when they appear, are the honest few — pâine heard as pâne, and the rest on dialects.
